Candidate for
United States Representative; District 2; Democratic Party

I have worked with children, their teachers and their parents in every state in the union. I have seen first hand the struggles of families trying to make ends meet, of cash strapped schools having to increase class sizes and eliminate vital arts programs, of teachers forced to focus on tests rather than kids. The needs of children and their families will be foremost in every vote I make. The concerns of farmers, businessmen, health professionals, environmentalists, forest workers, and every other interest group will be addressed more effectively if the focus is on solutions with the long term benefits needed to make life better for our next generation, our children.
