Health
I believe national security begins at home with the economic security, health security, education security, and environment/energy security of our citizens; these four security pillars, along with defense security, provide for our country’s overall national security.

Transportation
I believe that it is essential for public transportation to be reliable and affordable for all Americans. Many seniors in my district rely on public transportation solely, and it is important that it remain accessible to them. In addition, development must occur in an intelligent way, with consideration as to ways in which it will affect a given area, as well as how it will impact traffic and other areas. Read more.
