Speak your mind in a relaxed setting while enjoying some home cooked food. There will be more opportunities for actual parts of the district in the future. If you can't attend, and you have something you want to let me know about please reach out. I will gladly make arrangements to speak with you.

Come and enjoy some food, meet me, and tell me what's on your mind. I want to hear from all of you. #togetherwerise #westvirginia #election2026 #democracy #forthepeople

Just got back from a Labor Day celebration. I love being with the people who value the hard work that it takes to make West Virginia home. The coal miners and Union members of West Virginia are still some of the best people you could ever be around.

Our citizens need protection and our Bad idea factory loves to dismantle protective regulations. The continual pollution of our state for sake of profit must stop. We deserve better!

Stand united for the people that can't stand on their own!

This order is trash and is meant to cause distraction through social turmoil. We need to stay focused on legitimately defeating those that support this kind of rhetoric.

Proof that ideals are greater than any one person. Our entire country was founded on ideals and as long as we hold them to be self-evident then no temporary force shall ever dismantle the fiber of our nation.
