| Collapse all
I grew up in Greensburg, Kansas, a town of 1,500 people. My single mother raised me and I took responsibility for myself at 16. I joined the Navy because I wanted to serve something bigger than myself. I became a Combat Search and Rescue swimmer, led 250 sailors, managed a $3.2 billion budget and made Senior Chief because I delivered results, even when command didn't like me challenging bad decisions.
I'm running because I haven't fulfilled my oath yet. Arkansas is called the Natural State, we're beautiful. But when I see our state falling apart, education collapsing from TOP 5 to 49th, workers paid less than almost anywhere in America, Arkansas ranked 48th for happiness out of 50 states, I KNOW the job isn't done.
Every American deserves the freedom to pursue their own happiness and build their own version of the American Dream. That's what I fought for. That's what I'm still fighting for.- Workers Deserve Fair Wages ~ Your Neighbor's Success IS Your Success. I didn't come from money. I worked my way up from a single-parent household to Navy Senior Chief. Arkansas workers rank 47th out of 50 for wages, only 3 states pay less. Companies are profitable while workers struggle to pay bills. That's a choice politicians made. When workers make good money, they spend it locally, at shops, restaurants, on additions and new homes. That's how communities thrive. I'll fight for fair wages, strong public schools and working families who deserve a fair shot, not politicians who protect corporate profits while families struggle.
- Individual Freedom ~ It’s Not Just One Issue. It’s THE Issue I’m a strict Constitutionalist. I carried a pocket Constitution in uniform for 24 yrs because I believe in protecting the rights of every American. When the Governor tries to limit your right to petition government and when a constitutional amendment brought by the people to stop the billion-dollar prison is kicked off the ballot that’s government overreach. Especially after voters rejected it five times. Your voice matters. Every person deserves control over their life, your 2nd and 4th Amendment rights, privacy, medical decisions and freedom from interference. Without self-autonomy, nothing else matters. That’s why individual liberty isn’t just one issue. It’s THE issue.
- Arkansas Deserves Leadership That Actually Listens to Working People. When Republicans took over in 2012, Arkansas ranked in the top five for education. Today, we’re near the bottom in funding. Workers rank 47th in wages. We’re 48th in happiness. Families are falling behind in one of the most beautiful states in America. Instead of investing in people, politicians are building a billion-dollar prison. That tells you exactly who they’re fighting for—and it’s not you. That’s not leadership. That’s neglect. I’m running to stand up for working families, hold politicians accountable, and return power to the people where it belongs.
