Education is key to the success of individuals and our state
Freedom to allow businesses and individuals to be successful

Children are our future, but there are problems in the current education system. Our schools must return to teaching basic and foundational academic and life skills. Elementary school students have to be equipped with great reading, writing, and basic Math skills. Vocational training and cooperation with local businesses with high schools is crucial. All Michigan students must have access to a great education, and measures must be taken to vastly reduce drop-out rates. Environmental policies must be realistic and be balanced with the economic needs of our state. If our residents don't have jobs, they can't afford to pay skyrocketing energy bills that are connected to unrealistic environmental timelines.
Fiscal responsibility and forensic auditing will help us to remove or replace programs that are not working. We can't waste taxpayer money in that way. We have to develop and implement programs that help the people of Michigan thrive.
