Priority Issues:
QUALITY HEALTHCARE
We need to fix MNsure with creative solutions that harness the power of the free-market to drive down cost and increase coverage.
EFFICIENT & EFFECTIVE GOVERNMENT
I will put a stop to wasteful spending like the new 90 million dollar Senate Office Building. I'll instead prioritize growing jobs and improving our roads and bridges.
QUALITY EDUCATION
Minnesota can provide a world-class education for every child by empowering parents and ensuring there's a great teacher in every classroom.
