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?

Americans are being suppressed by countless levels of government and the American people deserve better from both parties. I believe in the values of life, liberty and freedom. We have a problem in our nation when getting information and clear facts is difficult, and political figures, media and well-funded activist efforts are not operating on common definitions. The erosion of public trust in our institutions is well-earned and a critical issue for the future of our country and younger generations. We need to be very clear in our communication and get to the root issues facing Americans so that we can trust our tax dollars are benefiting our families and communities, not government bloat and foreign nationals who are killing our future.Young Americans are being robbed and the War on Youth must end. The War on Families must end. I believe in a Family First policy and younger and future generations having their true opportunity to experience the splendor of the American Dream. Prosperity is the solvent for the rot we see in society. Too many are in despair, trapped in the hamster wheel of survival, when we should be operating on a system of "thrival." Ultimately, we must put Americans first, not illusionary metrics and programming that harms our people's shot at getting into programs, universities and careers. Right now we are failing, and it doesn't have to be this way. THis is a manufactured and engineered crisis I will fight like hell to end.Rural America has been decimated by an engineered, well-architected decades-long insidious war on industry, values and integrity. The Pacific Northwest is the Saudi Arabia of wood, yet we import from China and Canada. When Timber was thriving, Oregon was virtually Great Depression-proof. We should push for an Oregon REVIVAL and end the leviathan policies that has strangled our state and harmed the country. We should be fixated on solving forest management, wildfire policy and the list goes on to transform our state and nation to one of spirit, fulfillment and opportunity.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Massively spur energy independence and dominance. Stop data centers gobbling up our lands. Punish companies poisoning mothers, causing miscarriages. Cleaner water, air, food. End Pharma State. Repeal/Replace Obamacare. Incentivize family growth. End toxic indoctrination in education. End H-1Bs. Death penalty for rape traffickers and child abusers. Stringent border patrol, support and protect ICE agents, end invasion of narcoterrorists, rapists, killers and traffickers. End fraud. Crackdown on corruption. America First, American leadership. Protect faith and freedom. Cut off gravy train to corrupt NGOs. Protect the Second. Stop foreigners and big corps from jacking up housing. End homeless industrial complex. Investigate subversive entities.
