Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate identifies as a fiscal conservative who favors cutting waste, increasing transparency and accountability in government spending, and returning federal tax dollars to the district to reduce local tax burdens. His campaign platform calls for ending the estate tax for families, prioritizing small businesses and farmers, and practicing “true fiscal responsibility” while investing in infrastructure and job-creating industries. He emphasizes targeting wasteful spending rather than proposing large tax increases or wealth-redistribution measures.
Climate & Energy
Supports expanding clean energy, with a strong emphasis on nuclear power (including modular reactors) as a low‑carbon source that creates union jobs; favors sustainable, evidence‑based energy solutions and permitting reform to enable environmental sustainability while reducing regulatory red tape.
