• Does Stand for Children really stand for children? Since 2020, Stand for Children and RISE Indy have put more than $685,000 into IPS school board races. 99% of Stand's PAC money came from one billionaire: Michael Bloomberg. In 2024, District 2 voters said no to my opponent. When Gayle Cosby stepped down, she nominated me for her seat. The four commissioners who appointed Hasaan Rashid instead were all elected with Stand or RISE money. Count Rashid too, and it's more than $366,000. Then look a

Every dollar came from two PACs, Stand for Children and RISE Indy. And Stand's own report shows $2,608 more to his campaign than he reported. My campaign is different. 63% of our money comes from individual people: neighbors, friends and IPS families. I take no money from Stand for Children, RISE Indy or The Mind Trust. I answ

• I'm proud to have the endorsement of Dr. Gayle Cosby. Gayle served District 2 on the IPS Board with courage and independence. She asked hard questions, she never stopped putting students first, and she was a critical voice when the board needed one. That's the kind of commissioner I'll be. In March 2026, Gayle nominated me to fill her vacancy. Despite being defeated in the 2024 election, four board members chose Rashid to fill the seat. The voters already made their choice once. Gayle made h
