Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I have chosen to step up and run for U. S Congress Ohio District 7 because in 2014,

the current occupant of this office ran unopposed. Since that time, he has continued to

walk in lockstep with the leadership of the Republican Party, to the detriment of the

country.

They have done eveything they can to block any progress. They continue to criticize

but offer no solutions or plans of their own. They continue to take from the middle class

and the poor, while continuing to give larger and larger tax breaks to the ultra rich and

corporations. They continue to try to abridge women's rights, deny climate change,

and attempt to gut environmental protections. These positions cannot go unchallenged

again.
