Statement: “I never planned on running for elected office. In fact, I moved to Idaho (from Indiana) several years ago simply because I wanted a safe place to raise a family. But after watching the left wing corporate attacks on children’s innocence, parental rights and our freedoms overall, I feel a duty to step up and do my part to protect our freedoms, our state, and our country.”

Statement: “Our Founders understood the idea of giving government certain tasks and responsibilities and created a system that would limit the power and reach of government. I believe in limited government. As a state representative, I will legislate in a way that will protect local control.”
