As a former banker, I know firsthand how the economy works. I spent forty years helping people achieve their dreams of buying a home, sending their children to college and starting businesses. Just as I was in my banking career, I will continue to be a champion for growing and protecting the middle class as District 13’s next Member of Congress.

Middle-class families are the foundation of what makes our country great, and we must enact policies that help working families grow and thrive. I will work to provide middle-class tax relief through a range of policies, including raising the estate tax exemption, making higher education more affordable and providing relief from skyrocketing homeowners' insurance rates. I will also work to promote permanent tax relief for the middle class by ending the marriage penalty and extending child and small business tax credits.
