Why should voters elect you?
"My ABCs: Advocating the Best for Children. I believe none is stronger than a parent's driving force for public safety and excellence in education."
What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
"I cannot say that one problem is more urgent than another; however, running as a mother-legislator I pledge to stay focused on representing the interests of our children — including but not limited to health care, education and child care — and all the citizens of the 26th Legislative District."
