Reason for Seeking Public Office:
As a father, lawyer, retired Air Force officer, public servant and hard-working American, I worry about the polarizing national debate over the core principles that govern our country. Parents and grandparents are rightly concerned about mounting economic burdens facing their children and grandchildren. Hard-working individuals and families struggle with budgets that barely get them from one paycheck to the next. Many people are dismayed as they watch their hard-earned money get wasted on government excess. Ever increasing regulations threaten the viability of small businesses and gaps in education make finding the right employees increasingly difficult. Americans nearing retirement fear their savings and investments in Social Security and other pensions may not adequately provide for them. Meanwhile, Government continues shortchanging men and women in the military, law enforcement and emergency services--the people we count on to keep this country safe, prosperous and free. And, many believe significant barriers continue to hold back women and minorities who are working hard to pursue their American dream.
