3 things I will do if I win:

1. If re-elected, I will keep working to help Springfield’s families by supporting policies that make childcare and early education more affordable and easier to get, more affordable housing options, and further work to address cost drivers in healthcare.

2. If I’m re-elected, I will keep fighting for people in Oregon to be able to make their own choices about their bodies. I believe that trying to take away the right to choose is an attack on women’s rights and a setback for all Oregonians.

3. Being married to a Springfield teacher has shown me how important it is to provide adequate funding to support schools. If re-elected, I’ll help support additional efforts for schools to hire great teachers, offer free meals, and ensure Springfield’s graduates can afford college and succeed.
