VIEWPOINTS: We asked District 23 candidates: This race has become a bitter one. Why do you think that is, and how does that help your constituents?
Truth about Reed's voting record hurts him. My mother taught me that when you saw something wrong, you had an obligation to stand up for what was right. That is why I announced my candidacy for the 23rd Congressional District nearly two years ago, because I felt that the working families of our district were not being represented in Washington. I think two people who run against each other can have an honest disagreement on the issues - that's what a healthy democracy is all about. Read more »

VIEWPOINTS: What should the U.S. role be in the expanding conflict in Syria and Iraq? Would you support re-deploying U.S. combat troops to that region?
Mission must not involve troops. After more than a decade of war, Americans are rightly concerned about the possibility of another long-term, extended conflict in Iraq and Syria. But we also have the responsibility to respond —together with international partners — in conflicts where Americans are threatened, and terrorist organizations grow in strength. Striking that balance requires leadership. Read more »
