I am currently licensed as an Attorney At Law and a Registered Nurse in the State of Ohio. During Law School I was the Commanding Officer of the Armored Cavalry National Guard Troop in Painesville Ohio.
I believe health care is a right and that Medicare for All is the proper approach to remedy the health care crisis that plagues America. I believe that Green Energy jobs are critical to our economy and advocate electric commuter rail from Cleveland to Conneaut and solar panels on top of every government building in Ohio.
Lastly I believe that all Americans distrust our government for good reason. Money has permeated every level of government and therefore I will take No Money From Nobody as I did in previous successful elections. I was elected and re-elected to the five county 11th District Court of Appeals that encompasses most of the newly gerrymandered 14 th Congressional district. .
I am the Senior Vice Commander of Chagrin Falls VFW Post 12067; a eucharistic minister at Saint Joan of Arc Church, and have coached boys baseball and girls basketball and softball. I founded and ran a restaurant known as O'Neill's Landing in Geneva On the Lake and we employed 25 workers for ten years. I have four kids.- Medicare for all. As an emergency room nurse I have seen firsthand the tragedy of uninsured Americans who arrive too late because they did not have insurance. A full 60% of Americans pay for Medicare insurance but cannot access coverage until they are senior citizens. Health care is a right in America and far too many citizens live their life in fear of a medical crisis that will take away their savings and their home. Medicare for all, without limitation is the answer.
- I believe in green energy and believe the federal government is failing to provide intelligent answers. Let me give you an example The Red Line of the Regional Transit Authority that is funded by federal dollars....starts at Tower City in Cleveland and ends nine miles later in East Cleveland. That is truly stupid. What happened to the commuters in Euclid, Willoughby, Painesville, Mentor and Ashtabula? They, along with thousands of others are in a daily traffic jam on Route 2. We need to extend solar powered high speed commuter rail east to Conneaut. It saves the environment, provides jobs and improves the quality of life. it brings rural workers to urban jobs. A Nursing Assistant from Geneva can then work at University Hospital.
- No money From Nobody. Everyone distrusts our government at all levels and there is a good reason for that distrust. Money has provided access to government and that is wrong. When I ran for the Supreme Court of Ohio I took no money from nobody. I rans against and defeated an incumbent who spent $2-million on television to attempt to buy his seat. That is wrong, and when I am elected in November 2026 voters will once again know that I cannot be bought.
