Democracy IS NOT a spectator sport.
Please find a way of getting informed and involved.
A famous Thomas Jefferson quote on education and democracy is: "I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education".
Introducing Project 2030

American Dream or Illusion?
NO More WAR
Justin comments on his Marine Corps service from 2003-2012. Although peace is the ultimate goal, we must also be able to fight for what we believe in.
As odd as it may sound, my time serving across war-torn nations - has deepened my appreciation of peace and diplomacy.
We have a lot of problems to solve.
Why are you running for office?
Similar to why I joined the Marine Corps infantry in 2003 after graduating high school, I feel a call to serve.

We need term limits, removal of dark money and lobbying from the system, non-partisan primaries or ranked-choice voting options, etc.
-
The federal budget rests more on the backs of individual earners than it does on the backs of wealthy corporations - it's due time that changes!
