I believe health care is a right, not a privilege, not something only the wealthiest 1 percent can afford it should have.
We deserve better than a win-at-all-costs mentality.
I don't think the government should be involved in a woman's right to choose what is happening to her body.
Part of the problem with politics is we don't have people who want to get in the fray because of guys like Sen. McConnell, who essentially invented negative campaigning.
My husband's a Republican.
I've spent my adult life in the national security realm.
If President Trump has good ideas, I'll be for them.
Trump promised to bring back jobs. He promised to lower drug prices for so many Kentuckians. And that is very important.
I'm somebody who looks at things through the lens of being a wife and being a mother and being a United States Marine.
I'm not a polished politician.
We need to make meaningful, uh, adjustments, here in this country with criminal justice, with education inequities, with real racial inequities in terms of health care.
America should lead in addressing climate change.
They perform an essential function in keeping our borders secure and I oppose an abolishing of ICE.
I learned in the Marines to leave no one behind, but after 34 years in Washington, Mitch McConnell left our coal miners behind years ago.
I believe that we need to have a public option.
Climate change is absolutely real and if you don't believe that you ought to believe every four-star general in our military is planning for it.
When you talk about the coal communities we need a senator to protect the benefits these coal miners need and deserve and earned, because coal powered our country in the 20th Century.
There are so many places in our state that are just economically desolated and so what they're looking for are good quality jobs and how we get that back.
I am deeply concerned about the leadership of the national Democratic Party.
My husband and I, we are not Democrat or Republican first. We are Americans first.
I was unwilling and we remain unwilling to be part of the problem. I was unwilling to be part of the problem just to get to the office.
If we were to build a health care system from scratch, single-payer would be the way to go. But we have a very complex health care system in America.
It's typical of Andy Barr and his team, taking things out of context.
When I was an Independent I believed the same things I believe now as a Democrat. I was an Independent because I was a military officer. I felt like that was the best thing to do because I wanted to be a leader and I didn't want to influence people under me in that way.
As somebody who has spent her entire adult life defending this country, I'd say defending our elections is a fundamental part of defending our democracy.
