Representative House District 50

Providing Services with Reasonable Cost should be intrinsic.  There are crucial services that we all depend on our state government to provide, and it's necessary to assess the efficency and practicality of what we can responsibly provide.

Economic Development is essential to Wyoming’s future. Ensuring we are friendly to building businesses locally and attracting those looking to relocate is a great way for us to advance.

Limiting Government is best because it leaves control in local hands. Who is better to make decisions than the people it actually effects. The role of government should be to support and lead, but also provide opportunity for local action

Our Public Lands are something we all treasure. They should remain in public hands and as accessible as possible for all of us to enjoy.

Education is our very best future investment. Parents should be involved and have a say in how their tax dollars are utilized for their student’s education whether public or private.  Further developing and expanding programs at  community colleges and trade schools will also keep some of our brightest young minds here.

Energy has long been a pillar of our great state’s economy and should be a priority in the years ahead. Having worked in oil and gas myself, I know it’s possible to produce energy will being sensitive to our environment.

Property Taxes have jumped sharply in the past few years, which puts significant pressure on home owners. It’s necessary to see legislation passed to curb these dramatic increases.  There should also be disclosure on how those revenues are being used for our communities.

I was honored to be asked to present to the Joint Appropriations Committee about the necessity of a Blind and Deaf Commission.  The day's testimony was met with enthusiasm from the JAC, and I would like to see better services provided to people who are deaf and or blind in Wyoming.

We should all have faith that our election process is transparent and our ballot has been counted.   I feel we should utilize both tally machines and a hand count.  This would give us a level of accountability that should identify error or corruption in either system.
