Gun Rights

I firmly support the Second Amendment, which guarantees the right of the people to keep and bear arms. Law-abiding citizens should have the right to carry a concealed weapon.

Tax Cuts

I believe the only way to shrink the size of our bloated government is to cut taxes and to root out wasteful government spending rather than increasing taxes on working families. I will protect seniors from rising property taxes that could force them from their homes and eliminate taxes on military retiree benefits which were earned while serving our country.

Pro-Life

I am pro-life and dedicated to supporting legislation that protects the sanctity of life. I am also very proud to be endorsed by Missouri Right to Life.

Education

I will fight to ensure that our children get a first class education and that education remains our state’s number one priority. I am also going to make sure our education tax dollars go directly to classrooms rather than Jefferson City bureaucrats. I believe in increasing pay for teachers and make sure that classrooms and schoolhouses are safe places to learn. Last but not lease I want to help control sky-rocketing college tuition and provide more scholarships so that parents can afford to send their children to college.

Family and Health Care

I will work hard to make sure that quality health care is affordable and accessible to ALL Missourians. I am going to seek innovative ways to attract more doctors and nurses to our rural towns. I am going to maintain a health care safety net that provides quality care to our neediest citizens.Protect life at all stages, whether it be the unborn from abortions or seniors from elderly abuse.

Illegal Immigration

When it comes to Illegal Immigration, I believe enough is enough. It is time to stop the illegal immigration that threatens our safety and our jobs. We need to empower law enforcement officers with the tools they need to detect, detain, and deport illegal immigrants, prevent illegal immigrants from taking taxpayer-funded welfare and education benefits, and crack down on businesses that knowingly hire illegal immigrants.
