I am a Christian, Constitutional, Conservative, in that order. I'm am running to serve you, and to defend Faith, Family, and Freedom. I am a Veteran who served in the Army for 6 years. I am a Pastor who has been in the ministry for over 17 years. I've been married to my lovely wife for over a decade and have 5 kids. I'm excited to serve my district in the NC House.
  • Faith: Brad believes in religious freedom, the sanctity of life at every stage, and the inclusion of faith-based classes and clubs in schools. He will protect religious rights in every area of life.
  • Family: Brad will fight to end Critical Race Theory in our schools and will support students and their families no matter where they go to school: public, private, or homeschool.
  • Freedom: Brad will stand firm on Constitutional rights. He will defend the 2nd Amendment, oppose vaccine and mask mandates, find ways to support our veterans and police, and fight against mandatory shut-downs. He will champion election integrity and voter ID requirements, as well as term limits in the State Assembly.
I believe in small, efficient government, that protects our borders and fosters economic prosperity. I am opposed to overreach from government and oppose mask and vaccine mandates. I believe that critical race theory and "gender education" should be removed from our schools and will support kids from all schools, including private and homeschool. I will defend the 2nd amendment, and will champion election integrity, voter ID requirements, and state term limits.
