Top Issues

Immigration But today, illegal immigration is eroding those principles—creating a shadow workforce that undercuts American jobs, while fueling human and drug trafficking that is destroying lives across our nation. As an Independent Representative, I won’t play partisan games. I will bring people together to secure our borders, stop the exploitation, and finally fix this broken immigration system—for the safety and prosperity of every American. Healthcare I will fight to: Ban reckless private equity takeovers that put patients at risk. End elder abuse by holding nursing homes and inspection agencies accountable. Healthcare As your representative, I will oppose granting large pharmaceutical companies unrestricted financial support. Government Reform It’s long past time we stop big money manipulators from buying our elections. To move forward, we must return to the founding principles that form the backbone of our Republic. The era of electioneering must end. Protecting the integrity of our elections is essential to preserving a free nation. Election fraud must carry serious consequences. Environment / Energy Rural communities must be empowered by ensuring their electric cooperatives are run ethically and democratically, giving members the ability to leverage bulk buying power and secure real savings from open market access. Environment / Energy Strengthen our power grid by breaking up corrupt monopolies and opening energy to true free-market competition. This will put an end to price-fixing schemes and industry corruption.
