On the issues

The following positions are Miller's own statements, provided through her campaign website via BallotReady.

Consumer protection and the economy: Miller said she would use the attorney general's antitrust authority to ensure a competitive market. She said she would launch investigations into the grocery supply chain to uncover illegal price gouging and demand transparency from large corporations on rising prices.

Criminal justice and public safety: Miller said she would target violent criminal networks, human trafficking rings and fentanyl trafficking. She said she would prioritize prosecution of crimes against children and domestic violence, protect seniors from elder fraud and aggressively prosecute robocall operations and identity theft. She also said she would promote evidence-based policies to reduce recidivism.

Voting rights: Miller said she would advocate for full access to voting, including protecting weekend and early voting, expanding mail-in voting and securing convenient drop box locations.

Abortion rights: Miller said she would use her legal background in constitutional law to fight against efforts to block access to abortion.

Healthcare: Miller said she would fight to expand Medicaid and increase access to prenatal and postpartum healthcare.

The attorney general can enforce applicable laws, represent the state and pursue litigation within the office’s authority. Changes to taxes, public benefits or school funding generally require legislation and budget decisions; the attorney general cannot enact them alone.
