Top Issues

Criminal Justice / Public Safety Property owners should not worry about someone “taking over” their personal property. America is great because of the ability to own property. As your next Senator I will address this issue at the federal level and work with state legislators to ensure it is addressed at the state and local level. Abortion / Contraception I am Pro-Life and believe life begins at conception. Healthcare Health insurance premiums and medical expenses should be tax free regardless if the payer is an employer or an individual. This can be a first step in breaking the unnecessary bond of healthcare to employment. This could be implemented by offering unrestricted tax deductions or penalty fee payment from IRAs and 401-Ks. Conversely, health savings accounts are already able to roll into Roth IRAs after retirement. Healthcare In order to facilitate the implementation of the Trump 2019 executive order to publish prices, health providers should be required to choose one real price and eliminate negotiated networks. All healthcare is delivered retail. Quantity discounts are inappropriate for the nature of delivery of healthcare. Having a single price for each product or service per provider will allow open competition and reduce consumer confusion or billing mistrust. Along with consumer access to real prices, publishing should include satisfaction ratings through anonymous reviews collected at billing remittance (just like Amazon). Education Protecting our kids from woke ideology is one of my top priorities. I will fight to ensure PARENTS have control of their children’s future. I will advocate for bills and policies that will strengthen school choice in our country! Immigration Allowing uncontrolled illegal immigrants to pour into our country is crippling our national security, enriching human traffickers and drug cartels. I am committed to keep Arizona and America safe by securing our borders and enforcing our immigration laws. Guns Our right to bear arms is under assault like never before. Protecting this right is one force that is keeping Socialists and others from the dismantling of our rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will always support law enforcement officers and first responders who work diligently to keep our neighborhoods safe. I support legislation to maintain all Arizona’s police departments funding and work to maintain stability in our communities.
