50-word statement: Students pay high tuition costs at state-supported colleges and universities. Parents are concerned about unaffordable college, how it impacts their children, and their future. The unaffordable and high cost of education pushes college students to borrow money to pay college tuition. Many graduates are burdened with student loan debt placing financial strain on their existent or future marriages while robbing their children of monetary resources. The current arrangement is not a family friendly or just means to access education. My legislative plan is to reduce college tuition and chart a path to undergraduate tuition waivers for all college students.

Three priorities: 1. College Tuition Reduction

2. Worker's Rights

3. Environmental Protection
