Top Issues

Education The world's greatest democracy depends on informed citizens. The internet's promise was knowledge and connection — now it's the most powerful tool for mass manipulation in history. Civic education and media literacy are vital defenses against misinformation, giving citizens the tools to think critically and protect democracy. Government Reform For too long politicians, corporations, and the wealthy operate above the law. They buy “justice” – a slap on the wrist for crimes that would put the rest of us behind bars. If the absurd lie “corporations are people” were true, prisons would be full of them. This only ends when these "elites" face real consequences for betraying the public trust — when they fear the people. Housing I focus on real-world solutions to the housing crisis, stronger civic education, and protecting constitutional freedoms. My approach is simple: find the problem, organize people around it, and deliver results that improve everyday life.
