Statement from the candidate:
I am running to provide the voters in 9A a real choice. There are many issues facing the state today. The major ones are 1)health care, 2) education (k-12 and higher ed.), 3) human rights, and, 4) increasing taxes on the rich and corporations to make them pay their fair share. Working people need a voice in the state house and I will provide that for them when I am elected.
