Klobuchar is not for free health care, let alone for illegals. She voted with Trump 31% of the time in the Senate.
She has sponsored 111 pieces of bipartisan legislation that have been signed into law.
In February 2019 Klobuchar came out against tuition free, four-year college for all, while saying she supports free community colleges.
In January 2019, following
Juan Guaidó's self-declaration as interim
President of Venezuela, Klobuchar told
HuffPost that she supported the opposition to
Nicolás Maduro.
She supports universal background checks for all gun purchases and banning a subgroup of military style weapons.
In 2010, Klobuchar opposed the
Trans-Pacific Partnership "because she [had] concerns about whether the proposed legislation [was] strong enough for American workers".
Klobuchar was asked how she would vote on the
Green New Deal if it came up for a vote in the Senate, replying, "I see it as aspirational, I see it as a jump start. So I would vote yes, but I would also, if it got down to the nitty-gritty of an actual legislation as opposed to, ‘oh, here are some goals we have,’ that would be different for me." Klobuchar added that she was "for a jump-start of the discussion" as espoused in the Green New Deal's framework by fellow senator
Ed Markey.
, Klobuchar and
Marco Rubio unveiled the Supporting Veterans in STEM Careers Act, a bill aimed at assisting veterans who are going back into the workforce through directing the
National Science Foundation to advocate for veterans to study and pursue careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The bill also mandated the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) create a working group that would organize programs of the federal government to help with transitioning and training of veterans for STEM careers. The bill unanimously cleared the Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee in July 2019. Klobuchar stated that she was satisfied by the bill passing in the committee as it would allow them to "help support veterans in their transition to civilian life– benefiting veterans, their families, communities, and our whole economy."
In a July 2018 interview, when asked about eliminating
Immigration and Customs Enforcement amid other Democrats supporting abolishing the agency, Klobuchar stated, "I think what has to change are the policies, and the people that are making these policies are making horrendous decisions like separating kids from their parents." She added that the US would always "need immigration enforcement" and referred to America as "a major country with major borders", thereafter condemning the Trump administration's rhetoric on immigration: "I am just appalled by how this administration has been talking about immigrants. They don't diminish America, they are America."

I still plan to vote for Trump, though.
