My Town N' Country neighbors sure know how to celebrate the benefits they have earned and deserve. I will always fight against President Trump and Congressional Republicans tax breaks for the rich so you can live your retirement years in dignity.

American families and businesses deserve better than the higher cost of living and corruption of the Trump Administration and colluding polluters.

My full statement:

Americans deserve better than corruption and collusion!

EPA is giving free rein to polluters w/o regard to increasingly expensive & deadly heat waves, floods, droughts & dirty air.

you, while billionaires & polluters pocket massive profits.

Dangerous and costly!

The time to act is now!

Critical tax credits are expiring at the end of the year. Take advantage now to save your pocketbook and our planet!

We all deserve affordable electric bills.

It is past time the Occupational Safety and Health Administration implement stronger heat-related protections for our workers!
