For far too long, rural Virginia has been left out and left behind. That's why I'm running for Senate in District 10!

where i stand
Environment & Sustainability
Healthcare
All Virginians, rural or urban, should be entitled to equitable and efficient healthcare. It's no secret that our current system is broken, and that's why I support Medicare for All. Nobody should have to worry about paying rent or medical bills -- not in the US, and not in VA. I also support the expansion of Medicare and Medicaid, which VA Dems did sauccessfully under Gov. Northam. We MUST ensure that rural communities have access to care, too.
Standing up for Rural Virginia
Education
Recently, we've seen the integrity and dignity of our incredibly underfunded public school systems degrade at the hands of lawmakers that would rather focus on culture wars instead of fighting for our kids and our teachers. As SD-10's next Senator, I will fight to raise teacher pay to at least the national average and fully fund our schools, and ensure rural VA has both the funding and the mental health care that they deserve in school. That alone will help reduce teacher shortages.
Reproductive Care & Human Rights
I believe with all my heart that the decision to have an abortion should be made soley between a woman, her doctor, and/or any other advice or counsel they may choose. I understand that women in rural communities like mine -- especially women of color -- face a healthcare equity crisis. I will always fight for a fair and inclusive Virginia for EVERYONE -- and I will never give up on fighting for bodily autonomy and racial, environmental, and social justice -- including protecting LGBTQ+ individuals from discrimination.
We also must do everything in our power to stop the militarization of the police and the killings of unarmed black men and women, and erase fabrics of our history that still haunt us, like the implications of redlining. As a Senator, I will fight every single day to ensure that all communities feel safe. Thus, I urge Congress to pass the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, and I support efforts to do the same at the state level.
