Primary Issues

Congress was never meant to become a place where politicians build lifelong careers while the country struggles with the consequences. I support congressional term limits because fresh leadership creates greater accountability, stronger public trust, and a government that stays connected to the people it represents. When elected officials remain in power for too long, they often become more loyal to the system than to the voters who sent them there. Term limits would help break up entrenched power, reduce insider influence, and encourage service-minded leadership. Public office should be a duty, not a permanent position protected by political power and incumbency.

​Working families should not feel like they are being pushed backward every month just to cover basic needs. The rising costs of groceries, fuel, utilities, rent, and everyday essentials have placed enormous pressure on households throughout our district. I believe the government should focus on making life more affordable instead of adding more burdens to families already doing their best to stay afloat. People deserve the opportunity to build stability, save for the future, and raise their families without constant financial stress. I will fight for policies that address the cost of living directly and put the needs of everyday Americans ahead of waste and dysfunction.

Small businesses are the backbone of our communities. They create jobs, support families, and keep local economies alive. Yet too many small business owners are forced to deal with rising costs, unnecessary regulations, and barriers that make growth harder than it should be. I believe government should help create an environment where small businesses can open, grow, hire, and thrive. That means reducing red tape, encouraging investment, and protecting the independence of entrepreneurs who take risks to build something meaningful. When small businesses succeed, communities become stronger, local opportunity expands, and more families can achieve stability through hard work, service, and enterprise.

The people deserve leaders who answer to voters, not to political insiders, powerful donors, or lobbying networks. I am running to support stronger ethics standards, greater transparency, and real accountability for elected officials who misuse public trust. Too many politicians campaign as public servants and then govern like they are untouchable once they reach Washington. That has to end. Government must be open, honest, and answerable to the people it serves. I will support reforms that increase oversight, expose conflicts of interest, and make it clear that no one in office is above scrutiny, responsibility, or consequences for unethical behavior.

​Our veterans and military families have sacrificed time, stability, and comfort in service to this country, and they deserve more than words of appreciation. They deserve real support, real opportunity, and a government that honors its obligations to them. I will fight for better access to quality health care, faster and more reliable benefits, stronger job opportunities, and policies that support military families who face constant moves, financial strain, and long periods apart. We should make the transition to civilian life easier for veterans and provide meaningful support to military households. Supporting those who serve is a national responsibility that must be taken seriously.

America should not be dependent on unstable foreign powers or weak policies that drive up costs for families and businesses here at home. Energy independence means producing reliable and affordable energy in the United States while strengthening national security and protecting long-term economic stability. When energy costs rise, everything becomes more expensive, including food, transportation, manufacturing, and household utilities. I support policies that expand domestic energy production, improve reliability, and reduce our dependence on countries that do not share our interests or values. A stronger energy future will help lower prices, improve resilience, and support working Americans, small businesses, and communities across the nation.
