I served our country and our great state in the U.S. Army, and Wyoming National Guard, for two decades, with honor, dignity, and effectiveness. The same honor, dignity, and effectiveness I served our great country with, I am committed to serving the voters of House District 47 with.
As a member of the Armed Services of the United States I was trained to fight and never quit; to survive adverse situations and harsh environments; and to selflessly serve, while defending those who cannot defend themselves.
I plan to continue to utilize my warrior spirit, as well as my logistical and leadership training by bringing these skills with me to Cheyenne and the Legislative floor. With your support, I can continue serving the people of Wyoming while representing the voters of House District 47 with a true and proven conservative voice.
- Without the Second Amendment none of our other rights will be ours for very long!
- We must find efficiencies in how we spend NOW! Blind cutting can be just as damaging as blind spending!
- Innocent life WILL be protected from conception!
Second Amendment Protection
Abolishment of Abortion
Private Property Rights
Rural Equality, Equity, and Consideration
Coolidge was one of the most logical, efficient, and effective conservatives in history. Cool-Cal always did more by saying less, but when he did speak, he said things like " It is more important to stop bad legislation, than it is to pass good legislation."
Au H2O!!!
Because it serves as a reminder as to what the next generation may face if we are not successful in saving America during this generation's fight to maintain and strengthen liberty.
"Of the people, for the people, and by the people!"
The bottom line is both governors and state legislators need to respect the voice and the will of the people more. Always remembering that their job as a representative of the people is to enforce the will of the majority while protecting the voice of the minority in every situation.
