Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Affordability
• Education/Parental Control
• Public Safety

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I will work to make Connecticut affordable, safe, and not limit individuals rights. Connecticut is unaffordable and our current legislation is not helping its citizens and families. Continual increases in taxes are a direct reflection in our energy bills, our gas prices and food costs which is the cause of our poor economy and what's driving people to move to other states. I will work to remove our meal tax, highway tax and reduce the diesel tax. I care about our safety unlike our current leaders that support bills like the Police Accountability Bill that does nothing but hurt local and State police forces. And I will fight for individual rights because it's not the government's job to run our day to day lives.
