Reason for Seeking Public Office:
The majority in the state legislature simply has the wrong priorities. Over the past few years, its main focus has been passing tax giveaways for millionaires and out-of-state corporations. This has hurt small businesses, middle class families and our schools. I am running for the State House because it's time to shift our priorities and focus on creating jobs and making certain that every child has an opportunity for a world-class education that prepares them for the jobs of the future.
