In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“We have five months to grow a coalition that crosses beyond party lines and political division. We have five months to prove that integrity still matters and to show our country what leadership grounded in service really looks like.”
“The average first-time homebuyer right now is 41. 41. As a parent, I think that's just sad, you know, because your children should have more opportunity than you had at their age.”
“So, I thought I was going to be serving in uniform for three more years, and I just really felt like I wasn't done serving and decided I could continue serving in this way, and that's why I'm running for Congress.”
“For the military, this is about competitive pay, adequate housing, affordable childcare, and making sure that no one who serves our country in uniform should be relying on SNAP benefits or on-base food pantries. And then for those who serve our communities, and these are the folks doing jobs that we need them to do, you know, whether it's first responders or teachers, they need that same freedom to live with dignity.”
“I'm going to bring all my top issues back to what I've done for 35 years, which is defend the Constitution and the freedom that it guarantees. So I like to frame all of these as freedoms. Financial freedom for Americans. Hard work should equate to actually getting ahead and maybe accumulating some wealth. That's something that we don't see right now.”
