Political influence: My parents have had the greatest influence on my political development. They helped instill in me a duty to God, country, the Constitution and freedom.

Job creation measures: Reduce regulation and lower the overall tax burden. Businesses don’t need new programs. They need the government to get out of their way.

Top Issues: Same as previous answer.

Prop 100 sales tax extension: I oppose it. Taxes are not temporary when they are extended.

Illegal immigration: I believe the answer is to have a tall fence and a wide gate. Right now, we have a low fence and a narrow gate. We need to secure the border and improve the immigration process. Since this is primarily the responsibility of the federal government, we need to work closely with our congressmen. We also need to make sure we do what is necessary to protect the safety of the citizens of Arizona.

One last thing: I believe it is time for a new generation of leaders who will put love of country before love of office. Please watch my YouTube video to hear why I am running and what I will do.
