Border security and immigration control
No more anchor babies
Codify asylum procedings to clarify that anyone who has passed thru another nation to reach our border can't claim
asylum because they could have claimed asylum in the intervening nation(s)
Continue deportation programs,
eliminate benefits for illegals (see deficit)
Increase, possibly fast-track Legal Immigration.


Medicare for all.
Cost savings by
allowing interstate competition,
breaking up large corporations,
opening all prescriptions to competitive pricing,
vigorous investigations to reduce fraud
raising the income threshhold for Medicare taxes
open pricing for common tests and procedures, open ratings for hospitals

Reduce the deficit by
Requiring all departments to follow strict accounting procedures
Allowing departments such as Social Security and Medicare to share data with Homeland Security and IRS, eliminate payouts to illegal aliens, people receiving benefits in multiple states, fictitious people and other instances of fraud
Reducing DoD budget by eliminating installations, reducing bases, and eliminating foreign military aid where we have no compelling interest
Require all future weapons in development to be rugged, field- maintainable, and able to be mass produced
Recommit to nuclear weapons treaties, and stick to those agreements to make the USA "agreement capable" again
Eliminate CIA field ops and mercs. No more black ops etc. All ops to go thru the formal military.
Simplify the business tax code, eliminate tax loopholes and subsidies, tax financial transactions directly
Upgrade military bases at home
Continue with Gabbard's program to reduce ODNI, and reduce bureaucracy of other "security" institutions.

Reindustrialization
Reindustrialize America sector-by-sector with sector-targeted tariffs (example: steel imports, and imports of building and infrastructure products, metal products, mechanical equipment, and automotive/ transportation) and preferred- rate government loans for investment.

Environment and climate change
Create programs and spend monies on programs previously detailed, such ax
Better forest management on Federal lands
Regenerative farming subsidies (but cap payouts so small farmers benefut more)
Subsidies for solar below approximately 40deg latitude
Rate-favored loans for building natgas fueled power plants near point of origin, and hooking them into grid
Rate-favored loans for grid upgrades
Special programs for restoration of severely degraded areas

Health
MAHA

My big priority would be Budget, Deficit, Debt
Balanced (or Surplus) Budget

> No department or Agency can have increased spending unless total Budget has Fiscal Year Surplus of at least 1% of Total current Debt.
> No Department or Agency can increase spending beyond certain thresholds. Those currently exceeding threasholds must cut the excess by half. The thresholds would be as follows: the proportion of Total Federal FY Budget that the Department had in FY2006. The dollar amount would allow for a specific inflation increase, equal to either 1. The increase in DoD spending from FY2006 to FY2024, or 2. the CPI from same time span, whichever is less.

There are two ways to reduce the deficit: raise revenues and reduce spending.

Raising revenues could mean raising taxes,

I would also require all students to turn in their cellphones during school hours. But since cellphones HAVE captured abusive teacher behavior, have school (and bus, and bathroom) events recorded.

Interesting idea.
Since supplements seem to fall in between where would they go?
