URGENT: The Campaign for Hometowns Needs You.We're Missing 1 Thing to Kick MAGA's Best Bootlicker Out of Office.Every time I’m out in the community, I’m reminded why this campaign exists. These conversations in coffee shops, on sidewalks, and in parking lots are not photo ops. They are the work. They are how you build trust, understand what people are dealing with, and earn the right to represent them. Too much of what we see in Washington is performance. Viral posts, culture war stunts, and constant outrage distract from the fact that everyday problems are not getting solved. While politicians chase attention, families are struggling with rising costs, healthcare access is shrinking, veterans are falling through the cracks, and communities are being pitted against one another. How Do We Beat the Circus?One word: TOGETHER. I’m running for Congress to get our families a seat at the table. Are you in? My campaign is built around a simple idea. Hometowns over Headlines. I believe leadership starts by showing up, listening, and doing the unglamorous work of governing. Not yelling. Not posturing. Not turning public service into a spectacle. I’m going to serve our communities, and make sure MAGA bootlickers don’t get in the way. The MAGA circus only works when people feel disconnected and powerless. The way we beat it is not with louder noise. It is with stronger community. Neighbors talking to neighbors, organizing locally, and refusing to let outrage politics define our future. We need You.We are running a fully people powered campaign. No corporate money. No special interests. Just everyday Americans pitching in what they can to help us reach voters, build infrastructure, and keep this effort grounded in reality. If you believe this is what leadership should look like, I hope you will consider donating and becoming part of this campaign. This is not about one viral moment or one election cycle. It is about rebuilding trust and proving that politics can still be about people. That is how we win. Together, right HERE!
