As a mom, professional, and community volunteer, I learned the tremendous value of caring for each other, finding stability, and accessing opportunity.
I believe in excellent, not just good schools; access to healthcare services; stewarding our lands and keeping our homes safe from wildfires.
In Salem, I'll fight for:
A Thriving Central Oregon Economy:
- Support economic solutions that create clean energy jobs.
- Strengthen our local economy and grow our workforce.
Wildfire Preparation + Recovery:
- Advocate for policies that reduce hazards that fuel fires and destroy homes.
- Create incentives to make our homes and lands resilient.
Healthcare:
- Expand mental health services, including telehealth.
- Protect women's access to health and reproductive care.
Housing + Infrastructure:
- Support housing options and private/public partnerships to increase housing supply.
- Advocate for housing solutions without creating unnecessary sprawl.
- Champion safe streets and access to transportation options.
Education:
- Elevate apprenticeship programs and creative pathways for our students to succeed in the workplace.
- Honor that public schools are a hub of our community and rekindle that sense of shared purpose after a challenging two years.
Childcare:
- Address the childcare shortage, as two out of three kids under five have no childcare spot.
- Support partnerships to create more spots through the micro-center childcare model.
