Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am running for Lieutenant Governor because Alabama deserves a leader who will fight, not just talk. I’m not a career politician. I’m a farmer, a man of faith, and a conservative outsider who has lived the American Dream and wants to protect it for the next generation. Families across our state are being squeezed by rising costs, government overreach, and policies that put bureaucrats ahead of people. I’m running to cut taxes, eliminate unnecessary regulations, and make it easier for hardworking Alabamians to get ahead. I will defend our God-given rights, protect our children from radical agendas, and restore common sense to government. Alabama doesn’t need more politics, it needs leadership that puts our people, our values, and our future first.

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?

Alabama families are being crushed by rising costs and government overreach. I’m running to rebuild our economy by cutting taxes, eliminating burdensome regulations, and unleashing small businesses. It’s time to eliminate the grocery tax, rein in wasteful spending, and put more money back in the pockets of hardworking Alabamians. Government doesn’t create prosperity, our people do.Parents, not government, should decide what’s best for their children. I will fight to restore parental rights, bring full transparency to our schools, and stop radical woke agendas from being pushed in the classroom. Alabama’s schools should educate, not indoctrinate. I’ll stand with families to protect our children, defend our values, and restore common sense.I stand with Donald Trump in the fight to secure our elections and protect our borders. I will push for stronger election integrity laws to ensure every legal vote counts, and only legal votes count. I support cracking down on illegal immigration and removing dangerous criminals from our communities. A nation, and a state, must uphold the rule of law to remain strong.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

I am passionate about policies that protect freedom, strengthen families, and expand opportunity for every Alabamian. That includes cutting taxes and reducing government overreach so families can thrive, defending constitutional rights like the Second Amendment, and restoring parental authority in education. I also care deeply about election integrity, border security, and ensuring our communities are safe. Government should serve the people, not control them, and I will always fight to keep it that way.
