| Collapse all
- I'm Experienced. I have spent 23 years in public service working inside the systems people rely on, across multiple federal departments and agencies that affect everyday lives. I have worked to ensure people in underserved and rural communities could access life-saving care and services, fought corporate healthcare providers so patients could receive the treatment they needed, and helped enforce civil rights protections for children with disabilities in our public schools. This district does not need another candidate learning on the job. It needs someone who understands how government works, what happens when services are stripped away, and how to make public institutions deliver for the people they are meant to serve.
- Tested in Real Fights and Ready for this Moment. My family lost its farm to corporate agriculture, and even after we moved for factory work, we still became homeless. I come to this race shaped by the consequences of an economy and a political system that have failed working people for far too long. What happened to my family 30 years ago is still happening to more and more people today. Costs keep rising, rights keep getting chipped away, and job-killing technologies like AI threaten to push even more working people aside. This is not a moment for politics as usual or wishful thinking. It is a moment to put the struggles of working people on the floor of the House and fight for them with urgency, clarity, and force.
- Not for Sale: I do not take corporate PAC money, because the people of this district deserve to know exactly who their representative answers to. I am running to serve working families, seniors, veterans, farmers, and communities that have been treated like an afterthought, not wealthy donors, corporate interests, or political insiders. I am not running to join the system as it is. I am running to fight for the people it has ignored.
