In their own words

Affordability and schools: "Affordability has been kind of the question that I've gotten a lot. Making sure that we're taking care of people, making sure that people have adequate healthcare. I've heard a lot about the school system but how we need to make sure that we have public school funding, especially for teachers, and make sure that we're paying them adequately, so that's something that's very important." (Gulf Coast Media, Sep 30, 2026 (League of Women Voters forum))
