About this candidate response

DutyStation contacts candidates to ask whether and how they support service members, military families and veterans, and invites them to share their thoughts and priorities. We share their replies here in the candidate’s or campaign’s own words, with minor formatting for readability and correction of obvious spelling mistakes.

No endorsement in either direction. Publishing a reply does not mean DutyStation endorses the candidate. Replying does not mean the candidate or campaign endorses DutyStation.

DutyStation’s website summaries and policy assessments are labeled separately.

Election reflections. Brief answers to DutyStation’s questions about hope, America’s future, unity, the next generation and a closing message. These reflections do not establish detailed military-family or veterans policy positions.

Hope heading into the election

  • I've spent months hitting the streets and meeting voters across West Virginia, and their optimism for the future gives me hope. Our state and this country have a lot of problems facing them, but people have woken up to the fact that we're on the wrong track. And they're ready to choose a different path forward.

Vision for America

  • Affordable. Healthy. Prosperous.

Bringing Americans together

  • After Election Day, I hope Americans come together to end this unnecessary war in Iran, make life more affordable for hardworking families, and ensure that everyone can get the healthcare they need when they need it.

The next generation

  • I hope the next generation inherits a better healthcare system. Our current system is fundamentally broken. People can't afford health insurance, and when they can, they still struggle to pay for co-pays and meet deductibles. Our current Congressional Delegation has made this worse, particularly for service members, by cutting funding for the Veterans Health Administration.

Closing message to voters

  • Inflation is through the roof, gas prices are higher than ever, and we're spending millions daily on an unnecessary war in the Middle East that is putting our service members in danger. Instead of spending that money on another war, I want to invest in our own country to make sure health care is affordable and hard-working families can get ahead.

Policy review pending. The campaign response is published above; independent assessment and official-record review remain separate.

Independence & editorial disclaimer

DutyStation publishes these profiles as independent editorial research. This page is not authorized, sponsored, approved or endorsed by any candidate, campaign or political party. Inclusion, campaign links and published responses do not constitute an endorsement by DutyStation, and a campaign’s participation does not mean it endorses our assessment.

DutyStation is not an official government, Department of Defense, military service or Department of Veterans Affairs publication. Names, images and links identify the subjects and sources; they do not imply affiliation or endorsement.

Policy summaries, potential benefits, tradeoffs and any scores are editorial assessments under our published methodology, not measures of patriotism or recommendations on how to vote. Forecasts are estimates, not guarantees. Missing information, an unpublished score or a campaign’s lack of response is not evidence of opposition to the military, military families or veterans.

Profiles may use AI-assisted research and summarization, which can contain errors. Coverage is incomplete and reflects the sources and review dates shown; positions and records can change. Check the linked original sources. Campaign statements and responses represent the campaign’s own claims, not independently verified outcomes. When published, responses will be attributed and distinguished from DutyStation’s analysis; providing a response does not confer editorial control.

For additions or factual corrections, email editor@dutystation.ai with the profile link, the disputed passage and supporting sources. DutyStation will review submissions and correct material where the evidence supports a change. External websites are controlled by their respective publishers.
