Each state’s Congressional delegation, alongside state and local leaders, should develop a prioritized list of projects. States should be allocated money based on individual infrastructure ranking and proportion of population #twittercongress

Our five year goal should be to raise our infrastructure rating from a D- to a C- over five years, and to a B- over ten.

But we can’t stop there. We must prioritize national transportation projects, including high speed rail, to ensure we are competitive globally to enable rapid, efficient transit in an increasingly global economy.

We must also protect our energy grid. We got proof this week that Russians have attempted to hack our grid. And it’s vulnerable. I’ve worked on initiatives to protect our grid, but we must do more.

Finally, with all of the above, we must change how we award contracts in this country. We have seen consequences of awarding federal dollars to unprepared contractors. We have seen that shortcuts can lead to disastrous results.

We must insist on quality. We must insist that the rich don’t get richer when delivering substandard work. We must protect our country and we must think forward to

I’m honored to be with an amazing group of future legislators in this discussion and I look forward to our in person conversations when we are all elected. Our future is at stake. We are all fighting for the many, not the few.

I’m the youngest Congressional candidate in the country, here in
#NC06 and would be the youngest elected since JFK. I’ve worked on projects, like infrastructure in 30 states.#twittercongress1 reply 2 retweets 6 likes -

Our district is even more flippable than Conor Lamb’s was in
#PA18. I need your help so that we can turn the page in this country and elect true statesmen (and women). https://secure.actblue.com/entity/fundraisers/52929 …1 reply 4 retweets 6 likes -

I’m looking forward to future conversations. Let’s keep engaging and listening. We will be better for it. I’ll pass it off to our wonderful next (future) member of Congress

Lots to think about so far. We do have very diverse districts. High speed rail not first on our hit list in #ME02...we are closing in on pot hole season here. Very poignant on both foreign interventions and funding options.

Florida’s 17th District has a number of infrastructure issues. I’ll talk about three. Agriculture is an enormous part of the economy in my district. We could benefit from educational programs to bring the farm technology into this century.
