I will fight for the rights of our BIPOC, AAPI and LGBTQ+ constituents
Common sense gun regulations do not equal taking away your guns. Our home owns and shoot guns. I do not believe that the second amendment means unrestricted access to firearms.
John Peura (Independent)
Public safety, education, and healthcare are my professional areas that I have spent the last 20 years employed in.
I am strong union supporter, not the right to work kind supporter.
Common sense gun control. LGBTQ+ rights are human rights. BIPOC rights are human rights. Getting wholesome and healthy food from small to medium farmers more directly to the consumer with less red tape for producers. Protecting the Indian Child Welfare Act. Protecting our natural resources and curbing climate change
John Peura (Independent)
