Jim believes the government has a role to play in creating jobs. That role is to create laws and policies that encourage economic growth in our communities and our state. That does not mean handing out corporate welfare, it means creating a playing field and an environment where companies can be successful and provide good paying jobs.

Pro-Family Values

Jim is a strong supporter of family values. He believes parents, not the government, should play the dominant role in the education and upbringing of their children. Honesty, integrity, and doing the right thing even when no one is looking are values Jim and his family live by.

“We the People” must be in charge of our own government

Jim wants to represent the people of Montcalm and Gratiot counties to the best of his ability. This means being accessible and listening to their ideas and concerns. New technology has made it easier than ever for people to connect with their elected leaders. While they may not always agree on every issue, Jim wants the 70th District to know he is listening.[5]
