| Collapse all
- Protecting us from government overreach. Government should not be getting into our everyday business. Live and let live is my belief. I will walk the walk and talk the talk. New York state government has gone too far including trying to intervene in the lives of our children that should be left at a parent. The government should not get in the middle of what goes on between the patient and its doctors.
- Economic recovery because people who live in New York state pay the highest taxes in the United States. Important issue is the question of whether you are better off financially today than you were for years ago. The reality is when making decisions. I need to ensure that when you sit at the kitchen table with your family. You could provide for your family as needed.
- Government overspending should have a balance budget every Year. We constantly hear politicians walking around and dropping money in a bucket like they can print it. We need to be financially responsible on the government level. New York state is supposed to have a balanced budget every year. The incumbents have failed to bounce the budget but continue enormous amount of deficit year after year.
