  • Public Safety is a very important issue that needs to be prioritized and addressed.
  • Inflation and the high cost of goods are a huge issue we are facing right now.
  • We need tax relief for our families and businesses. We had an excess of 15 billion dollars in tax revenue this year that never came back to help our communities.
Kyle demonstrated leadership during the darkest days of the Nooksack flooding leading recovery efforts and assisting those in need. His self-donating efforts earned the respect of local and regional leaders as he served his community. Even before this disaster he was known for building consensus and relationships. As a business owner, mayor and volunteer, he has brought the community together to solve challenging problems.

Kyle wants to bring this same leadership to the 42nd District. Kyle believes we must work to pass to our children and future generations a stronger and more vibrant community.
