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?

Local Community Control: State and national policies should not be pushed onto rural Hoosiers without the input of our local communities. Our community leaders, not Indianapolis bureaucrats, should decide what is best for us. I will represent the voice of our communities, not lobbyists or interest groups.Constitutional Rights & Freedom: As a veteran and constitutional conservative, I will always defend the Constitution. I will fight to ensure that every Hoosier has the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.Fiscal Responsibility In the Statehouse: I’ll oppose tax increases and reduce spending by exposing government waste, fraud, and abuse. I’ll work to ensure that Indiana’s economy is in great shape for future generations.
