| Collapse all
- I will bring real representation to the people who live in House District 90, a district that has been underrepresented for far too long.
- I will fight for public schools and educators and against vouchers that hurt working families, especially those families in our rural communities.
- I believe in ensuring that healthcare is a right and not a privilege, and believe we need to stop the government overreach into the personal relationship between a woman and her doctor.
