In an interview with The State back in January, Brown explained why he decided to run for office:
“I’ve led teams my entire life,” Brown, 31, said in a statement. “Right now Washington needs leaders who can bring people together and start delivering real results for working families. We are more divided than we’ve ever been in my lifetime and Congress seems more interested in playing politics than solving problems.”
Brown will face Republican incumbent Ralph Norman, who has been in Congress since 2017.
