Healthcare We have been abandoned by healthcare corporations. We deserve a hospital here, I will seek out or set up the necessary meetings to accomplish this. I am not a "wait around for something to happen" person. As a health insurance broker I have first hand experience on the level of neglect that is happening to us. We will be poisoned again here unless WE fix this and bring in more healthcare facilities. We deserve this! Environment / Energy Clean and safe drinking water in our area – one of my key issues – is connected to the health care costs, economy, mental health and the environment. Education We must pay teachers a professional wage. We cannot require bachelor’s and master’s degrees and then pay them wages that do not allow them to buy a home in our district. Teacher pay must be competitive so as to attract quality educators. Education Living in a district with so many working families, we must provide additional funding for students who prefer vocational training in order to pursue a career as a tradesperson. I believe we should increase funding to expand vocational training at our local schools. These can lead to paid Union Apprenticeships, which can lead to a lucrative career, without the need for a four-year university degree.* Abortion / Contraception Reproductive Rights are Human Rights
