Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

The Indiana General Assembly needs to focus on our health, housing, utility and education issues. We spend too much time in angry debates generated in Washington D.C. As a result we have poor roads, poor health, underfunded public schools and rising utility bills.Indiana needs to take a hard look at all aspects of the growth of data centers. I got the legislatures to agree to an in-depth study due November 1, 2026. I need everyone’s input on this.I focus on our Indiana tax system. We need to stop just tinkering with it and restore it to a solid system trusted by the people.
