| Collapse all
- We need to protect the rights of all people from government over-reach. Regardless of what you believe, it is the not the governments job to force us into a nanny-state where our personal lives and choices are dictated by the government.
- We must use tax dollars to provide services to the community. We must fund and provide infrastructure, high quality education, affordable education, improve health care quality and access, and better emergency services that are there to serve all members of the community. We are already taxed way too heavily. We need to reduce taxes and ensure the tax dollars collected are used to improve the lives of everyone in the community, as apposed to pet projects and pork.
- I am a big believer in term limits for all branches and levels of government. I believe serving in public office should be a public service and community service and not a career path. I'm not a professional politician, nor should anyone be. I am a well educated member of the community with a desire to make my state a better place for my daughter, friends, family, neighbors, and community.
