- It’s time we fix the transparency problem that we have in Michigan! When you elect me, my job is to represent the whole district as well as keep the communication at its highest with my constituents.
- Our educational system is not setting our students up for success. We need to remove DEI, premature sex-ed, and other agendas that don’t fit with the common core curriculum. We need to influence the trade industry as that not only helps the trade industry, but it helps create long lasting jobs.
- The taxes in the state have to be lowered begin the process to abolish them. In the property tax, why are you paying taxes 2 times a year on your own property? First it’s taxation without representation, but also it affects many home owners especially our senior citizens. The income tax is stopping the people from keeping their hard earned money to provide food on the table. It’s time we fix this!
