Chris Jones here. When I ran for Governor of Arkansas in the 2022 election cycle, I knew I’d be taking on one of the biggest names in politics — but I also knew my state and my three daughters deserved a better future than the one ‘the Huckabee Sanders’ of the world were leaving them — so I decided to do something about it.
My friend Annie and I have that and a lot more in common: We are both scientists by training; we both decided to run in 2022 to make a real difference for our respective states; we both took on extreme MAGA opponents; and — we’re both never going back to the sidelines.
Listen, I wasn’t your typical political candidate: I hold five degrees in math, physics, engineering, technology and policy, urban planning AND I’m an ordained minister. Politics was not the career path I trained for.
But when I look at the people in charge of making decisions for our country and my family right now — it’s scary.
We have a presidential nominee who is a convicted felon and thinks climate change is a hoax. We have people in Congress who vote to protect access to weapons of war at the expense of the lives of children. And we have governors (ahem Huckabee Sanders) who leave our transgender youth unprotected.
My kids deserve better. Your kids deserve better. So we have to do better.
