“This Campaign Is About the Common Good.”

I’m not in this race to divide people. I’m in it to remind us that politics should be rooted in respect, care, and accountability - in loving our neighbors and working for the common good.
Let us be honest about the moment we are living in. Powerful people are trying to roll back policies that fight racial inequality, weaken protections for LGBTQIA+ Americans, soften the language on hate symbols, and even redefine which groups qualify as domestic terrorists.

The AP article below is a powerful reminder about what happens when people look out for one another. Giving our time, supporting our neighbors, showing up for our community.

Why doing good also makes us feel good, during the holidays and beyond
The holiday season is a popular time for volunteering, but experts say giving back is beneficial year-round.

In rural New York, hospitals are not luxury amenities. They are lifelines. A recent Op-Ed from a resident in Jamestown shows just how dangerous the state of rural health care has become.

Rural hospital funding far from restored
You have to hand it to U.S. Rep. Nick Langworthy. Not everyone would be willing to go out in the rain and stand in front of a microphone to tell us temporary funding for rural hospitals that offsets o...

The results in Tennessee’s 7th District tell us something important about the moment we are living in. A district that has voted the same way for decades came close to choosing a new direction.

Thirty-year-olds are not “delaying adulthood.” They are doing everything right in an economy where the basics were pushed out of reach. Housing. Healthcare. Childcare. Stability.

We fix this by rebuilding the Common Good so everyone can move forward with dignity and fairness.

Every winter, families across NY23 hold their breath when the lights flicker. Rural communities feel it the most. Power lines that fail too often. Roads that freeze faster than they can be cleared. Broadband that goes dark when people need information most.

Storm season reminds us of who we are. Western New Yorkers step up for one another. We check on older neighbors. We dig out driveways that are not our own. We make sure every family feels seen & supported.

This is the Common Good in action.

Our country cannot afford leaders who inflame tensions and put public servants in danger. We need calm, steady governance that protects people and gets things done for all of us.

WNY deserves leaders who listen before they talk. That is why this Talk of the Tiers conversation matters so much.

If you want a district powered by decency, dignity, and accountability, take a few minutes and watch.

Western New York is already facing a serious nursing shortage. Congressman Langworthy supports student loan restrictions that make it harder for future nurses to get the education they need. That means fewer providers in the clinics and hospitals that keep our communities healthy.

Music brings people together. It reminds us to slow down, listen, and find the harmony we can build when we choose connection over division. That is the spirit Aaron brings to this campaign.

Aaron’s wife, Katie, caught him. Again. He’s “just here for the cute animals,” but this is who he is. He shows up. He cares. He listens. That is the heart of this campaign.

Caring for our communities is not a slogan. It is the work.

Rep. Langworthy finally voted to #releasethefiles What changed? Just his orders. If we want safety and justice, we need a leader with integrity, not a loyal soldier for a party or a leader.

Congress is preparing to vote on releasing the Epstein files, and the choice before us could not be clearer.

Survivors have asked for truth and accountability. Washington keeps slipping into politics and distraction.
