Economy I understand that government enables small businesses to thrive by lowering their taxes and removing obstacles to their growth. In order for jobs to stay here and for new jobs to relocate here, we must ensure that the cost of doing business in Ohio is lower than comparable costs in neighboring states. Education I believe that quality education is the key to future prosperity. I believe the responsibility for education falls on parents as well as your local school districts. I support higher standards in the classroom and requiring parents to participate in the education of their children. Abortion / Contraception I believe that life begins at conception and I have voted to protect the most vulnerable members of our society from birth until natural death. Guns I understand the necessity of the 2nd Amendment, and I will always support the individual right to keep and bear arms. The Bill of Rights, including the 2nd Amendment, are restrictions on Government... not the citizens. I believe the 2nd Amendment has very little to do with hunting and everything to do with protection of self and freedom. Abortion / Contraception Pro-Life.
