I’m running because I want a government that empowers you and me. A government that supports and doesn’t hinder. I want a government that allows the free market economy to flourish. I’m running because I don’t want to pay higher taxes and I don’t want the government interfering in my life as both a businessman and a parent… and I know YOU don’t want that either.

I’m running to strengthen an education system where our children can thrive. I’m running because we need common sense solutions to our poor air quality. I’m running because I want to maintain and enhance our amazing quality of life!

My Democratic opponent has said she will raise taxes. I think we are taxed enough as it is, and I believe we can make significant improvements to our education system and our air quality without raising our taxes, by simply being smarter about managing the money we already have.
