I believe women still face a glass ceiling that must be shattered.

I am fiscally prudent and socially progressive. I believe in protecting a woman's right to choose. I believe in marriage equality.

I believe we need to attract a new generation of the best and brightest to public service and I believe that government can be a source of inspiration, not degradation.

I believe it is actually fomenting the growth of ISIL; Donald Trump could be a recruitment poster for ISIL because he is fanning the flames of hate.

I believe global warming and climate change are real threats to our planet.

I believe public education is the new civil rights battle and I support charter schools.
