Protecting Our Promise: Safeguarding Social Security and Senior Rights
Our seniors, who have given their best years to building a brighter future for us all, deserve to retire with the dignity and security they have earned. Yet, today, they face an uncertain future as the pillars of Social Security and Medicare show signs of strain. In the Senate, I will oppose any attempts to undermine these critical programs and will work tirelessly to improve and expand them by making sure they have sustainable funding sources. From protecting pensions to ensuring affordable access to healthcare, including long-term care and prescription drugs, my vision is clear: to craft policy that treats our elders with the reverence they deserve, providing a secure and vibrant quality of life.

Revitalizing Industry: Boosting Manufacturing and Fair Trade Policies
West Virginia has fueled and forged the nation, yet our workers find themselves at a crossroads, facing a future where old industries wane and new technologies rise. My vision involves harnessing our traditional manufacturing prowess while pivoting towards the industries of the future. In the Senate, I will fight for policies that drive innovation, support fair trade that benefits our workers, and craft foreign policies that protect American interests from foreign dumping and other anti-competitive practices and promote global stability. Our work ethic is unmatched; our policies should match this strength. Let’s lay the groundwork for a renaissance in American manufacturing, right here in West Virginia, for generations to come.

Supporting Families: Create Affordable, Quality Childcare Options
For the hardworking families of West Virginia, accessible and affordable child care is not just another policy—it is a lifeline. It is the assurance that their children are in safe hands while they contribute to our state’s prosperity. Yet for too many, this necessity remains out of reach. I will strive to change this reality. My mission in the Senate will be to advocate for comprehensive child care solutions that support our families, fortify our workforce, and foster our future. This means championing policies that subsidize child-care costs, enhance the quality of care, and build the infrastructure of care facilities our state desperately needs. It’s time to ensure that child care becomes a cornerstone of our social infrastructure, as fundamental as the roads we travel on and the bridges that connect us.

KEEPING OUR FUTURE BRIGHT: Strategies to Retain and Engage Our Youth
We need a concerted strategy to retain our young talent and ensure they see a future in West Virginia—in the state they call home. I am committed to building pathways that connect education to local careers, investing in tech and innovation hubs that keep our brightest minds engaged, and enhancing cultural and recreational options that make staying in West Virginia not just a viable choice, but the preferred one. We must create an environment where our youth can flourish and see opportunities in their own communities.

Home for Every West Virginian: Affordable Housing Solutions for Our Communities
In West Virginia, the right to a roof over one’s head is fundamental. Yet, affordable housing remains out of reach for too many, as families grapple with stagnating wages and rising costs. My vision is clear: to implement housing policies that increase affordability, enhance housing quality, and expand accessibility for all our residents. We will work to incentivize new developments, refurbish our historic buildings into livable spaces, and provide grants to first-time homebuyers. A home for every West Virginian is not just a goal; it is a commitment to the stability and prosperity of our families and our future.

Voices from the Fields: Elevating and Empowering Rural Communities
Our rural communities often lack the support they need to thrive in a changing economic landscape. I am committed to changing that narrative by championing policies that support agricultural innovation, expand rural healthcare, bridge the digital divide, and preserve the natural beauty of our countryside. We will invest in infrastructure that connects our rural areas to the broader economy, fostering opportunities that keep these communities vibrant. Together, we can ensure the voices from the fields are heard and that rural West Virginia continues to be a cornerstone of our state’s identity and economy.
