I have represented the Windsor-1 district at the Vermont House of Representatives for the last six years— and now I am  running for the Vermont Senate.

If you’re like me, you are frustrated by political machines: they make decisions on your behalf without fully understanding the effects on working class people. They create bandaid changes that don’t dig down and address root causes. This is what called me to public service.

Vermont is at several crossroads—education, healthcare, housing, jobs, and economic stability all hang in the balance. We can stand up for working families and actually address these problems. We can secure primary care for every Vermonter and stand up to private insurance companies. We can make housing easier for Vermonters to find and not wealthy out-of-state developers. We can fund education in a smarter way without overwhelming Vermonters with high property taxes. We can create an economy where our children see a life for themselves at home in Vermont.   

This campaign is about truth, inclusion, creating together and realizing where our potential could take us, and working to empower Vermont’s people and communities who get left out or just plain sidelined. Every one of us has the right to live a decent life and have their needs met. I’m here to help us get that.

This campaign will be focused on building community and bringing neighbors together. We are fueled by supporters all over this county and donations of all types. 

If you are ready for a stronger Windsor County, sign up to volunteer and donate. Everyone has a role and home in this campaign.
