Campaign themes

2014

Education

Thousands of Hoosier children are under-served in our current education system, and that is unacceptable to me. My focus is to work with parents, educators, and administrators to address the problems we face in our public schools and come up with effective, fiscally responsible solutions.

Economy
Small businesses are the backbone of the American economy, and Indiana is no different. I will work to provide small businesses with the resources they need to expand and grow. This will lead to higher-wage job creation, not only in District 91, but all across the state.

Accountability
The people of Indiana need lawmakers who are held accountable for their legislation and votes in the Statehouse. I will make myself accessible and in-tune with the needs of those in my District and with Hoosiers throughout the state.

Infrastructure
Indiana has billions of dollars of necessary repairs for roads, dams, bridges, and waste facilities. These repairs cost Hoosiers over a billion dollars a year due to damages and accidents. Our infrastructure is the backbone to a successful economy. Fully funding public services ensures these issues are repaired which serves to strengthen Indiana for the future.[2][3]
