Top 3 Issues
Issue 1
I am passionate about Education. I want to give Idaho students greater educational opportunities. My dream is to fill every Idaho job with Idaho Students, who are have the education, skills and training to succeed.
Issue 2
Agriculture is a major contributor to the economics of Idaho. I want to further international exposure for Idaho’s farm products. The proper management of our surface water and aquifer is crucial.
Issue 3
I believe in limiting the growth of government and only passing laws and creating new regulations when absolutely necessary. I believe the free market thrives when governments reduce regulations and allow entrepreneurs to implement the accepted principles of capitalism.
