And we won.

Obama Democrat

Our family went to President Obama's first Inauguration in 2009. In 2010, I was honored to meet the President one week before he signed the ACA into law. In 2012, I was also able to meet Michelle Obama.

From the beginning, I was all in for Barack Obama's campaign. Continued training from Organizing for Action has given me the courage to step up and serve the 24th Ward.

Advocate for Healthcare

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) was the foot in the door on the path to Universal Healthcare for citizens. Many lives were saved because of access to affordable insurance, that was once denied due to pre-existing conditions.

We must continue to stand for those who suffer in our Ward and State because MO did not expand Medicaid. We still have work to do for the future of our citizens.
