| Collapse all
- Focus on the Thumb. I see first hand the struggles occurring all over our District. I’m not the only one who feels this area has been forgotten! Let’s revive our communities and businesses together!
- No Satellite representation!! District 09 needs a representative who is present in all parts of the district! My goal is to represent all parts of the district! But it’s all hands on deck! Being present in this district as much as possible to be here first hands for the constituents!
- Get back to the Constitution! So many lawmakers fell our constitution is no longer prevalent and chaos is coming from it. I’m a firm believer in upholding the U.S. Constitution!
