In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“I am running for Congress because I believe government should work for the people it serves. Too often, it feels like Washington is focused on politics instead of results. That must change.”
“We need to start taking politics out of the schools now.”
“I'm going to work hard to look at the national defense industries, such as medical supplies, chips, and make sure that comes over here. We start working to help out the federal workers that were laid off. Now find real, true jobs that strengthen national defense.”
“I also want to have builders come in and build more affordable housing. But we got to do it smart. First, we got to create jobs. Once we create the jobs, then we need to go ahead and start rebuilding those communities.”
“There's a lot of people out there asking for true leadership to emerge. I want to put people before politics.”
“I'm running for Congress because it's time to restore common sense, courage, and accountability to Washington. The people of Northern Virginia are tired of partisan soundbites and political games. They deserve a representative who listens, leads with integrity, and delivers real results - not more division and broken promises.”
