Meet Josh
Josh is an ordained minister, small-business owner, and candidate for U.S. Congress to represent Virginia’s 5th District. He has been married to his wife, Minhee, for almost 20 years. They have two daughters, Lucy and Agnes.
Josh grew up in a farming family in a town of just 500 people. Life as a kid in that small town felt simple – play football, bail hay, and go to church. The lessons from that small town and its country church were simple too – work hard and serve others.
The desire to serve has been central to Josh’s pursuits, both pastoral and political. But it’s not just a desire to serve that inspires this campaign, it is also the fears of a father. Standing at the center of Josh’s candidacy for U.S. Congress are his two daughters, and the uncertain future they are inheriting.
America is facing incredible challenges. Our planet is in crisis. and there is no guarantee that it will remain habitable. Our national debt is spiraling out of control and there is no plan to address it. Communities of color suffer under systemic racism while rural communities remain long neglected. Democracy, the beating heart of this incredible nation, is under attack.
These issues threaten the future we hand our children. However, there is hope and there is opportunity! We can fight climate change and create jobs while building a more equitable future for all, but we need compassionate and common sense leadership to do it. That is why Josh is running for Congress – to serve the 5th district each and every day and to fight for a better future for our kids tomorrow. If you want to fight for that future too – join Josh!
