Fighting for the Future
Candidate positionI’m running to fight for my home. I’m fighting for every underdog who works hard but still can’t get ahead, and for families who can’t afford groceries, child care, health care, or assisted living. I grew up in Minnesota’s Second Congressional District (MN CD2) in my folks’ home in Lakeville, went to high school in Rosemount, and I now live in New Market Township. I understand what people in this area need.

Fighting to Regulate AI and Data Centers
Candidate positionBig Tech is coming to Minnesota, and they want to drain our aquifers, gobble up our farmland, and hand the bill to taxpayers. Most AI corporations are fighting to remain completely unregulated, with no safeguards against the potential existential risks AI poses to our planet, our economy, and our democracy.

Fighting to Get ICE OUT of Minnesota Now
Candidate positionICE agents in Minnesota are trying to scare and provoke us. They’re NOT actually here to investigate fraud, reduce crime, or even deport undocumented immigrants. If that were their real mission, they wouldn’t have sent the largest ICE force in history to a state with one of the lowest populations of undocumented immigrants, and they wouldn’t be roaming our neighborhoods like lawless street gangs. The one thing law enforcement must do is follow the law. Armed forces that don’t follow the law are nothing more than thugs.

The American Dream is for Everyone
Candidate positionOur tax code should promote fairness and opportunity for working people, small businesses, and family farms. That includes things like the permanent expansion of the Child Tax Credit and standing up to reckless tariff policy that hurts Minnesota farmers, construction workers, and tradespeople who make an honest living building houses and products we use every day. It means telling the richest Americans that they don’t get to live by a different set of rules than the rest of us.

Increasing Affordability and Accessibility
Candidate positionIn the State Senate, I led the fight for affordable insulin and improved prescription drug coverage. The federal government has the power to fix this; it provides health services and has massive purchasing power. But big insurance and pharmaceutical companies are standing in the way, protecting their profits. Medicare only began negotiating drug prices in 2025, but the current list of drugs is too limited. We should expand Medicare and Medicaid’s ability to negotiate for lower prices on most prescription medicines. That would not only lower costs for patients, but it would save billions in taxpayer dollars.

Fighting for the Future
Candidate positionSure, I’m in favor of cutting red tape and eliminating wasteful spending, but this administration has made incoherent, overnight cuts to life-saving programs either accidentally or deliberately, and then refused to fix their own mistakes. If you’re going to cut medical treatments and food supplies for kids who need them to live, at least have the guts to look those kids in the eyes. Cruelty isn’t kindness. It isn’t Christian. It isn’t policy. And it sure as hell isn’t American.

Fighting to Regulate AI and Data Centers
Candidate positionMeanwhile, one hyperscale facility could increase Minnesota’s electricity demand by 4% – the equivalent of adding 285,000 homes. Data centers threaten to drive up energy bills for working families and businesses.

Increasing Affordability and Accessibility
Candidate positionMedicare for All: We CAN guarantee affordable healthcare for everyone by simply making Medicare available for all Americans. Beware of people pushing for more incremental patchwork fixes- that has failed for over fifty years. Medicare for All will lower the cost of both Medicare and private insurance by lowering the average age and utilizing a cost-neutral system that already exists. Despite what so many people want you to think, this problem can be solved if we just have the will to fight for affordable health care for everyone.

Fighting for the Future
Candidate positionI’m running for Democracy; standing up for all the rebels, mavericks, and misfits. People who believe that Democracy and the rule of law are what separates America from tin-pot dictatorships, and the worst devils of our natures. Lying to judges, arresting people without due process, and disregarding legitimate court orders are all examples of how democracies die, but now they are happening here, in America.

Fighting to Regulate AI and Data Centers
Candidate positionI’ll ensure that if data centers want to operate in Minnesota, they pay their full costs. No taxpayer dollars should go to the world’s richest corporations. No draining our aquifers. Transparent, public decision-making – not secret NDA deals. And if we’re going to build them, they must be powered by clean energy and meet our environmental standards.

Fighting to Regulate AI and Data Centers
Candidate positionAI technology holds the promise of accelerating many beneficial discoveries in fields as far-ranging as medicine, engineering, and urban planning. But none of that promise can be realized without government safeguards and public input. Many of these mega-corporations possess more money and power than many entire nations. Left on their own, they have proven inconsistent in self-regulation at best, disastrously reckless at worst. A consistent, public-first set of guardrails is a vital prerequisite for making AI safe enough to actually serve the public good rather than only AI’s billionaire (or trillionaire!) shareholders.
