Issues

World-Class 
Schools

Our schools are the pride of our community, and every child deserves the opportunity to pursue the best education possible. I will advocate for better access to mental health resources, smaller class sizes, and will always ensure our schools have the resources they need to be successful. I am also committed to promoting technical programs into our high schools so every student has a shot at high wages and good jobs.

 

In St. Paul I will be a tireless advocate for our public schools, our students and our teachers.

Lower
Costs

In St. Paul I won't stop fighting to lower the costs of being a homeowner, the cost of prescription drugs like insulin, or the costs of running a family farm or small business. One of my top priorities as your state senator will be to eliminate the state tax on Social Security income.

​

Times are tough right now, and I am running so we can all have more breathing room in our budgets.

A Strong Economy

I will always be a strong supporter of responsible tax relief that will put more money in your pockets, and as long as I am in St. Paul, I will work to create job retention and training programs and promote policies that advance affordable childcare. As your state senator I will hold wealthy corporations to account and and ban them from inflating prices of the essentials we need. 

​

It's time that we have an economy that works for all of us, and not just for the wealthy few.

Safe Communities

I support responsibly investing in public safety programs that keep our communities safe and allow our neighborhoods to thrive. I will fight to ensure that law enforcement gets the resources they need to do their jobs, including further funding to recruit and train more officers at the local level. I am also a proponent of proven violence prevention strategies that can be implemented alongside these critical investments. 

​

As your next state senator, our police officers and first responders will always have an advocate in St. Paul.

Protect Reproductive Freedom

The decision of when to start a family should be left up to mothers and their doctors. I strongly support a person's right to make decisions about their own bodies and in St. Paul I will work to protect access to reproductive healthcare. With the fall of Roe v. Wade, state legislatures have become the last line of defense for abortion access, and I will always stand up to extremists who want to take that right away from Minnesota women. 

A Sustainable Future

In St. Paul I will work to make Minnesota a more sustainable place to live, work, and raise a family. Supporting efforts that combat climate change will make our communities better, our farmers safer and our children able to grow up in a world where they can thrive.
