I will work to restore the rights that have been stripped away from Iowans in the past decade - worker's rights, women's rights, voter's rights and LGBTQ rights. An LGBTQ woman over the age of 18 with a union job has been deprived of rights in ALL of these areas!

Chronically underfunding public education at all levels in IOWA has led to a slide from 1st in the nation to 24th. If mediocrity was the goal, congratulations. We must provide the tools for the children of Iowa to complete in a global job market.

The crisis of climate change is upon us, and we must work to prepare for and mitigate the impacts of the new more violent climate.
Education, the rights we have lost in Iowa, and making Iowa an inclusive and welcoming place to prevent the loss of young, educated workers who are currently going elsewhere for opportunity and a better quality of life.
