Finally pass a bipartisan farm bill and fund rural healthcare.
I’m running for Congress to bring down costs, take on corruption, and invest in our small towns.
Candidate positionTaking on corruption: As a math teacher, I believe parties have been reckless with the budget and our tax dollars. I’ll support a balanced budget amendment and I’ll vote against raising the debt ceiling until the budget is balanced, so that we finally take the $40+ trillion national debt seriously. We need real accountability and reform for the massive fraud we’ve seen right here in Minnesota, and I released a plan to get our money back and to send every public official who broke the law to prison. Unlike my opponent, I support term limits and a ban on pardons for family and donors, and I will vote to ban members of Congress from selling stocks and from becoming lobbyists. Perhaps most importantly, I will always stand up to corruption in government no matter which party or politician is responsible for it. Read my full Taxpayer Protection Pledge here.

Candidate positionInvesting in our small towns: Our small towns need actual investments, not excessive regulations or outside exploitation. That means finally passing a bipartisan farm bill, ensuring farmers have the right to repair their own equipment, and extending tax credits for health insurance. It also means protecting Social Security, Medicare, and Veterans benefits, and undoing the recent cuts to Medicaid (Medical Assistance) and SNAP. It includes investing in clean water, special education, and medical research and ag innovation that creates new jobs here in Minnesota, not in China. And unlike our current congressman who has supported data centers in southern Minnesota, I support a moratorium on data centers until key protections are guaranteed. You can read my full plan on data centers here.

Candidate positionAnd regardless of whether you vote for me or not, I believe we all deserve a representative who actually shows up. That’s why I held 21 in-person town hall meetings (one in each of our congressional district’s 21 counties) before the election. And if I’m elected, I’ll hold another 21 town hall meetings (one in every county) during my term in Congress. I’ll also make constituent services a top priority. You’ll never have to play hide and seek to find me.
