Emphasizes using tax and budget changes to attract and retain businesses and to ensure taxpayer dollars are spent efficiently.

Immigration & Border
The candidate supports strengthening and fortifying the U.S.–Mexico border, including backing border-wall infrastructure and demanding law-and-order approaches to border security. Positions emphasize stronger border controls and enforcement-focused measures rather than expanded legal pathways or asylum protections.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate has identified as pro‑life and expressed support for the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade; public debate remarks indicate alignment with restricting abortion access. There is no clear detailed public statement from his campaign site specifying exact exceptions or the breadth of restrictions he supports.
Climate & Energy
Supports investments in clean-energy infrastructure and a transition toward a clean energy economy while emphasizing infrastructure priorities such as EV charging networks and water security projects. Policy language focuses on building out clean-energy and infrastructure capacity rather than endorsing aggressive fossil-fuel phase-outs or Green New Deal–style provisions.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports strengthening law enforcement (increasing staffing and training), tougher local public‑safety measures such as making panhandling illegal, and creating school safety task forces; pledges to uphold the Second Amendment.
