TOGETHER
We Can Make a Difference
US House of Representatives, CA-14
Leadership for the Future
In this moment, the District deserves a Representative who will fight for affordable healthcare, jobs, voter protections, and return to government for the people by the people.
One who will engage in real conversations with Democratic, Independent, and Republicans to find common ground and common sense solutions.
District 14 deserves a representative with the technical expertise and operational discipline to deliver real-world solutions. Carin Elam is running to bridge the gap between policy and performance.
Focused on Solutions
Lowering Cost of Living
Counter For-Profit Incentives in Healthcare
Realign healthcare systems that prioritize patient outcomes and affordability over corporate dividends and stockholder profits.
Reining in Insurance Overreach
Fight for federal oversight to prevent arbitrary rate hikes on home and auto policies that ignore actual risk history.
Eliminating Tariff Tax
Remove broad tariffs that function as hidden taxes on East Bay families. Restoring trade stability with partners like Canada and Mexico. Lowering costs on everything from building materials to kitchen essentials.
Why Carin
Carin began her long career in business and technology consulting working with healthcare clients, both in hospitals and with health insurance companies. She has the professional literacy to move the U.S. from a purely for-profit healthcare model to an expanded choice model in which affordable universal healthcare is an option.
Future-proofing Local Jobs
AI-Resilient Workforce
Ensure data center and tech development in our district creates high-wage trades that cannot be automated. Carin will treat AI as a tool for empowerment, not displacement.
Protecting Infrastructure Investments
Safeguarding Inflation Reduction Act funding to ensure East Bay leads in clean energy innovation, EVs, and home efficiency.
Why Carin
Leading Workforce and Business Development at LightHouse for the Blind & Visually Impaired, she gained valuable experience with federal programs like AbilityOne. She knows how to build career pathways that move individuals from federal assistance to economic independence.
Holding Government Accountable
Restoring The Rule Of Law
Holding the federal government to a strict culture of compliance. No office is above the law, and I will fight the misuse of executive powers like sweeping pardons.
Ending Judicial Weaponization
Stopping the use of the judiciary to target political opponents and refocusing our legal institutions on the impartial administration of justice.
Why Carin
Studying International and European Governance give me the background to demand transparency and ensure organizations adhere to regulatory
standards.
Protecting Safe & Easy Voting
Protecting the Right to Vote
Carin will fight for federal protections to ensure every eligible citizen - including the elderly, college students, service members, their families, and naturalized citizens - can safely and easily cast their ballot.
Protecting Election Infrastructure
Advocating for federal standards supporting paper trails, robust audits, and modern cybersecurity to protect our voting systems against both foreign and domestic interference.
Strengthening Federal Oversight
While election administration is a state responsibility, the federal government has a duty of oversight. Carin will push for transparent, non-partisan standards that remove political bias from the process. Congress needs to end its grandstanding for political gain.
Why Carin
Carin researched and wrote a Master’s thesis regarding the use of voter suppression to swing elections. She worked directly with fellow citizens overseas, helping them navigate the complexities of participating in our democratic processes from abroad.
