“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.”
— Ambrose Redmoon

Small talk. Door to door greetings. Long days at work and meetings in the evenings. Imposter syndrome. Not my favorite things. But I am running anyway because our children and communities matter more.

How many of you are struggling with:
Increase in daily expenses? Property taxes?
Have a child who receives special education services?
Struggle with mental health? Substance use? Access?

If so, you aren’t alone. My goal is to be the loud voice pushing these issues to the forefront, with practical and realistic solutions.

A Letter to the Editor by Dick Seaton, Board Member of Kansas Appleseed, featured in the Manhattan Mercury on Saturday: "At the August 4 primary election, we will vote on a proposed constitutional amendment to change the way we select our Supreme Court justices. The amendment would abolish the merit system we have had since 1958, widely admired across the country, and replace it with elections for all new justice positions... This attempt to politicize our court deserves to be defeated. As the old saying goes, 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'."
