Affordable, Quality Healthcare for All

I will prioritize expanding access to affordable, high quality health care in Tennessee by advocating for Medicaid expansion, increasing the number of providers, and holding insurance companies accountable through greater transparency in how they set premiums.

Strong Public Schools

Supporting our schools means investing in the people and resources that make learning possible. I am committed to strengthening public education by investing in our teachers and ensuring they are valued and supported. I will work to ensure every student and teacher has the tools and opportunities they need to succeed so all classrooms can thrive.

Safe and Strong Communities

I will work to support our first responders by advocating for strong public safety laws and investing in programs that strengthen our communities. This includes funding resources for emergency services, expanding mental health and prevention programs, and ensuring families across District 78 feel safe, supported, and secure.

Support for Working Families

I will fight for policies that lower costs and expand opportunity for working families. This includes supporting tax relief, investing in affordable childcare, strengthening workforce development programs, and ensuring families have access to good paying jobs. My focus is on creating stability and making sure families have the resources they need to succeed every day.

Responsible Budgeting

I will work to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely by supporting balanced budgets, increasing transparency, and holding agencies accountable. Tennessee has provided significant corporate tax incentives while many families continue to feel rising costs at the grocery store and the gas pump. I believe we must better balance our priorities by investing in education, healthcare, and everyday affordability while cutting waste and ensuring long term financial stability.
