I know our country faces many challenges, but I remain hopeful because I’ve seen the strength and resilience of people who care deeply about one another and about our shared future. That’s what being a Democrat means to me — believing that change is possible when we stand united for what’s right.

I take pride in being part of a movement that values compassion, justice, and progress. I believe that when we work together, we can build a future where everyone thrives, not just the privileged few.

For me, being a Democrat is about believing in fairness, equality, and opportunity for all. It’s about standing up for working families, protecting our environment, defending democracy, and ensuring that every person — no matter their background — has a voice and a fair chance to succeed.

To save democracy, citizens must remain active participants rather than passive observers. This means staying informed, voting responsibly, and holding leaders accountable. Education and critical thinking are vital to resist misinformation and polarization.
