What I Support

I support reducing gross taxation. Idaho taxation is a huge burden on the community. Property tax and the increased cost of home's has made it somewhat impossible for long time Idahoans to purchase a home. Property tax has been and will be a main discussion in the legislature. We need someone who will fight for you all. Property tax should be locked at the time of purchase. Homeowners are just renters from the government in the form of property tax. Grocery tax is another issue. I believe we let people keep the money upfront instead of collecting tax and giving a credit at the end of the year. Fuel is the highest its been in many years. Now that people are moving outside the valley for housing, a reduction in fuel tax is needed so people can keep food on the table. 

​

I support reasonable growth. Growth is currently putting pressure on our infrastructure and school systems. We need to have sustainable growth, aka growth that pays for itself (including school funding). This would also reduce the amount of school levies assessed to your property taxes.

​

I support protecting Idaho's water resources. Idaho resource's and water supply should be guarded by us all. A good many people do not realize we live in the desert. Robust agriculture feeds America. With the current American food suppliers dwindling, its never been more important to protect the water our agriculture community uses than it is today. 

​

I support your right to bear arms. The II amendment is now and as always been one of the most important. We have the right to protect ourselves and family from danger. I will work to strengthen stand your ground laws. I will never vote for RED FLAG laws that take this right away or add restrictions that infringe upon this right. If our firearms are taken, then the criminals and the government will be the only ones with firearms. That in itself should scare you.

 

I support quality education. Education is one of the most important things for the future of Idaho and America. Parents should be able to decide how their kids are educated. Having a curriculum that has all teacher and parent understanding is key. Lack of school choice has left many children behind. Parents have the best understanding of their child's needs. The growing concern of SEL and inappropriate materials in schools will be addressed. Also the desensitization of our children to sexual situations and behavior concerns are valid in our community. As they should be. These things should be left to the family & parents to discuss.
