Priority Issues:

First and foremost, I would REPRESENT the people in my district. Not special interests.

Second, create jobs and support and/or draft a Job bill that would stimulate businesses to hire and maintain new employees through payroll tax credits or other incentives over the next two years.

Third, propose legislation to end the adding of ?pork? on bills to gain needed votes. Require legislators to discuss the core issues at hand and limit the number of amendments tacked onto one bill.

Lastly, I would cut needless government spending wherever possible. This would set limits on government waste to free up extra taxpayer dollars. I would also propose a balanced budget amendment to prevent budget shortfalls in the future. A review should be made of all state spending to check for duplications and inefficiency.
