Reason for Seeking Public Office:

Why am I running for Congress? To change the direction Washington is taking our country so that my four children can be a part of a generation that is left better off than what we received from our parents. I believe the Declaration of Independence has it right when it says our government derives its just power from the consent of the governed. Free people, acting in a free market, are what this country stands for -- it is the American Dream.
