In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I am so ready for this campaign. I am so ready for this general election in November because I've pretty much been preparing for this all my life and this is a lifelong dream to do that and serve my community as an elected official and so I need y'all to come out again in the polls”
“Now, I know the great scientists and the researchers put in a lot of work to create medicines that keep people alive. But at what point will we have to stop this because it's getting out of control that people can't even afford just regular basic generic medicines.”
“I like to understand how you got to this decision. Now, I know things are expensive and I can attest and understand inflation. But you have to think about the common man. Not everybody in America is a billionaire, and they probably don't want to even pay that much for medicine and tackling that and talking to them.”
“Billionaires are coming in and sending this water out and making money and profits off of the water, it makes no sense. It's not helping. It's not helping home. I've always been taught that you got to take care of home first.”
“We need to vote to keep our water here, first of all. That's our water. And by funneling it to other states, it's going to leave a lot of areas depleted.”
