In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I am running because Washington needs more people who understand what happens at the kitchen table, in our classrooms, in our neighborhoods and inside our small businesses.”
“I am not entering this race because I believe Washington needs another politician.”
“Whether a young person chooses college, a trade, an apprenticeship, entrepreneurship or another career pathway, we have a responsibility to make sure they are prepared to earn a living and build a future right here in Louisiana.”
“We must connect education to opportunity.”
“Louisiana families should not have to work harder every year just to fall further behind.”
“If you work every day, you should be able to afford to live, raise your family, own a home and eventually retire with dignity.”
