BIG ENDORSEMENT: Run for Something

I am happy to share that I have received my first big endorsement from an organization that has been working tirelessly to support progressive candidates across the country.

Run for Something "recruit[s] and support[s] talented, passionate young people who will advocate for progressive values now and for the next 30 years, with the ultimate goal of building a progressive bench."

Run for Something endorsed 65 candidates running for local office across 18 states and I am humbled to be one of these talented leaders.

You may see more of the candidates here:

Thank you to all those who have contributed to my campaign and supported me so far.

I am not accepting developer contributions and I am running to bring about change in Howard County by working to break the grip that developers have on the county.

If you feel like residents have not had a voice in county government and that we need to break the influence that developers have on the county at our expense, this is your campaign.
