John,
As I sit here on this quiet Saturday morning, sipping my coffee and watching the sun rise, I can't help but reflect on the journey that has brought me to this moment. It's a journey that has been shaped by a deep sense of duty and a commitment to our nation's founding principles - Freedom, Democracy, Truth & Justice - a commitment that now compels me to run for Congress.
The founding principles of our nation are under attack, and it's crystal clear that we need courageous leaders who are willing to stand up and fight back. I've spent over 30 years of my life serving my country, defending our democracy with every fiber of my being. It's a duty I've always taken seriously, and when duty calls, I serve.
[[link removed]] But now, I feel that my duty extends beyond the battlefield. It extends to the halls of Congress, where I believe I can make a difference for our community and our country as a whole. [[link removed]]
It's a duty born out of a deep love for our nation and a desire to see it thrive in the 21st century and as I gaze out the window, I can't help but think about the issues that matter most to me and, I believe, to you as well:
*
Building
a
21st-century
economy
that
leaves
no
one
behind.
*
Investing
in
our
public
schools
to
prepare
our
children
for
a
rapidly
changing
world.
*
Protecting
and
preserving
our
natural
environment
for
future
generations.
*
Guaranteeing
access
to
quality
healthcare
as
a
fundamental
right.
*
Legalizing
cannabis
and
ending
the
unjust
war
on
drugs.
*
Ending
the
scourge
of
gun
violence
that
plagues
our
communities.
These are not just political talking points; they are the Saturday morning thoughts of someone who cares deeply about our community and the world we leave for our children.
I believe that together, we can address these challenges head-on and bring about positive change. But I can't do it alone.
Campaigns require resources, and I'm asking for your support today. Your contribution, no matter the amount, will make a difference in our efforts to defend our democracy and build a brighter future.
