Every Kentuckian deserves the stability that comes from knowing they can afford the basics, a safe home, reliable transportation, healthcare that doesn’t break the bank, and utilities that don’t spike without warning. Too many families are working harder than ever and still falling behind, not because of personal choices, but because the cost of living keeps rising while wages and protections haven’t kept pace.

I believe affordability isn’t just an economic issue. It’s a quality‑of‑life issue. When people can meet their needs without constant financial stress, they can focus on building their future, supporting their families, and contributing to their communities.

That means working toward policies that:

  • Lower everyday costs, from groceries to prescription medications

  • Protect homeowners and renters from unfair increases and predatory practices

  • Strengthen consumer protections so Kentuckians aren’t taken advantage of

  • Support small businesses that keep our local economy strong

  • Ensure utility rates remain fair and transparent

  • Expand access to affordable healthcare and mental health services.

Kentucky should be a place where people can put down roots, raise a family, start a business, and retire with dignity, without being priced out of their own community. My commitment is to fight for practical, people‑first solutions that make life more affordable for everyone who calls District 33 home.
