People, policy, politics, progress, prosperity - pragmatic with passion and purpose!
Former elected State Representative, former elected School Board, former Governor’s Senior Policy Advisor, small business owner.
It’s Small Business Saturday - a tradition that gets people out to support local businesses! Local retail shops, restauranteurs, and service providers are local residents who invest in and support our own communities in many ways. #ShopSmall

My old signs now garage art at home. Proud of 5 elections I won & public service.

My passion is guiding & supporting candidates w/ #PlayToWin commitment & strategy.
I can’t support candidates:
-not realistic about work to win & serve
-not trustworthy
-w/special interest factions & narrow agendas

People covered by Medicaid are family and friends to Democrats, Republicans, and Independents - in every community and every state.
They are families, workers, children, veterans, disabled persons, nursing home residents, etc. They are not waste, fraud, and abuse! #NoCutsToMedicaid #CareNotGreed

While a few Dem state legislators I’ve known bought into DFER - not me, not then, not ever!
My strong commitment continues for public schools and public school districts open to all children and all communities. I hope that is you too!
