Said, "Hard work is part of our identity, and I’ll support policies that help families build stability and opportunity by strengthening small businesses, expanding access to childcare, and easing the cost of living so people can get ahead, not just get by."

Supports making homeownership more affordable, protecting renters, and promoting smart growth in neighborhoods.

Said, "I believe in the value of hard work and fair pay. Unions built the middle class and continue to protect the rights and safety of working people. My father was a union president, and I saw firsthand how strong unions bring dignity, stability, and opportunity to families and entire communities. I’ll always stand with workers who want a fair wage, safe conditions, and a voice on the job."

As of March 10, 2026, Alisha Dawn Chaffin’s website did not contain information on this issue.

Said, "Healthcare should be a right, not a privilege. In an environment where insurance premiums are skyrocketing, I will support policies to bring down healthcare costs so families don’t have to choose between getting medical care and putting food on the table. We must make prescriptions affordable, strengthen mental health care for children and adults, and protect access to quality care in rural communities so every Kentuckian deserves the chance to stay healthy and thrive."

Said, "Every child deserves access to a quality public education, no matter where they live. I’ll stand up for our public schools, teachers, and support staff and make sure classrooms have the tools they need to help every student succeed."
