From the grace of God, I have a beautiful family (my wife Stephanie, my oldest Cooper, and my twins Stella and Colton). We recently added a Boston Terrier, Bella.
- Campaign Finances are DISGUSTING! Have you ever imagined the outcome if we took all of the money spent on political campaigns and used it to solve every day problems? The NUMBER ONE reason I am running is to lead by example and hold our politicians accountable by passing legislation to force ITEMIZED RECEIPTS on campaign finance reports! Politicians are laundering money and it MUST STOP! FixOhioPolitics.com/finances
- We MUST have medical FREEDOM! No one has the right to tell you to wear a mask or get a vaccine! I will pass legislation to prevent ANYONE from being forced to wear a mask again (schools, private businesses, etc)! I will also sign the HB248 discharge petition and will vote YES on HB248! Our current Representative, Tracy Richardson, does not believe in medical freedom. For a breakdown, check out... FixOhioPolitics.com/medicalfreedom
- Election Integrity is a problem in Ohio! My job as an Electrical Engineer is to break stuff! Check out FixOhioPolitics.com/electionintegrity for details... I will bring honest elections back to Ohio by pushing election integrity legislation (1. Election DAY not election month, 2. A State issued Photo ID or Passport will be required to vote, 3. Ballot images, physical ballots, and Absentee ballots will be public record requests, 4. There will be NO ballot drop boxes, 5. County election board members will be ELECTED officials! Not appointed by the party central committees!, 6. The 100ft rule at polling locations is outdated! There will be NO campaigning at polling locations!)
Most bills are crap! I will look at ways to break bills such that when they pass "unintended" loopholes are closed. I will also follow President Trump's strategy... For every bill added, two bills must be removed! Finally when a constitutional crisis occurs, I will PUSH the Ohio Assembly to operate with a sense of URGENCY!
The State of Ohio's job is to protect us from the federal government!
1. Protect us from an overreaching federal government. State level decisions are important! Over the last two years, our state government could have overrode Governor DeWine and protected us from ALL Covid restrictions. Instead, most of our state representatives failed us and did the bare minimum.
2. Primary and Secondary Education Committee (All decisions need to be made on the local level!)
A. Corrupt the young. get them away from religion, get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, destroy their ruggedness.
B. Get control of all means publicity thereby:
1. Get the peoples minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books and plays and other trivialities.
