- Safety: I support a fully funded and staffed police force and increased pay and training for our officers. I will be tough on crime and will work to keep criminals from being released back onto our streets.
- Economy: I support lowering our income tax. I will bring more tax dollars back to Louisville to increase funding for roads and infrastructure. We need to attract new businesses to Kentucky to create high-paying jobs and support small businesses so they will succeed and thrive.
- Education: I support the ability for families to choose the school or learning environment that best meets the student's needs. I support vocational training. Vocational training equips students with the practical skills, knowledge, and certifications needed to enter high-demand fields such as healthcare, manufacturing, information technology, and skilled trades to pursue rewarding careers and thrive in the workforce.
