Welcome. After many months of meeting with and listening to constituents here in the 7th District, I’ve refined my stances on the issues. We’ve also added an ideas feature where everyone can submit ideas, and vote up ones you like, to make this campaign as inclusive as possible – just like our government should be.

I’m not a professional politician. Both during the campaign and after entering Congress, my statements and actions will continue to be guided by the principle of justice and not privilege. I don’t know how to be any other way.

As Theodore Roosevelt said almost 100 years ago:

“The sons of all of us will pay in the future if we of the present do not do justice in the present.” (expand full quote) Louisville, Kentucky, April 3, 1912. 

I hope that whether you have a party affiliation or not, you will join me in the effort to find justice for all those who believe in America as I do.

When I protest against the unfair profits of unscrupulous and conscienceless men, or against the greedy exploitation of the helpless by the beneficiaries of privilege—in all these case I am not only fighting for the weak, I am also fighting for the strong. The sons of all of us will pay in the future if we of the present do not do justice in the present. If the fathers amuse others to eat bitter bread, the teeth of their own sons shall be set on edge. Our cause is the cause of justice for all, in the interest of all. Surely there was never a more noble cause; surely there was never a cause in which it was better worth while to spend and be spent. .HSN 1
