Statement: Many elected officials focus on their parties, their careers,
and their big donors. I have none of the above. I want to focus on you, the
voter, and, more specifically, on the voter who has bigger problems than I do.
Healthy, educated, prosperous voters make good decisions, and that's what the
state, and the country, need more than anything.
I'm for jobs that will support a family. Affordable healthcare. Education that
truly prepares the next generations. Meaningful responses to natural
catastrophes. No one can fix everything, but we can give it a our best shot.
Let me try.
