Issues:
Political influence: Margaret (Maggie) Stewart: chairman, San Bernardino County (CA) Republican Central Committee. Maggie was a tireless volunteer for the party and showed me how much one person can accomplish.
Budget recommendations: Re-define (and return to) core functions of government, and reform business tax structure.
Other concerns: Reducing or eliminating unnecessary or redundant programs or departments, and school finance reform.
Fiscal philosophy: Lower taxes mean higher revenue (tax policy does affect behavior). Don’t spend what you don’t have and don’t rely on inflated estimates of expected revenue.
Background & experience: Many years as a volunteer, talking with people about what they expect from their representatives; 30-plus years as a small business owner, making payrolls — even in “bad times”; and six years as a member of the AZ House.
Prop. 100 sales tax: Oppose. No tax increase during a recessionary period.
Pro-life/pro-choice: [Abortion should be used] only to save the life of the mother.
One last thing: I’m a hard worker and do my best to keep in touch with all residents of LD3 (even those on the AZ strip and in Page).
Campaign Finance: private.
