Candidate

My grandfathers were both World War II veterans; and my mother and father have been a teacher and a pastor, respectively, my whole life.  I am the regional director for the US Institute of Diplomacy and Human Rights and the Founder and Director of Village In Progress.  Public service has always been important to my family, but there is no service or satisfaction more important than being a parent. 

I'm running because I know one man can make a difference in America because of its design.   I work in the humanities sector, and if I told you what I've documented for the past decade, you wouldn't believe it.  If I told you that a justice was just appointed to the Supreme Court who couldn't say what a woman was, you would have to believe it.  If I told you the State of the Union address contained a promise to nominate an individual for the highest court in the land on non-meritocratic principles, you would have to believe it.   America is in a crisis, I believe it, so I'm doing everything in my power to protect Her.

Our organization gave feedback to the legislative committees during the 108th Session.  I testified in my professional capacity, meaning our testimony represents human rights interests.  I testified for all bills regarding the dignity and value of humanity, supporting LB626, LB574, and opposing Riepe's LB974, the eugenics bill, and Hunt's LR19CA, a proposed constitutional amendment to codify abortion rights in our constitution.  I opposed LB516 because it would have put more social workers and counselors in schools before addressing the disparity in medical consensus in that community on issues such as "gender care".  I supported Hardin's LB1269, for self-defense, Kauth's LB954, for bio-metric data protections, and testified alongside our fine governor for Hansen's LB1393, for intellectual property protections.  I testified neutral on Cavanaugh's LB99 because it excluded faith-based schools, and supported Bostar's LB627 because it included all schools, without distinction.  I wrote a letter of support for Kauth's LB575.
