  • Trump says prices are coming down. But on doosteps across our district, I’m hearing the truth: housing, healthcare, gas, and groceries are too expensive. I’m running for State Senate to lower costs, build more homes, create good jobs, and fight for universal healthcare and preschool. Vote by June 2.
