I was removed from my position by Pete Hegseth

Hi all,

After serving our country for 35 years in the Navy, I was removed from my position by Pete Hegseth without reason.

I spent my entire life in service to this country, always putting the mission and the people above myself. But when I was forced out, I had a choice: go out quietly, or find a way to keep serving.

Herbert, I’ve always lived by three simple ideals: honor, integrity, and respect. That’s why I’m running for Congress in South Carolina’s first district. If you believe that’s what we need in Washington right now, please consider splitting $25 between my campaign and Elect Southern Democrats >>

The day I was removed from my position, I was forced to leave behind my life’s work. I never went back to the Pentagon or wore the uniform again.

But this story isn’t just about me. Throughout the first year of Donald Trump’s second term, every woman serving as a three or four-star admiral in the Navy has been fired, forced out, or reassigned. This wasn’t an isolated incident, Herbert. It’s a pattern.

When leadership decisions are driven by politics instead of integrity, our families, communities, and nation pay the price.

That’s why I’m running for Congress: to keep serving, to stand up when it’s hardest, and to fight for leadership that puts country over politics every time.

Early support in races like this matters most. We have a long road ahead of us if we’re going to fill this open seat and make the government work for the people again. If you can, please split $25 between my campaign and Elect Southern Democrats to help me hit the ground running and prove that service to our country shouldn’t end just because someone in power says it should.

Herbert, thank you for supporting our mission here at Elect Southern Democrats! With your help, we were able to turn out tens of thousands of Democrats in the 2024 election, helping flip Southern seats from red to blue.

Now, we’re mobilizing to boost more Democrats across the South to victory – who will advance inclusive policies that address racial justice, social equity, and economic opportunity, and help take back our majorities.

We believe in a simple principle: When Democrats vote, Democrats win. That’s why we’re fighting back against Trump’s MAGA extremists by turning out tens of thousands of Democrats across the South in states like Florida, Georgia, and Texas.
