A great leader is measured by the success of those he leads. As a Christian leader I will always strive to honor Christ in my decisions and consider the impact on all of my constituents. Making life better for the residents of my district will always be my number-one priority. As we face an ever-changing political landscape, we must remain steadfast in the idea that all our freedoms come from our Creator. Our acknowledgment of that fact and wise use of these freedoms will determine our ability to hold onto them.
I would bet that the well-being of your family is the most important value you hold onto. As I make decisions and cast votes in Jefferson City, this idea will hang heavy on my heart and mind. Education, safety, and economic opportunity for the families of this district will always take precedence over party or self advancement. We must put our community first and find ways to help our neighbors rise together to make a difference for all.
What do you want this community to look like in the future? We must not assume that we can stay silent and hope for the best. We must fight the woke liberal ideology and not allow them to control the narrative. Protecting our freedom of speech, property rights, and many other freedoms granted to us in the Constitution cannot be taken for granted. I will always fight for these freedoms and stand up for the rights of the residents of this district.
"We need strong conservative leaders to show up, do the job, and get results for Cass County. We’re going to make sure government stays accountable to our residents, protect our streets for our kids, and ensure our schools keep local control of how they do business."
