Madeleine's Top Priorities

Ethics and Good Government

Rep. Dean believes in treating everyone with decency – and that doing so can help us develop a more honest, respectful, and inclusive political system.

Gun Violence Prevention

Gun violence rates in America are hundreds of times higher than in other industrialized countries – and it’s time we change that.

Economy

As a member of the Financial Services Committee – as well as the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations and the Subcommittee on Diversity and Inclusion – Rep. Dean works to create an economy that serves everyone. 

Education

Since 2006, student debt in America has nearly tripled; almost 45 million borrowers owe $1.6 trillion, and the average borrower owes close to $33,000 and pays nearly $400 per month in debt service.

Environment

Rep. Dean believes that the protection of our planet and environmental stewardship are some of government’s core responsibilities. She values our natural spaces and supports efforts to preserve vulnerable species.

Veterans

The men and women who don our country’s uniform deserve our full support – during their service and beyond.

Criminal Justice Reform

Rep. Dean understands that for government to work well, decision-makers need the most up-to-date data and evidence.
