Mark Moran for U.S. Senate - Virginia 2026

Our political system is broken because corporations have more power than we the people - something the founding fathers could never have envisioned. Candidates, especially for Senate races, sell out to corporations and enrich a consultant class.

Unlike my opponent whose donor list is Wall Street CEOs, corporate PACs, and Dominion Energy, I can't be bought.

I am running to end this corruption by passing the and creating a public funding system on Day One, ensuring politicians serve you, not their donors. This is the only path to reclaiming our democracy.

Because of my commitment to this fight, I am not accepting money from:

Corporate PACs (Mark Warner has taken $3.76 million)
AIPAC (or any other foreign countries or their domestic lobbying PACs) (Mark Warner has taken $2.66 million from the Israel lobby)
Dominion Energy (Mark Warner has taken $303,393 - his #1 career contributor)
Palantir (Mark Warner has taken $37,000 from Palantir CEO)

PUTTING PATIENTS OVER SHAREHOLDERS

In January 2021, I was a junior investment banker working on the acquisition of a non-profit healthcare insurer by Molina Healthcare - an almost $8 billion publicly traded Medicaid company. It was around 3am, working on a Microsoft Excel model, where this idea was born. I changed one number in one cell - the reimbursement rate for End-Stage Renal Disease - and realized I was determining whether poor Black patients in inner-city Chicago would get the care they needed to live. I made a promise that night. This policy is the result of that promise.

HEALTHCARE AS A RIGHT: MEDICARE FOR ALL

After sixteen years of Mark Warner's leadership, over 500,000 Virginians still lack health insurance. Medicare for All would provide comprehensive coverage for every resident - no premiums, no deductibles, no copays. Studies show single-payer systems save money while covering everyone.

THE PEOPLE'S PROSECUTOR: Why I'm Running to Prosecute Corruption, Not Just Complain About It

Everyone knows Washington is corrupt. Everyone knows money buys access, access buys influence, and influence buys policy. I'm not running to join that system. I'm running to prosecute it.

TAX DATA CENTERS, FUND EDUCATION

A free and fair society cannot exist if only a small elite are afforded the opportunity of higher education. My vision is simple and revolutionary: Data centers will pay for free education in America. We will tax their electricity use and revenue to create a National College Trust Fund that provides free community college for every American, a debt-free path to a degree, and free tuition at public HBCUs.

MAKE HOME OWNERSHIP ACHIEVABLE

For too many people in Virginia, the dream of owning a home feels like it's slipping further out of reach. Meanwhile, Wall Street profits as corporations like Blackstone buy out single family homes. We will use the tax code to structurally take back power from corporations and restore it to the people through the Republic Ownership Act, making rent tax deductible, and The Key Credit - the largest home ownership initiative of our generation.

ABOLISH THE SURVEILLANCE STATE...AND OF COURSE ICE

Americans are naturally rebellious, and we hold freedom sacred. But we are dangerously close to a surveillance state that would make our Founding Fathers revolt. Right now, ICE uses technology from Palantir, the same company building mass surveillance infrastructure all over the country. Every action you take is monitored, be it Flock cameras tracking your license plate or facial recognition systems scanning your face and cataloguing your movements without your consent. All of this data flows into federal agencies with zero accountability. This isn't just about immigration enforcement. This is about whether we will live in a free society or a monitored one.

WOMEN - YOUR BODY, YOUR CHOICE...NOT THE GOVERNMENT'S

The idea that a bureaucrat or compromised politician in DC could have more say over women's bodies than they do...it's a betrayal of everything this country is supposed to stand for. And it's not a hypothetical anymore. They have a 900-page playbook...it's called Project 2025...and they're using it to come for our freedom. This isn't a debate. It's a fight for control.

PRO LABOR, PRO VIRGINIA

My grandfather was head of the Brookline, Massachusetts firefighters union (IAFF Local 950). When he would go to city hall they'd say 'Oh [expletive] here's Moran again' and that's what I'm going to do - be a thorn in other senators' sides. It's not a political position for me. It's in my blood.

PRO 2A, ANTI THE SURVEILLANCE STATE

My views on the Second Amendment have evolved. I am now an NRA and USCCA (United States Concealed Carry Association) member. The Second Amendment isn't about hunting. It's about power...the people's power. It's the final check on a government that seeks to control its citizens. It's exactly what Jefferson warned us about.

THE DOLLAR STORE DECEPTION: A HOSTILE TAKEOVER OF RURAL AMERICA

Dollar General and Dollar Tree now operate more than 35,000 stores nationwide - more locations than McDonald's and Starbucks combined. Their business model: target a rural town, open lower-priced stores, and starve out the local mom-and-pop grocery. According to the USDA, when a dollar store moves into a rural community, the local grocer is nearly three times more likely to go out of business.

66 Y/O AGE LIMIT (BASED ON MATH & LOGIC)

Our representatives should reflect the people they serve. A maximum age limit of 66 years for federal elected officials isn't arbitrary - it's mathematically sound and grounded in fairness. Based on the 2024 census, the median age of the voting population is 47.4 years. Add one standard deviation (18.8 years), and you get 66.2 years. This covers approximately 80% of the voting population, ensuring our leaders represent the demographic reality of America while preventing lifetime career politicians from clinging to power decades past their prime.

A REVOLUTIONARY CRYPTO POLICY FOR AMERICA

Making America the undisputed home of crypto with a 10% flat tax, blockchain transparency for campaign finance, and unleashing DeFi to break Wall Street's chokehold. We're generating $10-30 billion in new tax revenue while creating the most transparent government in human history.

LOVING DAY: MAKING JUNE 12TH A FEDERAL HOLIDAY

June 12, 1967: Loving v. Virginia struck down every law banning interracial marriage in America. Richard and Mildred Loving were sentenced to prison for being married. The Supreme Court said that was unconstitutional. I'm introducing legislation to make June 12th a federal holiday.

Single Issue Bills

Laws should be clear enough for the public to understand what their elected representatives actually voted for. We see massive bills bundling unrelated provisions together, which allows Representatives to hide corrupt policy in legislation that no one actually reads.

We should require legislation to focus on one subject at a time and make lawmakers vote separately on major policy choices, so that debates are honest and transparent.

Virginia Court of Digital Rights

We have centuries of law protecting property and safeguarding our liberty, but in the digital world, we have chaos. Our most valuable property (our ideas and data) exist in a lawless frontier governed by lengthy terms and conditions set by big tech corporations.

We will establish the Virginia Court of Digital Rights to ensure that the laws of our democracy expand into the digital age.

Nine judges appointed by the Governor of Virginia, with consent from the General Assembly
Mandatory twelve-person juries
Staggered ten-year terms
Jurisdiction over digital property, AI, cryptocurrency, data privacy, and algorithmic accountability

BANNING THE NICKEL

The nickel costs 14 cents to make, it's worth 5 cents.
Round to the dime, save taxpayers $100+ million annually.

Change that makes sense.
