  • Our Constitution is at Risk! A GOP super-majority will undoubtedly begin chopping up the Montana Constitution in their own image.
  • More often than not, extreme solutions do as much damage as doing nothing at all. Find those common values and goals across party lines and get there together!
  • Policy makers often step over dimes to pick up nickles. We need vision in Helena... we need thorough and long-term strategies that help ALL Montanas, and not just a select few.
1. Mental Health Awareness and the laws and funding to get the job done.

Consider the wide array of issues we face even in our local communities, from theft, violent/sexual abuse, homelessness, joblessness, drug addiction, the list goes on. Factor in the horrific stories of gun violence that we hear and see about almost like clockwork. Focus on the cause...
The mental well-being of our citizens.
The result of undiagnosed or ignored mental health issues can clearly be seen on the evening news, police blotters, and the obituaries.
We can do better to help each other combat this silent killer.

2. The rights of indigenous peoples is incredibly important to me. I have many indigenous friends, and have been accepted into a few circles that I'm extremely proud to be a part of. I will adamantly stand by the rights of indigenous people in both those inherent rights that no one can give and take away, as well as all those rights afforded under the law. I understand the strain that new programs can have on an educational system, but we, as montanans, As Americans, without a doubt, owe one thing to the indigenous culture here and that is the ability to retain their own native cultural and identity, Ask the question, 'what does it mean to be an indigenous person in this country?'

And give them find the tools necessary to do so.
I believe a Representative must walk an issue through three criteria before supporting it.

1. Is it Constitutional? (Is this law legal?)
2. Would my Constituents Support It? (Am I representing the 10,000 people in HD22?-Even those who did not vote me for me?)

3. Does my Conscience Approve? (Can I sleep at night having voted for or against something?)
At the age of 10 I began washing commercial food trucks every other weekend. By the time I was 15 I had saved enough to purchase and partially restore my first car, a 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe.
Demon Haunted World by Carl Sagan. It helped me to stop being afraid of childish things, including the fear of math and science. it also helped me to develop a "Bologna Detector"... a tool very helpful when politics are near.
It would always be beneficial to have such experiences, at the very least, to help aid one in taking the few few steps into such a role.
Absolutely. Representation is just that, learning to come together and appreciate where each other is coming from and help to make the whole better of as a result.
I would enjoy being part of the Fish and Game Committee. As a lifelong hunter and fisherman it would do me great honor to be a part of this process at the state level.
