| Collapse all
- A Representative FOR the PEOPLE. Stephen believes that an elected official should represent the MAJORITY of their constituents NOT personal beliefs while still abiding by the Oath of Office & the Constitutions of Indiana & the United States.
- Stopping Government Overreach & Ending the State of Emergency - No mask mandates & No forced vaccines. If you decide that it is best based on conversations with your doctor & through research to wear a mask and/or get a vaccination, that should be a personal decision, not a governmental decision.
- Fighting Unjust Taxes like the Wheel Tax is something that Stephen believes is a key issue. Our roads have not been kept up and it shows by the growing number of potholes & in the winter, the snow & ice covered roads. These are
Stephen is also passionate about stopping the government overreach and state of emergency that we've been in since March 6, 2020. We should NOT be in a State of Emergency for more than 30 days. The Governor's powers to keep this emergency going are costing hardworking hoosiers their jobs & businesses. What Right does the Governor or Government have to tell me that you are or aren't an essential business or employee because the fact is EVERY SINGLE HOOSIER IS ESSENTIAL! The government should NOT be mandating we take this vaccine or that vaccine because that is a choice that should be reached between Hoosiers and their doctors.
The Wheel Tax is something that we pay to keep our roads in good order but potholes are everywhere! Let's repeal it!
Finally, Stephen is a strong supporter of personal property rights. What does that mean to him? It means that the City, County, State, or Federal Government SHOULDN'T be telling you what you can or can't do on your property. Do you want to exercise your First Amendment Right to express yourselves through signs? Great! Do you want to build a fence? Great! It is YOUR property that YOU paid for and pay property taxes on.
"...I think our country's been had
And old Ted Nugent can't do it alone
We been trying to tell you now it might be too late
