I am a small-government conservative and I believe most political issues should be decided at the local level rather than mandated by the state. Every time a new agency is created or a new regulation is passed, we lose a bit of our freedom. As your representative, I will be careful to limit the size of government so that we remain as free as possible. I believe our State Government should focus its attention on these objectives:
Funding education
Maintaining and improving our infrastructure
Ensuring a level playing field for all businesses
Enforcing contracts through the court system
Protecting the public through law enforcement
I will seek to combine overlapping agencies and eliminate job-killing regulations that require hiring more state employees to enforce.
