Priority Issues:
*Pro-Life -- Supports the sanctity of innocent human life from fertilization until natural death
*Pro-Gun -- Long-time Life Member of the NRA, concealed carry permit holder, and "A" rating from Buckeye Firearms
*Limited Government -- Ohio's governments can't be all things to all people. State government should focus on three broad areas:
*Public Safety -- Police, fire, judicial, incarceration
*Infrastructure -- Roads, bridges, water, sewer
*Education -- Primary and secondary. Supports school choice and home schooling
*Lower Taxes
*Abolish Ohio's marriage penalty
*Reduce Ohio's nine progressive income tax brackets down to one flat tax
*Phase out Ohio's income tax over five to ten years without raising other taxes
