John, “The Founding Fathers were farmers,” someone once told me. But they weren’t farmers like me. I pay the people who work my land for their labor. My great-grandparents didn’t own plantations; they survived them. I’m the grandson of sharecroppers, and I’ve carried on their legacy of building a life from the land. I took a 300-acre family farm and grew it into a 3,300-acre family business. My son and I on the farm in 2021. I’m running because Washington needs a farmer, like me, because not all people see themselves in the stories of the founding farmers. And when I win, I will become the first Black person elected statewide in Louisiana. Congress has plenty of lawyers, millionaires, and businessmen, but almost no farmers. If we want a truly representative democracy, everyday working people need a voice at the table. These times are not as unprecedented as people say. We have lived through voter suppression and the disenfranchisement of people of color before, and we overcame it. Now MAGA is fueling prejudice and resentment, encouraging people to blame their neighbors instead of the billionaire class. We’ve been in this fight before, but meeting this moment will take bold leadership. We don’t need more polished politicians. We need everyday people who understand what it means to struggle and who will fight for liberty and dignity for all. If you want to send a farmer to the Senate, rush a donation to our Louisiana race. MAGA is treating Louisiana like a petri dish for oppressive policies, and people are fed up. We need your support to fight back.
