| Collapse all
- 1. Public safety needs to be addressed: crime + fentanyl + support for law enforcement.
2. We need to focus on affordability: cost of living + housing + healthcare costs.
3. Rule of law & stability must be maintained: immigration that’s legal + restoring civil, effective governance. - Colorado is getting too expensive, too divided, and too unsafe. I’m running to restore a law-abiding society, defend free speech, and bring accountability back to government—so working families can afford to live here and communities can feel safe again.
- Safe Colorado: back law enforcement, enforce the rule of law, stop fentanyl and repeat offenders. Affordable Colorado: attack the cost of living—housing pressure, insurance spiral, predatory debt, and energy costs. Accountable Colorado: cut waste, expose corruption, protect privacy, and make government work like it’s spending its own money.
2) Constitutional Rights & Civil Liberties
3) Immigration: Legal, Orderly, and Non-Disruptive
4) Homelessness, Mental Health & Addiction Reform
5) Affordability & Inflation Relief
6) Seniors & Safety-Net Integrity
7) Tax & Government Reform
8) Healthcare Reform & Coverage Transitions
9) Life & Women’s Health
10) Energy & Cost of Power
11) Welfare Reform & Work Pathways
12) Education Cost & Workforce Development
13) Veterans Reform
14) Animal Protection
