States have power!
I believe states that fight for unity
can forge a unique identity
and find they have autonomy
putting more of their destiny
INTO. THEIR. OWN. HANDS!
We have been tested as a country.
Testing that has exposed the competency
and incompetency
of our leaders.
All states went through the same fiery challenges!
Not all states fared the same.
The states that simply followed
the national narrative
shut down their schools and locked down their businesses
damaging their kids and their economies!
States with strong, united leadership
made different courageous choices
allowing their schools and businesses to remain open
therefore allowing their kids and their economies to remain healthy!
Lincoln is the capital city!
In so many ways, Lincoln brings Nebraska together,
from the Unicameral to the University!
With a national agenda continuing to be promoted
that at times is in stark contrast to Nebraska values
I believe Lincoln could play a critical role as a catalyst for unity
helping to bring Nebraska together around our shared identity
leveraging our autonomy
and taking more of our destiny
into our own hands!
If elected mayor
this would be a top priority!
Without compromising Lincoln’s interest
I would seek to work synergistically with the governor
and other state and city officials to those ends!
If we STAND together
we can STAND for what we believe,
STAND against what we don’t,
and STAND out as a state who knows who we are!
