Get StartedAbortion is one of the most divisive issues in our country today, but no matter what position I am in, I will always fight to protect the rights of both the born and unborn. Although, I strongly disagree with the radical issues embedded within proposition 3, due to one of our granddaughters being a micro-preemie weighing in at 1.4 pounds and knowing full well that she was a living, breathing human being, it is now embedded in our state constitution. This is why we must use other resources to help women and ensure that they feel they have a choice to choose life as an alternative. Each side deserves to have their opinion heard and respected; however; fear, threats, and intimidation have no place in our society. Learn more

As a former member of the military, I understand the importance of keeping law and order. We see daily the failed policies of defunding the police and no cash bail. These failed policies are killing and putting law-abiding citizens in danger daily, and yet the Democrats want to double down on these policies, that is the definition of insanity. We need law enforcement that is from the community, for the community, and backed by the community. I support law enforcement and will be their ally in Lansing. This means working with local and state law enforcement and members of the justice system when drafting legislation to ensure that those who commit crimes are held accountable for their actions and the victim’s rights are put first, especially our children and the vile repugnant human traffickers that victimize countless children.

We also must ensure that parents have the say regarding their children’s education, to include school choice with vouchers. If it’s good enough for our elected officials to send their children to schools of their choice, shouldn’t parents have the same right regardless of their income status? Whether it be public, homeschool, or private schools, all parents should have a say and choice along with the resources to ensure their children get the best education there is. Learn more
All our children deserve the same education regardless of income, status, color, or religion. Giving them a level playing field should be all our goals, teaching them to inspire to reach greatness and see their possibilities as endless instead of teaching them that one is better than the other is disingenuous and outright lies. Learn more
We also need to ensure that our schools are just as safe and secure as all our State and Federal buildings and elected officials, after all our children are the most precious commodity we have and should be treated as such. Our teachers must also have the resources to produce an efficient learning environment without wondering whether they can afford classroom supplies. Teachers, parents, and children need to work together in synergy to produce the best result for our community, country, and economy; our children deserve no better. Learn more
For far too long there has been a subversive attempt to distort history and the facts of this nation, we need to get back to the core tenets of education along with civics that teach our children to be responsible citizens and the positive influence America has had on the world and to be proud of those achievements. Teaching our children all the facts of our history is important to ensure we do not make the same mistakes we have made in the past, erasing, lying, and distorting those facts does a disservice to those who fought, died, and sacrificed to change and improve this nation. Being proud of this nation should be encouraged by showing how this nation has had positive impacts throughout the world, not the false narratives that are being pushed on our children by those who lie and distort those facts. We are not a perfect nation, but we are far better than most of the world and we are fortunate to be Americans. Learn more

We have been entrusted with a beautiful planet by our creator, Michigan is known for its natural beauty, we must always strive to protect it. We can have both economic prosperity and a clean environment to leave for our children and grandchildren. We can do all of the above, thinking that we can do one or the other is so disingenuous. We rely on fossil fuels for almost all products we use on a daily basis, by using technology and the resources provided by mother earth we can build a better tomorrow without hurting the economy or those who cannot afford the high costs of newer technology today. This means supporting real common-sense solutions and ideas, like the Great Lakes Tunnel Project and protecting jobs that help hard working Americans feed their families, all the while investing in newer abilities to sustain us for the foreseeable future. We need to always make sure our water and air is clean, our parks have enough funding, and our farms and wildlife are abundant and prospering for generations to come. Learn more

Our individual liberties and freedoms are being eroded daily by bureaucrats and elected officials who ignore their constituents and oaths of office. These individuals hide behind walls and anonymity, they write and pass laws that impact citizens negatively and then lie about the facts. These same individuals ignore the very laws they write and think they are above the average American, we see it daily with the double standard and hypocrisy. They are too afraid to talk face to face with its citizens and too often the media distorts the facts and truths with lies and innuendos.

We do not need government, elected officials, and bureaucrats telling us how we can and cannot live our lives. Learn more
