| “ |
I am running for congress to fight for the American working family the taxpayer. As Americans, we must move beyond the past and focus on our future, which is what we will leave behind to our children and families. I am willing to make decisions that will benefit ALL Americans by making the American family my first priority above anything else. Putting American residents first is the only answer to saving working family. |
