I am passionate about everything that will make your life better. Less Money on Bombs, More Money on Moms! I am not some worthless politician who is in it for money and/or clout. I have no big money backers and I never will.
Tell me about what you want at oklahomafight.com
I look up to my parents, both are very hard workers who have done their best to love and raise their three children. I also look up to influential figures such as Bernie Sanders and FDR.

I don't necessarily want to follow an example though, I want to be the example. I've never truly had people I looked up to at any point in my life; outside my family, of course.

If I was forced to pick then I would choose the Kookaburra bird, it always seems like it's having a good time with its big laugh, and a flock of them is called a riot. Fun.
Selflessness and an indomitable will to see good things done. That will MUST be tied to action and not just words. You are here for the people, not yourself.
Advocate and legislate for the interests of their constituents. They are duly elected and must endeavor to fulfill the wishes of the people they represent.
One that inspires others to continue building a better world once I'm buried in the ground.
Humanity is such an anomaly for sentient life on Earth, and we must do everything we can to not only ensure our existence carries on, but that it's one of peace and joy.
The May 3rd tornado here in Oklahoma. It was a massive F5 tornado that reached wind speeds of 321 mph, which were the fastest ever recorded on Earth at the time. I was 10 years old and it left me terrified of thunderstorms for a couple years. I got over it by my teens since there were many other lesser tornados by then, being in Oklahoma and all.

I was only 6 at the time of the Murrah building bombing and don't recall much as I was too young. I learned more about it later, of course.
I got my first job at 16 and it was at a grocery store in my hometown of Anadarko. It was a lot of fun as several of my friends worked there and we had good managers. We'd make frito chili pie and hot dogs regularly in a crock pot we had stashed in the back. I worked there until I was 18 and graduated, it was good times.
I like many books, none are my favorite though.

I enjoy the ongoing series Dungeon Crawler Carl.
I still remember going to midnight releases with all my cousins for the Harry Potter books, it was so much fun. Shame J.K. Rowling is a world class loser and ruined them for me.

Lately I'm trying to be more adult in my choices, next on the docket I'll be looking into the works of Jane McAlevey. -- Shoutouts to Graham Platner for talking about her on the Majority Report and letting me know she exists.
I'm a transwoman. I was closeted until the age of 29 due to my own rampant cowardice as well as the bigotries in society. I have a deeply internalized philosophy that enables me to overcome the fear inherit to my core nature though.

It is that of the Conquering Spirit. It's not a creed, or anything grand, it's just a feeling. That feeling you get as you overcome something you thought impossible, when you defy your own expectations and realize you are simply more than you thought.
It was through this that I took the chance and came out to my family. While times are harder now for trans people then they were 7 years ago (I'm 36), part of the reason I seek office to impart this will to those who find themselves oppressed.
They are not only worth more than what they get, but their self is greater than even they realize. My struggle becomes naught as others join me, and we find a place and peace in the world.


Also money, money is always a struggle, especially now with all these goddang billionaires eating it all up.
It is large and diverse. It can give meaningful rise to voices that would otherwise be squashed in spite of ruthless and bigoted gerrymandering.
These next two election cycles (2026, 2028) will determine the direction our country takes for the next century. Our greatest challenges are the hate and vitriol dividing us as well as the hive mind structure our parties operate under. Republicans are all spineless, they bend whichever way Trump wants them to. Democrats are feckless as they are beholden to the ultra wealthy and the status quo.

We must stop viewing our lives through the lens of "well things could be worse" and start thinking about how we can make our lives easier.

AI should be used to make our lives easier --shorter work days and work weeks. It can empower every single aspect of our society. Farmers, office workers, manufacturing, this, and that.

We must move towards progress so over this next decade we can achieve greatness. Higher wages, easier jobs, more food, stronger social security, affordable house, no wars, and more.

The fear we live under shall be broken. You who are reading this, understand you are worth more, and you deserve more.
Once you turn 70 you should be barred from running.
Retire and enjoy your life, or do meaningful work in a non elected capacity.
I work at an Amazon distribution facility. As an Oklahoman, we are not paid the same wages that individuals in other states make.

We are paid less.

This is because Oklahoma has a "lower standard of living" compared to other states in regards to costs. So Amazon uses this to depress our wages despite the fact our facility out-performs others, even ones that are twice our size. So inferior pay for superior work.
When I bring this up to coworkers, I have been told that we simply deserve less because we are Oklahomans.

That we simply have to "eat sh*t".

This mind set is prevalent among my coworkers which is a travesty. It is a major part of the reason why I decided to run for office. For too long people have been pressed down by the ultra wealthy so that our labor can be exploited and our wages stolen.

NO MORE, YOU DESERVE MORE, YOU ARE WORTH MORE.
Compromise must be done in the interest of citizens, not mega corporations seeking to line their pockets.

It is desirable if it uplifts the people of this country, undesirable if it doesn't.

If one side says we can end all baseline hunger and we should do that, there shouldn't be compromise that feeds maybe a few people, while leaving others to waste away.
Taxes are the most fundamental way a government pays for itself. Only doing tax breaks for the people who hold the majority of the money in this country is abysmal. Taxes pay for roads, food, healthcare, schooling, and more. We must reclaim this wealth for regular people, and taxes at the most base level are a direct form of wealth redistribution.

So we raise revenue via taxes on the wealthy and use that money to alleviate financial burdens on everybody else.
Deliberately and responsibly.

We should be rooting out corruption in all forms.
The supreme court is corrupt, our market is no longer free due to the corruption of those in power, Trump is corrupt, the majority of lawmakers are corrupt, whole industries are corrupt. The gig economy is a black eye upon the people of this country. Private Equity is an anchor upon the availability of family housing. They are turning us all into renters and never owners.
The department of defense has not had an accurate budget for years and years. Where is all the money going and whose pocket is it lining.

There is so very much to do.
I came out as trans, survived the subsequent fallout. Dropped 100 lbs while surviving that fallout. Then got a steady job at Amazon in 2020, finished my degree, and now I'm going to be the next elected member of congress for district 3 in Oklahoma, because spineless Frank Lucas is done and Trump is done.
Really I guess the accomplishment is still on going, ask me when I'm 70 and either dead or retired.
Keeping them free and fair. Mail in ballots are imperative for increasing participation. I would seek to protect that as an option as Trump is trying to destroy it in order to do voter suppression.
