Why are you running?

I think this election comes down to the fundamental role that government should play in our society. We are at a pivotal moment in our history as we determine the direction of our country.


I am running because I think a balance must be struck between reducing federal spending and protecting important initiatives.

We must focus on job creation, making higher education more affordable, and protecting Social Security and Medicare so that they are there for future generations.
