Get StartedI believe strongly in the institution of policing. Strong, professional law enforcement agencies make for safe communities. I believe in the "weed and seed" method of policing. This includes using proactive policing to get offenders off the street and "reseeding" the community with community programs. I will always vote to fund law enforcement agencies and for the JAG program; which provides ballistic vests to law enforcement agencies facing budgetary constraints. Learn more
Many of these "reforms" have been pushed by people in power who want to see their radical dreams of the abolishment of the criminal justice system realized. It's no coincidence violent crime is soaring nationwide. I will vote to withhold federal funding to municipalities who employ these radical strategies. Learn more
I know there are cartel operatives operating in Eastern North Carolina. I have been part of investigations and made arrests of subjects violating drug laws tied to and working for drug cartels. I will vote to finish the wall and upgrade the existing barrier in areas it needs it. I will also vote to increase patrols and reconnaissance of areas where a wall cannot be built. Learn more
Energy independence is a national security and economical issue. The United States of America was a net exporter of energy in 2019. With war and instability raging in Eastern Europe, we can no longer afford to be beholden to foreign nations for our oil. I will vote to reinstate the leases canceled by the Biden Administration for oil and gas drilling locations and to restart the Keystone XL pipeline. Our families and their pocketbooks cannot afford to be held hostage by the increasing cost of gasoline. Learn more
I will vote to eliminate federal funding for countries such as Iran that take our money and use it to fund terrorism and kill Americans. Learn more
I believe the "right of the people to keep and bear arms shall NOT be infringed". Learn more
We must teach the federal government the value of a dollar. If elected, I will fight to lower taxes and cut regulations to promote the return of manufacturing back to District 1. A country that cannot manufacture cannot innovate. I will also fight to curb government spending and prioritize spending on items most important to the safety and security of America. Learn more
I believe our hard earned tax money is not a spending spree for the government. I believe spending should be prioritized and if elected, I will vote to lower taxes for the middle class. I will vote to decrease the capital gains tax; which is a tax on creation, innovation, and success. I will also vote to expand opportunity zones, which helps redevelop our decaying cities and towns while giving everyone an opportunity to create wealth. Learn more
