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?

AFFORDABILITY CRISIS - PUTTING FAMILIES FIRST

As an entrepreneur and small business owner, I know firsthand how government policies affect families and job creators. If I were starting the successful business I built years ago, today’s taxes, red tape, and regulatory burdens would make success nearly impossible.

Priorities:

Defend TABOR and voter-approved limits

Stop new taxes, hidden fees, and unfunded mandates

Reduce regulations that increase housing and business costs

Lower utility and energy bills for families and job creators

We must audit all government programs to identify waste, fraud, and abuse. Anyone collecting taxpayer money fraudulently should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.DEFENDING THE 2ND AMENDMENT & OUR CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS

As the owner of one of Colorado’s largest family-owned firearms businesses, and a Second Amendment activist, I believe any restriction on the right to keep and bear arms is a constitutional infringement.

Priorities:

Protect the Second Amendment and self-defense rights

Oppose any bans or restrictions on lawful owners

Focus enforcement on criminals, not responsible citizens

Fight at the Capitol to stop infringements on your rightsPUBLIC SAFETY, SCHOOL SECURITY AND PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN, NO BOYS IN GIRLS SPORTS

Nothing matters more than the safety of our communities and our children. As a father, business owner, and friend to sheriffs statewide, I stand with law enforcement, families, and children.

Priorities:

Support sheriffs, police, and first responders

Strengthen school security and emergency preparedness

Ensure consequences for violent and repeat offenders

Protect victims’ rights and defend our children from radical policies

PARENTAL RIGHTS & EDUCATION

Parents — not politicians — should guide their children’s education and values. As a father of two with a third on the way, I know the importance of family-led decision-making.
