If You Only Listen to One Side, You Only Get Half the Storyā¦
During this campaign, I have made friendships that will last a lifetime. I am grateful for the support I have received from so many different people, from every side, every background, and every viewpoint. It means a lot to see folks who do not care about Republican or Democrat, but care about our kids and the foundation that helps them succeed. That kind of support far outweighs the few who have been mean or hateful along the way.
I am proud to be backed by strong community members, business minded folks, union and non union workers, teachers, bus drivers, maintenance crews, directors, aides, Republicans, Democrats, independents. People from every corner of Wayne County. People who may not agree on everything, but agree that our kids deserve the best.
Last year, I ran on a campaign of listening. Life has taught me that no matter where someone comes from or how much they know, there is always something worth learning if you are willing to listen. When you only listen to one side, you only get half the story. I want to hear from everyone because everyone has a seat at my table.
When people give me a hard time for not choosing one friend over another, I remind them that I am not going to change who I am. I will not dislike a person or a group just because someone else disagrees with them. That is not how I treat people. There is no buddy system with me. I believe in fairness, respect, and staying true to my Christian values.
WE ARE STRONGER TOGETHER!!!
