Civil Rights

Government must never regulate or interfere with religious practices. The First Amendment unequivocally guarantees our freedom to worship and live out our faith in God without government interference. Learn more

The ability to own, manage and protect your property is a fundamental right. Without secure property rights we will not have liberty or a vibrant economy. Learn more

Criminal Justice / Public Safety

As a police officer of many years, I will always defend the men and women in blue. I will always defend law enforcement against the Woke anti-law enforcement culture. Learn more

Education

I believe we can do better. We need increased autonomy at the local level for teachers and parents and the state should only intervene if schools are failing our children. I also believe very strongly in our community college systems. Community colleges bring tremendous value to the local economy and can greatly aid in preparing students for the workforce. Community colleges are showing real, measurable results and are such an effective option for students. We should expand collaborative efforts between our community colleges and our public, private and home schools. Learn more

On matters related to education, my core philosophy is that parents – not government – know what is best for their children. Whether the choice is attending public school, private school or home school, parents should always have the final say in matters related to education. Learn more

Foreign Policy

Israel is the only true democracy in the Middle East and it is America’s best partner in that hostile region. Being a faithful partner and friend to Israel is always in Texas’ best interest. Learn more

Guns

Defend the Second Amendment. Learn more

All law-abiding citizens have the unalienable right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the U.S. And Texas constitutions. I have and will always defend these rights. Learn more

Taxes / Budget

Government should not be allowed to compete with business and we should always trust the people and business over big government. My duty as an elected official is to foster an economic environment that allows the free market to work. Our tax system should be simple and government regulation must be limited, predictable and navigable. Learn more

Texas government should never spend more than it has and growth in state spending should be capped at a factor of population inflation. Learn more
