Top Priorities 1. Term Limits - Two Terms for U.S. Senators/Four Terms for U.S.Representatives 2. Special Education Funding for families that have Children with Disabilities. 3. College Education - Degree must be Worth ?the ink and the paper?. Stop the rising cost of tuition. People should be able to work in their area of expertise and not get second and third jobs to pay student loans. College Tuition should never surpass the cost of owning a home.
