Get StartedThis regard for life cannot stop at birth and we must also support and promote traditional family values, getting fathers back in the home and taking responsibility for their families, supporting mothers, and economic policy that doesn’t contradict, inhibit or punish families. Learn more
Life begins at conception. It is a moral imperative as a society that we defend innocent life at all stages, from conception to our final breath. It is also important that we not just rely on policy change that can turn into a battle of political will, but promote life in a manner that will change hearts and minds to the value of life and create fundamental, lasting change. The overturn of Roe v. Wade is only the start, there is much work yet to be done. Learn more
Religious freedom was the primary objective of many of those who settled and founded this nation. The protection of it is guaranteed in the 1st amendment. It is a freedom of religion, not a freedom from religion and is meant to protect the right of the people to worship as they please according to their conscience without government control or interference. Many new policies and laws under the guise of social justice or equity are targeting religious freedom by forcing people to affirm policies that violate their beliefs. I will be an unwavering advocate in defending religious freedom. Learn more
The government doesn’t generate any revenue on its own, everything it has is taken from taxpayers and our representatives have a responsibility to steward that which is collected with transparency and integrity. This lack of stewardship would get those in charge of stewarding those funds kicked out of their position in any other industry or organization but in government they keep getting re-elected. We the people must demand that the government stop using our hard earned money as tools in legislation that helps them get re-elected. Learn more
The federal government has no business in public or private education, it was never meant to, and the bureaucracy of the Department of Education needs to be abolished. Decisions about public education need to be made at the local level with involvement and accountability from parents. Learn more
Arents should have the final say when it comes to the education of their children whether it be public, private or homeschool. I will always fight for and defend a parent’s right to choose how their children will be educated. Contrary to what many leftists seem to think, our children do not belong to the government.

We should be encouraging all forms of domestic energy production that are self-sustaining and logical. Shutting down our energy production and relying on other nations that not only hate us but are causing much more harm to the environment than our American production is irresponsible, dangerous and expensive.

Our founders intended it to be limited and have clear jurisdictional lines. Three separate branches, not equal, but all serving a specific role clearly defined and providing a check of power on the other two. Today’s government operates with a 4th branch, the bureaucracy. It is a clear violation of the Constitution and Congress has delegated its lawmaking power to these unelected “experts” resulting in an explosion of regulations, red tape and governmental control. Learn more
The Constitution is clear. The right to bear arms shall not be infringed. This was not meant by our founders to have weapons to hunt with. It was for the God given right of self defense including from the government should it become tyrannical. Proper use and training is the responsibility of every gun owner and violent crimes committed with a gun, as well as with any weapon, should be prosecuted to the full extent. Learn more
We must secure our borders, northern and southern. It is a matter of national security. Our current administration is violating their oath of office by allowing this invasion of illegal and sometimes dangerous immigrants from all over the world. Their reckless actions are endangering the lives and livelihoods of American citizens which they have a duty to protect. These reckless, politically motivated policies are not humanitarian, rather they are causing harm to millions of men, women and children being exploited in the drug trade and sex trafficking. THIS MUST STOP NOW! Learn more
We must have a system that isn’t prohibitive to those truly seeking and understanding the principles of freedom and opportunity in America but is strict and swift in preventing those who want to take advantage. Learn more
As with many other industries we must eliminate much of the government control and oversight and continue to negotiate better trade agreements (as Trump did in his first term) resulting in lower input costs and better commodity prices. I will be a voice that listens to the concerns of the actual producers fights for them, not the special interests. I also believe that the representative from this district should undoubtedly seek to be on the Ag committee and that is what I will do. Learn more
