Strong Military & National Security

Candidate position

As a veteran I believe that investment in our nation’s military is critical to defending our nation and maintaining our sacred freedoms. We need to promote patriotism, service, and courage in our next generation to maintain the strongest armed forces in the world. As the pillar of freedom and democracy across the world, we must boldly stand up to terrorists, and continue our support for Israel and the Jewish people here in the United States and abroad.

Tax Cuts & Government Accountability

We need to root out waste, fraud and abuse in government, which has become rampant, while holding our government responsible for managing our tax dollars. I support every effort to make our government more efficient, while reducing taxes, so we can keep more of our hard-earned money.
