ISSUES
AFFORDABILITY
Regular folks in our community are being left behind. We’re paying rising costs and rising taxes, while large corporations see record breaking profits.
Healthcare
I fully support universal healthcare for all. No family should lose healthcare because of where they work or how much they make.
Community Safety
Our communities have suffered from the inadequate resourcing of mental health and addiction treatment services. It is the duty of the state legislature to take bold steps in addressing this issue.
