Protecting Liberty
Every freedom-loving American should be fighting mad right now.
Whose freedom is safe now? I’m fighting for a future where Americans are still free. Free to pursue the American dream; free to peacefully protest, free to control their bodies, and free from reckless, incompetent, and cruel federal policies. Policies that carelessly wreck the economy, stoke inflation, and slash vital public services that seniors, veterans, and children depend on. By slashing funding that Congress appropriated to help fight disease, find cures for cancer, and bring food to disabled seniors and veterans, they are wrecking the checks and balances system vital to our democracy. America won independence from a King before; we can do it again.
The President has ordered the Justice Department to investigate and prosecute citizens by name for treason just because they criticized the President or his policies. The Administration is trying to ban journalists and revoke licenses for news outlets that publish stories it doesn’t like. I can’t believe this is happening in America. Taking back Congress is the only way to check this abuse of power!
Democracy and the rule of law are what separate America from tin-pot dictatorships, and the worst devils of our natures. Tyrants persecute, silence, and imprison their critics because they are too cowardly to confront their mistakes. Democracy can’t be brushed aside because it’s inconvenient or annoying to some. Lying to judges, arresting people without due process, and disregarding legitimate court orders are all examples of how democracies throughout history have died.
Our democracy is what makes America great. I’m running to make sure we stay free, and I won’t back down.
