Issue Position: Support Law Enforcement and Safety Services

Issue Position

Now, more than ever, our men and women of uniform need support. While other choose to attack these men and women that keep my family, friends and neighbors safe, I choose to make sure that they have the tools and support needed to perform their job to the best of their ability. From the State Highway Patrol all the way to the smallest of municipal police, fire and rescue, if I am elected, these men and women will have an ally and advocate in the NC Senate.

As a county commissioner, I supported adding an Assistant District Attorney so that our court system would have the ability to process cases faster and more efficiently, which in return has saved the county millions.

The term that is kicked around these days is "opioid crisis". Folks, this crisis is real and in your very own neighborhoods and schools. NO school is immune to this very deadly and dangerous drug. Every school in Union County is affected by this and has heroin readily available. We must educate our youth and work to remove this immediately. I fully support our local law enforcement's efforts to educate and rid our schools of opioids.
