Extended statement (Statewide candidates only):

I am running for U.S. Senate because too many Delawareans are getting left behind. As a veteran, mother, and community advocate, I have witnessed the struggles working families face firsthand.

Like so many others, I have had to work multiple jobs and still struggle to pay the bills. I have had to choose between going to the doctor and putting food on the table. I understand that we all want the same things: the opportunity to live, thrive, and build a better future for our children.Yet every year, we see corporations getting richer while ordinary Americans have a harder and harder time just getting by. We need leaders who represent and engage ALL of us, and who will fight for policies that lift up all of our communities, like a $15 minimum wage, Medicare for All, universal pre-k, and an end to mass incarceration. It’s time to come together and put people First.
