Get StartedThe first right that is explicitly laid out in the Declaration is the right to life. This is the most fundamental right. There can be no discussion of any other right without correctly defining this one. Science is very straight forward in determining the issue of life. People can debate when an unborn child is viable outside the womb, they can debate when an already born person in a vegetative state is viable as well. What one cannot do is deny the humanity of either. When a woman becomes pregnant, she knows beyond any shadow of a doubt that if carried to term, she will give birth to a child. She won’t birth a cat! Those who advocate for abortion are advocating for the delegitimization of a human life, as are those who advocate for unchecked euthanasia. I fully support the right to life, and oppose legalized abortion, except in the cases of the life-of-the-mother, as state-sanctioned murder. Learn more
One of the major reasons the U.S. economy has begun to kick into high gear is the voluminous and onerous regulations that the Trump administration has begun to rollback. This is a blessing for small businesses and consumers alike. The impact of getting rid of needless regulatory burdens cannot be overemphasized in growing the economy. Along with this is the need for Congress to work on things such as the standardization of the retention process for America’s smallest businesses, which would save them combined millions of dollars and countless hours in compliance time.

A robust economy is essential to maintain a good standard of living and is a must for achieving solutions and protections for those who are working, retirees, and future generations; it will also help to arrive at sustainable and moral solutions to things like the healthcare needs of the citizenry. Unfortunately, the best ideas for obtaining strong economies involves government relinquishing control mechanisms and allowing more freedom in the economic space. There is a place for government, but when it implements tax and regulation policies that are too onerous, or actively participates in picking winners and loser by subsidizing certain industries, this creates far more problems than the positive effects intended to be produced.

The right to keep and bear arms, as codified in our Constitution, is a fundamental right to personal security. This includes not only the right to defend oneself from individuals who would seek to do them harm, but also from the government. It is a natural right and would exist even if we come to a point where its constitutional protections are removed. Of all the rights, it is the one that helps ensure all the rest. As such, it is not to be infringed. I believe this, and will defend it. Learn more
Repeal Obamacare – This must happen. All the rules and regulations connected to this are stifling any opportunity to bring competition and innovation into the healthcare marketplace, along with further eroding the doctor/patient relationship. This is a design feature not a flaw. Learn more
