Positions

Supports limited government and fiscal restraint, emphasizing reducing government waste, cutting unnecessary spending, and pursuing a balanced budget. Advocates pro-growth policies, reduced regulation, and measures like zero-based budgeting and public–private partnerships to limit state spending and encourage private investment.
Healthcare
The candidate states she will work to improve access to healthcare and lower costs but provides no specific policy prescriptions (for example, on Medicaid expansion, Medicare policy, public option, or ACA changes) on her campaign site or in early reporting. Public statements emphasize improving access and cost control without detailed reform proposals.

Public Safety & Guns
The candidate supports safeguarding the Second Amendment and backing local law enforcement, and emphasizes enforcing the law and securing the border as part of public safety priorities.
