Issue Position: Limited Government

Issue Position

Government solutions to everyday problems are not "free," efficient, or effective. Every Government "solution" comes with a price tag and requires a sacrifice of some of your individual freedom. Our Constitution is a limiting document. That means it guarantees a small, limited Federal government. Washington, D.C. is expanding out of control and would be unrecognizable to our Founding Fathers.

Our political "leadership" has ignored the Constitution and the clear will of the American people. Congress stuffs bills with earmarks, riders, and even bribes. Legislators confiscate your hard-earned tax dollars and bloat bills to over 2000 pages of waste, corruption, and deception. Even worse, this is done with deficit spending-borrowed money from our children's generation.

My Solution:
As your Congressman, I pledge moral clarity and real commitment to the limited government promised to you by our Constitution. I will vote "No" on any bill that is not Constitutionally justified, that contains earmarks or unrelated "riders," or requires deficit spending, regardless of the party who initiates or supports the bill. I will make it my mission to scrub our legislation and bring clean bills up for honest votes.
