Not only were we able to make the community safer, we were able to get someone who was struggling with addiction, without insurance, into rehab at no cost to the taxpayer.
We have an amazing community & I feel privileged that I am in a position to fight for it every day.

“Tonight’s election results should scare the hell out of Andy Ogles.”
While Ogles is busy running his circus, families here are getting crushed by skyrocketing housing costs, grocery bills that keep rising, factory layoffs, and a broken healthcare system.

Being a Dad challenges me to be more present and patient every day.
One of my favorite Dad/Buddy moments with Linc is when he asks me to go for a run. He chooses the route and tells me when he wants to run and walk.
Here's to all the people trying to figure it out one baby step at a time.

Ran into some old friends this weekend and made a lot of new ones.
Meeting new people and learning about their story is one of my favorite things to do. I'm very lucky that my role with the county and this campaign give me the opportunity to do that everyday.

Expanding access to careers in the trades helps young people get high-paying, important jobs without debt burden. It also solves for critical labor shortages in essential industries, future-proofing our infrastructure and national security.

We had a great time at the Overton Fall Festival today. The students produced and ran the entire event.

Great time in Nolensville last night. Chatted with some old friends and made a lot of new ones.
Everyone I talk to feels America is out of balance.
I’m running to make sure regular people have a shot. If you work hard today, tomorrow should be a little better.

Had a great time at the DCDP Honors Dinner last week.
Everyone there agreed that life for most Americans is getting harder by the day.
I believe if you work hard today, tomorrow should be a little better. I'm running to make sure we get back to that.
Let's do this!

American families and workers are hurting. America used to be a place where if you worked hard today, tomorrow would be a little better. Big Money in politics has destroyed that promise.
I'm running to restore that promise.

A. Ogles keeps telling us the economy is booming. Why does he refuse to acknowledge that his neighbors are suffering?
The people who grow things, make things, and fix things deserve a rep that puts their needs above the needs of party bosses and big money lobbyists.

Social Media tells us were different. My conversations on the ground tell me SM is wrong. Everyone wants the opportunity to do a little better tomorrow, to be safe, and don't want the government telling them how to live their life. That is why I'm bullish on our future.
