Why I'm running - Campaign Mission Statement

These are tough times for most Americans. Income inequality in the United States is at an all-time high with a shrinking middle class.

I have lived and worked in the Antelope and Santa Clarita Valleys for over 15 years. I am running for California’s 25th Congressional District to be a voice for working people, students, veterans, the elderly and everyone else who feels voiceless and powerless under the current corporate-dominated government.

My priority is to protect Social Security and Medicare from legislation that aims to eliminate these services for the most vulnerable Americans. If you contributed to these insurance programs, then you earned the right to guaranteed benefits. Social Security and Medicare are commitments made to all Americans and should not be cut, privatized or eliminated to reduce the federal deficit.

Deregulation and privatization of government services have ruined our economy and corrupted our democracy. The Bill of Rights secures our civil liberties but injustice grows because we are being deprived of our economic rights. Instead of citizens, we are nothing but consumers of healthcare, education, energy and public utilities, or clients for an ever-expanding private prison industry. Worker and consumer rights taken for granted in the past are swept away with waivers and binding arbitration agreements because you cannot obtain credit, employment, or receive medical treatment in this country without signing away your right to sue corporations who swindle you, injure you, or cause a death with their negligence. I want to represent you in Congress and enact legislation that counters these inequities and ends corporate personhood.

I want to work towards a government that works for all of us instead of corporations who can pay for lobbyists to enact legislation that benefits them at the expense the 99%.
