“I intend to be a perennial thorn in the side of oligarch billionaires who think just because they were born on third base with a golden spoon in their mouth, they have the right to dictate when and how the rest of us get to pursue our happiness. I'm all for accruing personal wealth and "winning" capitalism, but as soon as you turn that wealth towards poisoning societies through propaganda mills and media-narratives, you deserve to be taxed to Kingdom Come and back.” (Ballotpedia)
“Authenticity and compassion. Having the cojones to speak the truth even when it might cost you some voters or support, because at the end of the day all you have is your word, which becomes your bond. I KNOW people can trust me, and THEY know they can trust me, because I'm fundamentally not afraid to speak from my heart - in fact, I'm afraid not to. I must always be me.” (Ballotpedia)
“To be a good steward for my constituents. To let them know when the in-house politics of Topeka make it impossible for me to do right by them, by way of poison-pilling, pork-barreling, sneaky riders, gut-and-go tactics, or other forms of unethical bundling of bills into other pieces of legislation. I want my constituents to know when unsavory politicians work against our common good. To be honest, and rational, and decent.” (Ballotpedia)

“I will argue that accusing colleagues of racism, calling one of them a racial slur, lying to this committee and that infamous public display of repeated use of racial slurs and aggression by what should be described as an act of battery against two other elected officials can be collectively classified as not only misconduct, but a pattern of violent rhetoric and behavior,” (Kansas Reflector)
“That's not a word that we use in my culture. That is erroneous.” (Kansas Reflector)
