Signature Issues

Rural Economic Development – Doherty said she would help uplift rural areas through small business development, education, job training and by “investment in innovative energy solutions.”

Good Governance and Promoting Democracy – Doherty would push for the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, stop partisan gerrymandering of political districts and to ban stock trading by politicians. “Congress is not a place for folks to go get rich,” Doherty wrote in a press release. “Your only thought in Washington should be on the folks back home, the people and families you serve. It’s their money you should be worried about, not your own.”

Bodily Autonomy and Privacy – Doherty would work to codify the right to privacy that had been long upheld under Roe v Wade. In a press release, she blasted her opponent as an “anti-choice extremist who wants to criminalize all abortion care, even in cases of rape, incest, child sex abuse and the life of the mother.”

Experience

At the time of the campaign, Doherty was an educational consultant with Doherty Educational Consultants.
