Collapse all
|I want to represent Maryland's 6th District because I understand that main street and small businesses need leaders to actually listen. Not government leaders who tell communities what they want instead of asking them what they need, while using people as political talking points during elections. Below are a set of ideas taken from my meetings and conversations with you. I believe in free and creative markets, rugged but collaborative individualism, smart government, freedom and equality for all, and a strong defense. The issues we face are rural, urban, and exist in Garrett, Allegany, Washington, Frederick, Montgomery County, Maryland, and all over the United States.
Together, we can create an MD6 that works for all, not just the well-connected or wealthy! If elected you can count on me to walk and chew gum and work to deliver for you.- Work to balance the budget; Increase funding for L.E.O. Crisis Intervention Units; and protect a womens reproductive rights.
- Provide more efficient mental health services and investment; Won't allow recriminatory policy - especially from our gay and lesbian community.
- Provide affordable housing; Open up the primary or over 800K Independent voters in Maryland and build a new agricultural hub and affordable housing.
Grand Expectations
Senator John F. Kennedy - Democrat
