Get StartedIn Congress, David will be a tireless advocate for our nation’s men and women in uniform, past and present, and their families, all of whom have sacrificed so much for our freedom and security. That means supporting increased funding for our national defense and reforming the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (VA) healthcare system to ensure that each and every person who has served in this country’s military has ready access to the very best medical care we can provide. David will also proudly champion our military installations, such as Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, the U.S. Coast Guard’s Loran Support Unit and Training Center Cape May, as well as the Civil Air Patrol.

David intends to make sure that New Jersey remains the Garden State. From blueberries and cranberries to corn and tomatoes, the South Jersey agricultural industry produces some of the best farm products in the world. But our region’s growers face myriad regulations that reduce their profits while providing minimal public benefit. In Congress, David will push for regulatory reform and fight for trade legislation that benefits, not handicaps, South Jersey’s family farms and agricultural businesses. Learn more
David supports President Trump’s withdrawal from the non-binding Paris climate accord, which put America, its taxpayers, and our economy at a disadvantage with countries around the world. At the same time, David believes more must be done to reverse rising sea levels that potentially threaten South Jersey’s coastal counties and towns, and that we must take a strong stand against drilling off the eastern seaboard, where an oil spill could devastate local economies, especially our recreational and commercial fishing communities.

David will be an ardent defender of the U.S. Constitution, including our Second Amendment rights, and will fight back against liberals who want to further infringe upon our constitutional freedoms. In Congress, David will support conceal-carry and work with President Trump to streamline the background check system to keep guns out of the hands of criminals and the mentally ill, while ensuring that law-abiding citizens can continue to purchase firearms for hunting, sport, collection and self-defense.

Many Democrats running for president, as well as many in Congress, are pushing for unaffordable new healthcare programs that would cost tens of billions of dollars. These programs would force private insurance companies into bankruptcy, destroying millions of jobs in the process. In Congress, David will fight against socialized medicine and work to promote market-based reforms that drive down the cost of medical care and prescription drugs while maintaining the high levels of quality that Americans have come to rely upon for their healthcare.

Our immigration system is clearly broken, there is a crisis on our southern border, and liberal Democrats in Washington and Trenton are recklessly putting the rights of illegal immigrants ahead of both our own citizens and those seeking to become U.S. citizens lawfully. In Congress, David will oppose across-the-board amnesty, seek to ban so-called sanctuary cities and states, support construction of a wall along the border with Mexico, and increase funding for both the hiring of more border agents and the tools they need to secure our borders and keep Americans safe.

As a civil engineer with more than two decades of experience in the construction industry, David knows how to get things built. His former company helped to build schools, hospitals, museums and courthouses. It managed the construction of airports, highways, rail and other infrastructure projects. And it oversaw development of renewable energy projects to help keep our environment as clean as possible. In Congress, he will work with President Trump and be a leader in the effort to pass a comprehensive infrastructure bill that invests in America in order to improve our competitiveness and create millions of new jobs. He will also fight to bring federal transportation dollars back to South Jersey. POST NAVIGATION Safeg. Learn more
A recent government report said that the cost of Social Security will exceed its income in 2020 for the first time since 1982. On top of that, Medicare’s hospital insurance fund is projected to be depleted in less than seven years, likely leading to more financial burdens on our seniors. This is unacceptable. In Congress, David will work with members in both parties to ensure that our government keeps its promises to our seniors and strengthens both Social Security and Medicare now and for the future. The most prosperous country in the world must have a stable and secure safety net for its senior citizens. POST NAVIGATION Support Our Military, Our Veterans & Their Families. Learn more
According to the Congressional Budget Office, the federal government will continue to spend more than it takes in over the next ten years, adding another $9 trillion to the national debt, which already stands at $22 trillion. This is a ticking time bomb for our economy, and career politicians in both parties who continue to ignore this problem are to blame. As your next Congressman, David will use his private-sector experience to streamline the federal bureaucracy and promote spending reforms that rein in the size and cost of government in order to balance the federal budget.

President Trump’s tax cuts were a good start and helped to spur economic growth, but more needs to be done to help South Jersey taxpayers under constant attack by Governor Murphy and Trenton Democrats. In Congress, David will fight to lift the state-and-local-tax (SALT) deduction cap and further cut individual marginal tax rates. He will also press for additional reforms that incentivize entrepreneurship, help small and family-owned businesses grow, and ensure that America’s economy is built for success in the 21st century and beyond.
