| Collapse all
- It's time we restore the voice and values of Nevadans to state government. Too many of our representatives are bought out by special interest and/or have conflicts of interests. We need legislators who will be courageous and stand up for the people.
- We must work together to improve the lives of all Nevadans with common sense solutions. Active involvement during the legislative session opened my eyes to a culture of corruption. Many or our representatives showed arrogance and blatant disregard for the welfare of Nevadans.
- Strong communities must be safe and must provide children with a good education equipping them to contribute to society. We must lock up criminals and reverse soft on crime policies and offer universal school choice to provide children the best education possible based on their learning needs. Children are the future.

The most impactful as a participant was watching as the Vietman war as it ended. lived outside of Eglin AFB, in the FL panhandle. When the war ended a tent camp was established on the Eglin range for the refugees. Students could go meet and mingle with the Vietnamese students. In fact, we could check them out and take them to our homes. It was horrific to hear them share about life in a war zone, never having a good night's sleep, without hearing bombs. These students were so appreciative of the support of America, desired to assimilate and they became top academic students.
Government is responsible to the people.
