My Top 3 Priorities
Creating Good Paying Jobs: Incomes aren't growing fast enough to keep up with growing housing prices. Funding job training programs in high tech manufacturing to help displaced workers recover from the recession.
Transportation and Infrastructure: Simply put: we are wasting too much time and money sitting in traffic, in congress I will continue to make funding of local public transportation projects a top priority.
Affordable Healthcare: I believe that access to affordable healthcare is a right, not a privilege. I will continue to oppose efforts to repeal the ACA and efforts to privatize Medicare and social security.
