Issue Position: Limited Government

Issue Position

Government is great at over spending and it is my hope that I can be a voice of reason within the house. I have learned through years of controlling budgets that if you come in under budget that is a good thing. Controlling costs and ending in the black is the best practice and this is no different within our government. I will fight to keep the spending in line so we can work on bringing taxes down for the people of Idaho. It all starts with living within your means.

I believe that state government -- just like at the national level -- has certain expenditures required to function efficiently. We need to keep government spending in line where required to and then let the private sector handle the free market. I also believe in more localized government where people have chance for a greater voice and impact in their own communities.
