I am running for the Idaho State Senate because I believe my neighbors in District 3 deserve a new generation of innovative conservative leader dedicated to expanding economic opportunities for American citizens who are Idaho residents. I believe my background and my decades of advocacy makes me uniquely qualified to advocate for our freedoms and economic opportunities in the Idaho State Senate.
I like my government small, my taxes low, my borders strong and my speech free.
