WHY I AM RUNNING
FOR GOVERNOR
Supha is running for Governor because it's time for a REAL positive change and direction. She's cares about her home State of Arkansas.
As a philanthropist, business woman, serial entrepreneur and a former Fortune 500 Corporate Executive, she understands what is required to bring our State out of poverty and economic crisis. No one should go to bed hungry in the great United State of America! As you are aware, our state still has high food insecurities, which adversely impact our innocent children, seniors and veterans who are STILL going to bed HUNGRY today in 2025. Look at SNAP!
Her concerns are not only about the HEALTH AND WELFARE OF OUR STATE citizens, but that the tax dollars should be utilized for the people and the communities, not for the parties or positions. However, the tax dollars are for the people of Arkansas! She is a Peopletician, not a Politician, by Putting People1st and Inclusion. Without the people, there is NO STATE nor a need for government! Supha and the current leadership have very different philosophies. Supha believes in transparency, freedom of the press and putting people first.
The mission of any Governor's office is to serve the PEOPLE and not for the individual interest, title or their contributing supporters.
The difference in policies are putting PEOPLE1st AND BEING ACCESSIBLE to the PEOPLE. ALL LIVES MATTERS!
