Priority Issues:
Colin will deliver our fair share from Albany to lower property taxes, invest in our schools and create jobs in our community.
He will stop Common Core and return control of our children's education to local parents.
In the State Assembly, Colin will lead the fight against systemic welfare abuse and property annexations and defend our natural resources by opposing the KJ pipeline.
Colin believes in term limits and will fight for the accountable, honest government we deserve.
