A Governing Strategy, Not a Wish List

Let's be honest about the job. The Delegate to Congress from the Virgin Islands does not cast the final vote on the House floor. Any candidate who pretends otherwise is selling something.

Here's the truth that matters: a Delegate who knows the work has real power anyway. Delegates vote in committee — where most bills live or die. They sponsor and co-sponsor legislation. They fight for appropriations and federal dollars. They conduct oversight, build coalitions, and use the platform of a congressional office to force our issues onto the national agenda.
