No American should go bankrupt because they got sick. That’s not freedom—that’s failure.
Healthcare Experience &
System Failure
I am a healthcare professional with more than 30 years of experience, most of it spent as a registered nurse delivering care on the front lines, where I learned to put people over paperwork.
Yet too often, our healthcare system does the opposite. I have seen this failure from both sides—as a provider and as a patient. Despite being employed and fully insured, I struggled to access the care I needed, a reality that makes clear that our healthcare system is broken and no longer works for the people it is supposed to serve.
Issues that affect people’s lives—our health, our recovery, and our rights—deserve urgency and compassion, not division.
Politics, Leadership & Call to Action
Healthcare, like COVID-19, our economic recovery, and voting rights, has been poisoned by partisan politics instead of being addressed with urgency and compassion. Americans deserve leaders who treat these issues as responsibilities, not political weapons. We need more Members of Congress—especially more women with real-world experience—who will stop playing politics with people’s lives and get to work delivering practical solutions for the American people.
If the economy is doing well but families are still struggling, then the system isn’t working for working people.
Economy & Jobs
An economy cannot be called successful if working families are falling behind while costs keep rising. If jobs exist but wages don’t keep up with housing, healthcare, and education, then the system is not working for the people who power it every day.
Economic growth should mean opportunity, dignity, and security for workers—not just higher profits for corporations. We need better-paying jobs, fair wages, and policies that reward hard work so families can not only survive, but thrive.
No American should ever have to choose between their health and their financial future. When families are pushed into bankruptcy because of a medical emergency, it is not a sign of freedom or personal responsibility—it is a failure of policy. A strong nation protects its people when they are most vulnerable, and access to affordable, quality healthcare must be a right, not a privilege reserved for those who can afford it. We must lower costs, expand coverage, and put patients—not insurance companies—at the center of our healthcare system.
America must be strong abroad, but smart enough to know that endless wars weaken us at home.
Foreign Policy & National Strength
America must remain strong on the world stage, but true strength comes from wisdom, restraint, and accountability. Endless wars drain our resources, strain military families, and weaken our economy at home without making us safer. Our foreign policy should defend our national interests, support our allies, and prioritize diplomacy whenever possible, while ensuring our service members are only sent into harm’s way when it is absolutely necessary. Being smart abroad allows us to invest more in our people, our infrastructure, and our future here at home.
