I'm a professional truckdriver in the oilfields of Wyoming. I believe more blue collar average Americans need to get involved in our government. We The People have been complacent, voting and hoping for the best. I expect my voters to watch me closely and let me know if they think I'm losing my way...that's the way all elected officials should be treated as public SERVANTS, not rulers!

"My motto is Say what you mean and mean what you say!"

I've been a conservative since 1980 when I voted for Ronald Reagan in my first election. Many times, I've voted for so-called conservatives that wimp out in the face of media, re-election worries, or criticism of any kind. I believe if you have true principles then you should be willing to stick by them and defend them. Otherwise, you are just a conservative as long as it is convenient for you and not when it counts.

I intend to serve for We The People....not we the politicians, not we the government, and not even we the Republican party.
  • I am the true tested by time conservative in my race. I've supported a family, struggled through hard times, and lived my principles and values for decades.
  • I say what I mean and mean what I say. I have a blue collar, calloused hands, and a steep spine for conservatism.
  • If 2 people always agree, 1 isn't thinking for him/herself so disagreements will happen. In that case, I believe every effort should be made to disagree agreeably, which seems to an obsolete idea these days.
Protecting:

2nd amendment rights
life of the unborn
school choice
individual freedom

Reforming:
the Wyoming Property Tax system

Resisting:
Any effort to pass a state income tax
Government overreach
Leftist wokeism

Mandates of any kind
