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?

We need to have a better balance of Democrats and Republicans in the House and Senate. We also need to find a way to engage the unenrolled. Maine Education is near the bottom of the entire nation. Social agendas, abandoning curriculum puts our students at an extreme disadvantage. Schools are top heavy with Administration while laying off teachers and Ed Techs. Teachers salaries should benefit as a result.Restore the cap on municipality taxes to 2% annually. The Democrat Adminstration has removed this cap resulting in a 67% increase in assessed values and increased property taxes. This is forcing seniors and legacy resident to move out of state.Elected officials need to be reminded they are in Augusta to represent their constituents, not their pet programs and far left progressive agendas. The focus should be on Mainers first not illegal immigrants. I have served two terms on the Joint Standing Committee on Taxation and the Commission to Prevent Mortgage and Deed Fraud.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Taxes, preventing Mainecare fraud, putting Mainers first. Sustainable budgeting. Adhering to citizen's rights established in the Constitution.
