Tell us about your campaign.

I have been an advocate and fighter for justice all of my life. I’m running for Congress to fight for our families, our values, and our future. The status quo is not working for us, and we cannot keep going with it. It is rigged for the wealthiest and most powerful against the rest of us. I will fight for working class people, for an increased minimum wage, for Medicare for all, for environmental and climate justice, and for equal economic opportunity too.

Describe your qualifications for this office.

No matter the cost, I will always defend our district with better laws and my voice to fight for the present and future we deserve. I have organized with thousands of people in Memphis against billion-dollar oil companies and polluters, and we’ve won time and time again. I speak up for justice in Memphis, Shelby County, and across the United States because I know People Power wins!
