And it’s not just in education; it’s in almost all walks of life. Sit down, keep quiet, and do what the "experts" say. Well, I don’t agree, and I won't stand for it.
This campaign won't be about me or about the special interest groups that run Capitol Hill. It's going to be about you, our friends and neighbors, and a movement that will show Washington that we are going to shake things up and defy the status quo.
From record inflation, budget-busting gas prices, and an exploding mental health crisis to a world in which borders are not respected, the problems we face are serious and complex. Two weeks to flatten the curve turned into two years that flattened the middle class. We’ve gone from energy independence to importing oil from those who hate us. Enough is enough.
I will fight alongside you as we work to recreate and protect the promise of equal opportunity. I’m blessed to have been born in the United States. As the son of two working-class immigrants who came in search of a better life, I have lived the American Dream. Yet this land of opportunity from which I benefitted is at risk of disappearing. I want to make sure it doesn’t for our kids and our grandkids.
