I was born in Oregon and spent my childhood summers on a family ranch in Christmas Valley — high desert country east of the Cascades, land poor and work rich. No running water in the summer trailers. A landscape that teaches you, early and without sentiment, that the earth requires tending and will not be fooled.

I grew up in a household steeped in scripture and world religions — a home where faith was something studied, lived, and taken seriously, extended generously to traditions beyond our own. Not debated like an academic seminar — formed, the way faith is supposed to work. I am LDS, and I was raised to understand that every person is a child of God, full stop. Not every person of one faith, not every person of one background — every person. That includes the stranger at the border. The Bible is not ambiguous about this. Leviticus, Matthew, Ruth — the text is consistent and it is not subtle. I have been making that argument my whole life and I am prepared to keep making it in Washington.

Moscow is also where I became aware, years later, that a pastor from my high school town had traveled to the Pentagon to tell the Secretary of Defense that women should not vote — that women are, in his words, the kind of people that other people come out of, and should be governed accordingly. I graduated from Moscow High School. I have something to say about that. I am saying it by running.

I am a woman of faith — LDS, raised in a household where the scriptures of many traditions were taken seriously and debated at the dinner table. I do not wear my faith as a political credential or a campaign prop. I wear it the way my tradition teaches: in how I treat people, in how I think about stewardship of the earth God gave us, in my conviction that when the land is well cared for, there is enough for all of us to prosper.

When my youngest graduated, I enrolled at Boise State University. I lived on campus — alongside my daughter, in the same university community — and earned two degrees and a minor: Information Technology Management, Supply Chain Management, and a minor in Cybersecurity.

GSE Financing for Resident Buyouts: Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac financing is redirected exclusively to resident cooperatives, ROC organizations, nonprofits, and local governments seeking to acquire MHCs from institutional owners. Where an institutional owner refuses to sell at community-anchored fair market value, eminent domain and GSE-backed community financing operate in tandem: the government acquires the land at a valuation capped so that resulting lot rents do not exceed 25% of local area median monthly income — not what institutional capital can bid — and residents take ownership through a cooperative or ROC structure with GSE loan support. The taxpayer’s capital built this problem. The taxpayer’s capital ends it

I fight for the right of every family to own their land, their home, and their peace of mind.

I refuse to accept a system that traps Americans in lifetime servitude to interest and perpetual rents.

A garden for every school. I believe in schools that teach students to do, not just memorize. Bring back trades, arts, civics, financial literacy, media literacy, and real life skills that prepare students to thrive in the real world. If you want to know what we should be teaching our children, imagine some strange event that removed everyone over 25, what would our children need to know to have the best future?

No entity that qualifies as an institutional investor under this Act may own any manufactured housing community. The standard is not a cap — it is a prohibition. Institutional-scale ownership of MHCs is incompatible with the housing security of working Americans and must be unwound entirely.

Eminent Domain Authority: Where institutional owners refuse to sell, federal and state governments are expressly authorized to exercise eminent domain to acquire MHC land and transfer it — with all existing infrastructure — to resident ownership. Compensation is calculated at community-anchored fair market value: the maximum valuation at which a resident cooperative can service the acquisition debt at a monthly lot rent not exceeding 25% of local area median monthly income. Pre-acquisition income streams establish the floor. What local families can actually afford establishes the ceiling. Not the inflated price institutional capital paid using government-backed leverage. Not rents the acquiring entity itself extracted. The price a private equity firm paid does not define the price residents must pay to reclaim their own community
