I am very passionate about correctional reform, homelessness and affordable housing, and substance use issues. These issue areas are deeply interconnected and I believe that addressing them requires practical, evidence-based solutions that improve outcomes for individuals and reduce recidivism.
My top priority for the 2027 legislative session will be focusing on the state operating budget because the operating budget determines how we invest taxpayer dollars in essential services such as K-12 education, higher education, public safety, behavioral health, transportation and programs that support working families and seniors.
