to keep ag communities strong and growing and affordable housing in small rural communities. She also said it's important to help veterans and be sure they have affordable housing. Preservation of our First Amendment Rights is also on the candidates priority list.

When MSC News asked Willnerd why she feels she is the best candidate for the position, she said, “because I'm a woman, and that she will fight for whatever is needed.” Willnerd says its important to be able to work with all kinds of people and that she would advocate for everyone.
