I have always supported women's rights and everyone's right to bodily autonomy. I'm the only candidate who truly respects women's rights and and their personal boundaries. I'm the only person in the legislature who lost my seat because I supported marriage equality. So when I say I want to represent everybody, I truly mean everybody. I believe in climate change and I have solutions to help us move to more renewable energy that doesn't do destruction on the other side of the planet. (01:45–01:54)
