Register to Vote!

Everyone has a story to tell in these tough times and I’ve been privileged to meet individuals, families, small business owners, health care workers, teachers, seniors, students, and others who have shared their stories with me. My focus and legislative priorities have been shaped by these shared stories.

Now it’s time for you to share your story in another powerful way – vote!

I’ve assembled important election information in this email for you. I hope that you find it helpful – feel free to send it along to your family and friends to make sure they don’t miss any important deadlines.
