As of Dec. 2023 our congress had a 15% national approval rating from the citizens it purports to represent. Let that sink in. Americans of both political parties agree, congress is failing at its primary mission – to represent its constituents. Electing people who look and talk like the candidates you voted for in the last election will not change the inability of congress to get things done.

 I’m not a career politician pretending to be one of you. I’m a middle-class, working American who wants a better life for his children, and his neighbors. I share your economic struggles. I share your need for an America ruled by fair and just laws. I share your desires for an America where responsibility and accountability apply to all – regardless of wealth or office. I share your compassion to give Americans a leg up when they need help. We hope for the same things. Changing Congress is the only way our hopes can be realized. And Congress can only be changed from within. Let’s do this together.
