He is married to the love of his life, Amy Sennett, who he met on the first day of graduate school, where they were in the same class.

Across the Sixth District, the immigrant families that are a vital part of our economy, schools, and communities are under attack. Donald Trump is terrorizing families, ignoring due process, and promoting cruel policies that pit neighbors against one another.

It is difficult to break through in today’s media environment with the constant stream of disinformation coming from the White House. I built my online platform, The People’s Cabinet, to bring fact-based arguments to counter the blatant lies that come from the Trump administration and present a bold democratic vision for the future. When we bring audiences facts about how Trump is responsible for raising costs and propose concrete, alternative policy options from Democrats, we will win voters back.

I’m in favor of common sense reforms that lower the cost of prescription drugs and bring down costs for Americans, as we did in the Biden administration by allowing Medicare to negotiate prescription drug prices and capping insulin costs for seniors at $35.
