“I am passionate about making the cost of living affordable for all Kansans. I have seen the impact that taxes and housing costs have had on everyday Kansans, including myself, and it's time to do something about it!” (Ballotpedia)
“Too early in my campaign. I expect to receive several endorsements.” (Ballotpedia)
“No to Data Centers that use our resources and make us pay for it. The future is being built on AI. But at what cost? The energy and water they require create a serious challenge to our future. How do we protect clean water for Kansans? How will big tech guarantee affordable energy for every Kansan into the future? We need to stop and create sustainability regulations before one more data center is built in Kansas.” (Campaign website)
