It's wrong that members of Congress can purchase luxury airfare with taxpayer money when many families in my district and across the county are struggling to make ends meet.

It's a start. But, honestly, I believe to raise percentages of salaries in this county across the district, we would need more money.

I'm a proud fighter for the little guy and the people of my state who are struggling to make ends meet. That's what Louisiana values are about.

I think the personal satisfaction of doing good in the community and increasing value and holding true to the Hippocratic oath and being able to provide services to those that are in need is very strong moral reason to provide services for the underserved.

I'm a doctor; we work in teams. I'm very committed to problem solving.

Republicans have come up to me to say, 'Hey listen. My knee hurts. What do you think I should do?' I'll give them my recommendations.
