Gilmanton District Dialogue

I think there is a lot politicians can learn from our communities. So I began my campaign by circling up with voters across the district and asking "What do you wish politicians understood better?" In an era where so many candidates are expected to be content creators, I have made a different choice: to stay grounded in real conversations and spend time listening to people instead of talking at them. On Wednesday night in Gilmanton, we began this conversation. 

That night, I heard from people who feel afraid for themselves and their families because of Trump’s attacks on our Constitution, from elderly residents concerned by rising property taxes, and from parents and grandparents worried about the continued defunding of our public schools. Beyond policy, I heard over and over from attendees who feel like politicians aren’t fighting for their communities -- and that politics has left too many people behind. During this campaign, and in Congress, I will never stop showing up, listening to, and fighting for Granite Staters no matter where they live or what party they belong to -- because everyone deserves leaders who listen.
