For the Working Class,

Introductory photo

At 14, I watched my father be detained and deported.

I’ve dedicated my life to fighting for working people – in the classroom, in union halls, and in public service. I chose this path because no one should face the injustices my family did.

Higher Wages

Medicare For All

Immigration Justice

No More Endless Wars
