- Investing in our roads, schools and other infrastructure across the State of North Carolina now, will pay dividends in the long term development of our state.
- It is important for us, as a state to maintain some form of bi-partisan nature when addressing legislative issues. It has to be people over party sometimes, find a compromise and do what's best for all citizens.
- Many of our laws and policies are outdated, we need someone in Raliegh who is coming in with fresh eyes, and a clear mindset and put a new perspective on the issues of today.
