My profound conviction is that every life is a blessing and needs our protection. Learn more
As a retired Naval Officer, I believe that it is our country’s duty to stand in support of our Veterans. I personally understand the difficulties in navigating the Veteran’s Affairs bureaucracy and the challenge of re-entering society after military service.

Legal immigrants bring a wealth of ideas and value to our country. Their path to citizenship exists today. If the immigration laws that guide this path to citizenship are inefficient or ineffective, then Congress must do its job to address and enact the necessary laws, not ignore them. I served in Iraq where we secured the borders of a foreign nation, and yet Congress is unable to secure our own!. Learn more
America’s national debt has surpassed $22 trillion. Our country can no longer afford to continue raising the debt ceiling in order to solve our challenges. We must act responsibly to ensure our children and grandchildren do not inherit the responsibility of paying for our mistakes. Learn more
