Priority Issues:

I would like to help reduce the size of government, restore traditional family values and as a member of the NRA protect our Second Amendment rights.

I would like to be the advocate for the small business owner and help reduce the tax burden in Minnesota and make min a more business friendly state.

I would like to repeal MnSure because it is a failed system and because I am a brain tumor survivor and I know firsthand how important world-class health care is for us in Minnesota. I take this whole Mn sure disaster very personally and will fight to protect our world-class healthcare.

Reason for Seeking Public Office:

The reason I decided to run for office is I didn't like the direction this country and state was headed. It seems like the Liberal Democrats are trying to grow the government and give themselves more power and strip away our family values and rights.
