Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I am running because I believe that in the United States in 2016, people should not be bankrupt or dying because they can't afford healthcare. They should not be locked out of college. They should not be denied the right to a dignified retirement. I am running so we can reclaim our democracy and take back our government. As a teacher, I see the promise of America's future every day. I am running so we can realize that promise.
