It was a pleasure to receive the endorsement from United States Parents Involved in Education Action (USPIE Action).

A steady slide toward education not being transparent, racist indoctrination in classrooms such as CRT, parents being shut out, and federal overreach into our community’s classrooms. In Congress, I will be a champion for putting students first and returning the education to local communities and parents.
