Priority Issues:

I believe the #1 priority for our tax dollars should be to provide for our core services - schools, roads, and public safety.

I believe small businesses are the backbone of our economy.

I believe ours is not a problem of not enough resources, but rather a problem of waste and inefficiency. The role of our government isn't to be all things to all people and it is past time we stop trying to be.

I believe we must continue to strive for excellence in our schools. We need to hold our schools, our teachers, our parents, and most importantly our children accountable for their education. I believe this is best achieved by promoting local control of our schools and by allowing teachers, administrators, and parents a strong voice in the way in which we educate our children.

I believe in protecting our second amendment rights and will fight any infringement of that right by our federal government
