My life is about service and I'm still at it. Today most of my time is devoted to helping people navigate the Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security mazes
This campaign is about character. The people of the 10th District are tired of partisan politics. They feel the USA is not being governed for them, but instead for the rich, well connected insiders who seem to be reaping most of the economic gains and who, when things go wrong aren't held accountable, but are shielded from the damage they caused while the general population continues to suffer.
The District needs a leader who prioritize principles over politics; that has integrity; that believes in service before self; that can connect with all people across the District; that has the courage to say no to policies harmful to the people in District 10; and has the knowledge, skills and abilities to take on challenges associated with things like artificial intelligence, healthcare reform, economic and political reform.
Now, more than ever, we need to bring more of our Government closer to home, back to the people it is intended to serve.
And I want to be their candidate to do so.- I am dedicated to restoring trust in government by serving all constituents with integrity, courage, and a commitment to addressing the needs of working people
- We need a government that works for everybody - not just the well connected. We need to bring more of our government closer to home, back to the people it's intended to serve.
- Our current Congressman has lost touch with the citizens in this District prioritizing his own party's interests over the interests of those he was elected to serve. He's suppose to serve all voters, not just the voters that voted for him.
