My Priorities

Ensuring a quality judiciary

One of the most important functions of an Executive Councilor is to confirm gubernatorial appointments to the Courts. Making sure judges respect our 2nd Amendment right is a top priority. I will only vote to confirm strict constructionist judges who respect the original intent of the Constitution. Legislating from the bench dilutes the authority of those you elected to represent you in the Legislature thereby making government less accountable to you.

Transparency and Spending

I believe that all contracts that come before the council should be honest, open and subject to a competitive bid. I will strongly oppose any toll or fee increases in any instance the Council has authority to rule. A competitive economy starts with low taxes and fees and it is the Executive Council's duty to ensure the utmost fiscal prudence.

Defending Life

Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness are the ideals our nation were founded upon. There can be no Liberty without life. I will Oppose ANY State contract that funds Planned Parenthood without exception.

Education

We need a vibrant and innovative State Department of Education that meets the needs of today's students. I will vote to confirm members of both the Department and State Board of Education who respect the rights of home school families, and are willing to make school choice more accessible for families and students who need it most. One size fits all solutions are a disservice to those who learn differently.
