Our Campaign’s Top Issues

Lowering Costs for Families

Jessica will fight rising costs by easing the property-tax burden, opposing unnecessary taxes and fees, demanding responsible state spending, and helping families build financial security.

Strong Schools

Jessica will fight for strong public schools, fair and responsible funding, support for educators, and career and technical education that prepares students for good-paying jobs.

Safe Communities & Supporting First Responder

Jessica will support police officers, firefighters, paramedics and emergency personnel by fighting for the staffing, training, equipment & resources they need to keep our communities safe.

Supporting Local Businesses & Creating Opportunity

As a small business owner, Jessica understands what it takes to create jobs and grow our local economy. She’ll fight to cut unnecessary bureaucracy, expand workforce training and skilled trades, and help local businesses succeed.

Responsible & Ethical Government

Jessica will demand transparency, accountability and responsible budgeting in Springfield—making sure taxpayer dollars are spent wisely and the public interest always comes before politics.

Infrastructure & Bringing Resources Home

Jessica will fight to bring the 97th District’s fair share of state resources home—investing in roads, schools, infrastructure, public safety and economic development throughout our communities.

Standing Up for Women

Jessica trusts women to make their own healthcare decisions. She supports a state constitutional amendment guaranteeing reproductive freedom. Jessica will work to strengthen access to reproductive healthcare, birth control, fertility treatment, and maternity care.
