Pets (include names):

Two delightful dogs: Scruffy and Buddy who I rescued and adopted. Scruffy started as a foster dog, but stole my heart. Buddy came from a home where he was caged 90% of the day. Both are true joys!

Priority Issues:

Restoring our Constitutional rights, restoring true security, restoring broad prosperity. Renewable, clean energy; economy; infrastructure and transportation; healthcare; war and veterans; education; election integrity; unconstitutional government actions; election financing; food and product safety....and many others.

Reason for Seeking Public Office:

I firmly believe I can do a better job than my opponent. I'm firmly committed to bringing integrity and rule of law to Congress. I KNOW I will listen to the people and their concerns and that I will do my best to make life better for all. I'm tired of our nation being run by those who refuse to follow the will of the people. I'm tired of it being run by the elite only while ignoring the middle class/average citizen. I know I can do better...and I will when I am elected.
