I Will Fight for Smaller Government, Lower Taxes

Historically, more government creates more problems than it solves. Every dollar government takes starves the creation of wealth in our economy. I will consistently fight for smaller government and lower taxes.

I Will Fight to Create More Family-Wage Jobs

A revitalized economy featuring lower taxes and less government intrusiveness will result in economic expansion and more family-wage jobs. It is time for Oregon to attract investment and wealth instead of scaring it away.

I Will Fight to Reign In Homelessness

Homelessness is out of control. Like you, I have compassion for people struggling to survive. Still, we tend to get more of anything we subsidize including homelessness. It’s time to shut down homeless camps and tent communities on health grounds while working with our churches, communities, and networks of shelters and services to make alternatives of homelessness safer and more accessible.

I Will Fight for Public Safety and Against Theft

Although police must accountably operate within the law observing the rights of citizens, it is time to stop demonizing them. Our police and first responders are heroes. We need to let them know that we have their backs and will have everything they need to do their jobs. A central role of government, after all, is to protect our lives and our property.
