Serving as your 4th District state representative is one of the greatest and most humbling honors of my life.

As the Legislature moves to address a budget shortfall, it is absolutely imperative that we forge a responsible plan that prioritizes spending and doesn’t raise taxes. The long-term solution to our state’s budget crisis is the retention and creation of jobs in the private sector.

Other policy areas on which I am focusing include limiting government, protecting access to health care, and providing our young people with top-caliber educational opportunities. Transportation issues and addressing the needs of veterans and their families also figure prominently among my priorities.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my Web site. I encourage you to contact me with questions or comments about the site, and the issues that we’re dealing with this year.
