TOGETHER
We Can Build An America That Works For All Of Us

Our ideals of freedom and justice are crumbling under the weight of powerful interests with their own self-serving objectives and a “you’re on your own” mentality for the rest of us. These interests threaten our families, our communities and our values.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

We can work together in the 26th Legislative District to:

BUILD a strong economy from the middle class out (not “trickle-down”), where middle class families with money in their pockets create a stronger America.

STAND UP for strong communities. Every family has a right to clean air and drinking water, good food, health, and a safe place to call home.

RESPECT the inherent dignity and equality of every human being regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, religion, income, or sexual orientation.

INVEST in strong public schools to open the doors to decent jobs, a secure retirement, and ladders of opportunity for all our children to succeed.

PROTECT our children, seniors, and veterans. Make sure they are defended and supported, not left to fend for themselves.
