Collapse all
|Over the years I have seen the political climate in this country shift and many people in office who swore to uphold the constitution are blatantly disregarding it. I am tired of complaining about being taken advantage of by our elected officials and have decided to do something about it. I am running for office to clean up Tallahassee. Someone needs to hold those who swore the oath of office accountable! We will together. Let us send the good 'ole boys a message.
We will not stand for our rights being stripped away any longer. Send me to Tallahassee to bring the constitution back and hold these so called "representatives" feet to the fire. I look forward to serving you and protecting our god given rights as written in the constitution.- Education Reform
- 2nd Amendment Preservation
- Eliminate Unconstitutional laws and regulations
Encourage trade school, teach basic life skills, and bring gun safety classes back to high school.
Prison Reform
Prisons need to rehabilitate and not make people worse. Over 20% of inmates in prison are criminal aliens. This is a huge tax burden on the taxpayers in Florida, they must be transferred to ICE and deported. We need to make sure felons can obtain work after finishing their sentence. We should encourage them to pursue a trade education or college education.
2nd Amendment Preservation
Strike down the Unconstitutional Red Flag Law and any other unconstitutional form of gun regulation. Expand gun rights and ownership. Establish constitutional carry and protect Florida from federal gun laws.
Transparency and Exposing Corruption
I believe in an open door policy. You should be able to contact your representative whenever and they should keep the public advised on what they are doing. Too many politicians get into office and then disappear from public eye. No more for profit politics. When our representatives vote, they need to do so in a way which represents the sentiment of the people who elected him, not for their pocket books.
Eliminate Unconstitutional laws and regulations
