“Accountability & People-Powered Representation I’m running a 100% people-powered campaign because Sumner County deserves a representative who answers to the people, not corporate donors or the highest bidder. For too long, the legislature has had the tools to help working families and has chosen not to use them.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “The minimum wage hasn't moved since 2009 while the cost of everything else has. I will fight to eliminate the grocery tax, expand childcare subsidies, increase eligibility for Tennessee's Child Care Certificate Program, and force a recorded vote on raising the minimum wage, because the economy isn't working for Sumner County families and I'll say so.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “These are not separate problems, they are a connected failure of state policy that has made Tennessee one of the most dangerous places in the country to be pregnant. I will introduce legislation to strengthen medical emergency exceptions in the abortion ban, fight every budget cycle for rural maternal healthcare funding, and push for expanded TennCare coverage for women of reproductive age.”
