The Issues
1
Mental
Health
In Iowa, the need for investment in mental healthcare has never been more critical. With limited access to mental health services, many Iowans face significant barriers in seeking and receiving the care they desperately need. I have seen this first hand with my experience as a public defender and Iowans deserve better. I am determined to secure more accessible and affordable mental healthcare for all Iowans, especially right here in District 28.

Common Sense Gun Policy
Enacting common-sense gun legislation is a vital step in protecting our communities and kids across Iowa. By implementing measures such as background checks, closing loopholes in existing laws, and promoting responsible gun ownership, we can prevent firearms from falling into the wrong hands. These actions not only respect the Second Amendment but also prioritize public safety and ensure that individuals with dangerous intentions are unable to access firearms.
3
Bodily Autonomy
Protecting bodily autonomy and reproductive rights is essential for ensuring the fundamental freedoms and rights of individuals. At its core, the right to make decisions about one's own body is a cornerstone of personal liberty and dignity. Decisions that should be made between a woman and her doctor are now being made in the state house. It's all politics, and Iowans deserve better than that, for the health and wellbeing of our communities.
