I chose to run for Congress because of an idea.
The idea is a simple one, that we can enjoy greater freedom and liberty if we aren’t held back by debt and disease.
For those who have to choose between buying the groceries and buying their insulin, yet wonder why insurance company CEOs are the highest paid, I hear you.
Medical bills. Student loan debt. Ballooning mortgage rates.

Like many other first-time candidates in this election, I have no experience in the kind of politics that Huizenga has.
And especially in the area of our healthcare, corporate greed will get people killed.
I have seen the grandfather who was denied a surgery and lost his battle with heart disease.
I have seen the veteran who couldn’t get treatment for his PTSD in time, and took his own life.
I’m running because I want to put the power back into the hands of the people – into your hands.
