priorities

child welfare

Since her election to Congress in 2010, Karen has made improving the lives of all of America’s children her passion. She co-founded the Congressional Caucus on Foster Youth where she brought Democratic and Republican members of Congress together to propose common sense legislation to benefit our nation’s children.

 

intellectual property

Karen sits on the House Judiciary Committee, where she has direct say over laws that protect our entertainment industry. In order to protect our film industry, Karen supports efforts to have tougher enforcement of the Anti-Camcording Law. People who sneak into theaters to record films not only are passing on a poor quality copy of movies to customers, but they are taking money directly out of our economy.

 

environment

Karen believes that all Americans should have access to clean air and water and open space where they can play and enjoy with their friends and family.
