I am: Cameron Roberson, an alternate to the status quo; willing to hear the pros and cons to any proposed legislation; willing to invest in the capital improvement of Mississippi, and in particular the Gulf Coast; willing to work on behalf of the residents of District 120; willing to pursue legislation for school vouchers, legal hemp, and grocery tax exemptions (policies of the Mississippi Libertarian Party). Thank You.
Capital improvement of the Gulf Coast, including civil infrastructure (storm/sewer/water), flood and storm surge protection, and education/local business community development.

Thanks,
Respectfully,

Cameron
I find that people that are healthy in their body and personal relationships are worthy examples to follow.
Diligence. Legislatures must diligently investigate the costs and benefits of all proposed and existing legislation.
The core responsibilities of legislators are to diligently investigate the pros and cons of proposed legislation; and, discern the unacceptable cost/damage of existing law for striking.
Newspaper route manager (delivery and collections), age 13 to 15. I was a paper boy.
The legislature must trust the governor to execute the law, but verify its proper execution.
The state's biggest challenge in the next decade is to reverse the general decline of the educational, physical, and emotional health of its' residents.
There are many arguments for and against the importance of previous experience in government or politics.
It is beneficial to build healthy relationships with the whole of the legislature.
Yes. The legislature should grant and oversee emergency powers.
It is necessary to compromise for policymaking. It is unnecessary to violate one's convictions.
It would be rewarding to introduce a school voucher bill.
Education; Ports, Harbors, and Airports; and Marine Resources.
