Political Beliefs
I believe that Congress can, and must, do better. I feel called to ensure the North State has a representative who listens to them and fights for them.
We live in troubled times. Yet, troubled times give rise to big ideas, big movements, and big change. I am running for Congress because I want to be a part of the movement that inspires all people to engage with politics on a deeper level, to offer our talents, and to take our seats at the table.
It is my conviction that if we listen to each other and work together, it will be our hope, our success, and our joy that unite us.
I am incredibly proud to be a California Democrat and I will be an asset to my party and constituents. Our party is the party that champions the inherent rights and dignity of all people. That sentiment is at the core of my faith and the core of who I am , how I make decisions, and how I will lead.
Official Statement
Researched by Voter’s Edge
Source: Butte County Clerk-Recorder
Butte County deserves a representative who will listen to your concerns and fight for the issues you care about. I have spoken with many of you in coffee shops, community halls, churches, main streets, and back roads of our district. Here, we’ve recognized our shared vision of a thriving local economy with dignified jobs that sustain our available talent pools and encourage the next generation to raise their families in our communities. I will work for a future in which all students have access to quality education, and are prepared for jobs in our communities through Career and Technical Education. I will prioritize investments in our infrastructure, especially maintenance of our dams and roadways to ensure public safety and local jobs. I will work to ensure no person must choose between bankruptcy and health care, while upholding our commitment to veterans by fully funding the VA.
Work ethic, responsibility, and servant leadership were instilled in me throughout my involvement with 4H and as a state FFA officer. I’ve proudly built my deep background in agriculture, education, and nonprofit leadership upon these tenets while teaching agriculture at Chico State, owning a small ag business, volunteering at church, teaching in West Africa, and serving as president of the board of an international human rights organization. I will bring these same values to Washington, where I will fight to get corporate money out of politics and get our government back to work for you. www.audreyforcongress.com
