Health care access

Education funding and outcomes

Rural broadband expansion
Education. I learned the importance of non-traditional education opportunities from my mother, who earned a doctorate in three years as a single mom with three boys aged 6-10.

Health care access. I'm retired Army and have TriCare coverage. This is the health care access every American needs and deserves. It's a human right.

Rural broadband: I work from home as a consultant. People in rural parts of my district could do the same if they had broadband internet service. It would also improve education outcomes and allow remote medical care that would improve quality of life in remote areas.
I'm a Christian in the "do as Jesus asked us" sense. I look up to and would follow someone who thinks salvation lies in helping the least among us and treating each other as we would want to be treated.
No way there could be just one.
I would rely on the Army Core Values: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, Personal Courage.
Thoughtfulness. Reliance on science and evidence. Concern for constituents. Broad policy knowledge.
In the case of state legislator, it's representing the people in the District. All of them. This is the only duty and obligation, but it is non-negotiable.
A feeling among constituents that agree or disagree I listened to them and acted on what I heard.
Watching Americans land two men on the moon who then went for a stroll in environmental suits.
Counter work in high school at an ice cream parlor. Seventy-nine cents an hour, I think. Paid enough to fund a move and pizza date every week. Did this two years and moved up into other restaurant jobs until I enlisted.
I burned the spaghetti sauce.
Thanksgiving. Family.
I read everything I can get my hands on, so naming a single favorite just won't work. But if I have to I'd say "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" by William Shirer. It was the first history book I ever read (at 14) and it provides a road map to how economic upheaval and bigotry can lead to authoritarianism and fascism.
Superman.
My vintage US Army recruiting poster. It was a gift from my brother.
"Lawyers, Guns and Money" by Warren Zevon jumps into my ear worm a lot.
Keeping organized.
Senators never have to run for reelection with a higher office (e.g., Governor) also on the ballot.
Yes, it could help. But we need legislatures whose members have different experiences and perspectives. Too many attorneys, for example, limits the range of solutions considered.
Climate change, just like every other state. But racism is right up there.
Governors should propose policy and budgets and legislators should fine tune. They should work together.
Of course. Legislators represent districts with diverging interests. They have to discuss how policy will affect districts differently and find compromises. This means developing relationships.
Independent commission with heavy citizen involvement. Politicians should not choose their voters.
Environment, courts and justice, military department.
Yes. Any role.
Elizabeth Warren.
Not on my radar at this time.
I've heard stories that I cannot verify of race-based voter intimidation (you won'd get the loan/keep your job if you vote). If true we need to do something to root this out and put a stop to it.
