Small businesses and working families are the backbone of Washington’s 8th District. I’ll cut red tape, simplify taxes, and expand job training—while improving infrastructure, modernizing small business support, and protecting the right to repair because when small businesses thrive, families and communities thrive.

In Washington’s 8th District, small businesses and working families are the backbone of our economy, but they’re being crushed by red tape and rising costs. I know this firsthand—my husband runs a small business. I see the challenges entrepreneurs face every day just trying to keep their doors open.

That’s why I’ll fight to simplify the tax code, cut needless regulations that strangle growth, and invest in infrastructure that helps rural businesses compete. I’ll also expand job training, apprenticeships, and technical education so every student has a pathway to a real career.

And I’ll modernize how we support small businesses—from easier access to capital to the right to repair, so local shops can compete and families save money. Because when small businesses thrive, families and communities thrive.
