When I look to the future, I marvel at what I see.
A country — proud of its principles and its place in the world.
A free people — at peace with each other and protecting our values.
A culture — the greatest the world has ever known, yet always growing greater still.
There are those who see America’s glory days as behind us, but I don’t believe it.
How could I, after the life I’ve lived?
I’m the proud daughter of Indian immigrants.
We were the only ones in our small, rural town of Bamberg, population 2,500. My dad wore a turban. He still does to this day. My mom wore a sari. Nobody knew who we were, what we were, or why we were there. I was a brown girl in a black-and-white world.
And yet, as a child, I saw the promise of America unfold before me.
As governor, I saw our state move beyond hate and violence, and show our nation a better way.
And as Ambassador, I saw that America is still the standard.
Where we lead, the world follows. When we speak, the world listens. What we are, the world wants.
My friends, America is worth fighting for. America is worth living for.
We are being called to prove ourselves worthy of the gift we’ve been given — the gift of being citizens of these United States.
I have answered that call. And I always will.
Because as my parents always reminded me, my brothers, and my sister… even on our worst day, we are blessed to live in America.
I launched Stand For America PAC two years ago to continue my mission to stand for America and support bold conservative candidates across the country. I’ve been working nonstop to champion conservative values, rally alongside freedom-loving conservatives, and stand for America.
If you want to join me in the fight, please consider chipping in a donation to Stand For America PAC today.
My very best,
