My Bio
With years of experience in the military and in local communities my experience has equipped me with a strong sense of duty, integrity, commitment and empathy. Being raised in all walks of life. Prepared me to represent all Iowans of all walks of life
My Key Issues
Veterans Issues
We shouldn’t be sending billions overseas when the men an woman who risked their lives for our great nation are homeless
Government Transparency
I believe there should be full transparency with the people. As your representative I believe I am a servant to the people. Part of having transparency is staying in touch with the people I represent We the people are in charge. In the real world when we hire someone we expect them to be completely transparent with us. So why is it that politicians is the only job you can get not be honest and still keep your job
Free Speech
In Iowa within our communities we do this everyday. We don’t always agree. More times than not we respectfully disagree. Where there is open communication there is growth. I also would advocate for an amendment to the constitution protecting our free speech online
Mental Health
I will advocate for more and better policies for mental health. We have a mental health epidemic in our country. I believe a-lot of our issues of our nation stem from mental health. This is including but not limited to school shootings to the alarming amount of suicides happening especially in our veteran community
Healthcare
Our healthcare system is designed to make money off those that are sick. So why do we think they honestly want us to get better. If we get better they don't make any money. The healthcare system should be more of a non for profit system instead of a for profit
Gun Rights
I am a strong supporter of our second amendment right. we do not have a gun issue in America. We have an mental health issue in America. We need to have reform in the mental health area. If someone is battling with severe mental health issues they should not be able to carry. Also we need stricture punishments for parents who let their guns fall into the hands of our youth that commit crimes. The right to bear arms and to defend your self is a God given right. Yet with this right comes great responsibility
Power Back To The People
How do we do this. By strengthening the nuclear family. Setting term limits encouraging the average American to run. abolishing the 2 party system. uniting an sending a message as one people an one voice that it is the people who are in charge and the politicians work for us. shrinking the federal government and strengthening the state government & putting an end to government overreach an corrupt systems like the DHS system, Healthcare, judicial system. an establishing constitutional rights of the internet. Just to name a few. How do we do this, by reform, making them answer to the people and serve the people
Youth Safety
We need to protect our children first! More focus on mental health and getting them help before they get to the point of no return. Stop the indoctrination of our youth. Protect them from online predators. Keep them safe in our schools. School shooting in this country are completely out of control and we have not done nearly enough to stop them. I propose we establish a community guard to combat school shooting. This would consist of vetted volunteers of retired vets, EMT's, law enforcement, & parents. We need to have more school shooting drills so we become efficient. Have safe zones that only the faculty know about and safe houses that children can go too. For example school shooter comes in. We have two Vets stationed at the school their job will be Contain and neutralize the threat. In the meantime the shooter protocol is initiated. Emts and off duty law enforcement go the the safe zones and routs ensuring our children are safe. This will also free up our On duty law enforcement to efficiently secure the school. This can be easily run like local small town fire departments are. This wouldn't only sufficiently bring down casualties and detour shootings. It would also provide an extra layer of safety for our communities.
Rampant Taxation
we get taxed every time we turn around. our founding fathers would be appalled if they could see how much we get taxed now.taxation without representation is wrong an that is exactly what we have going on. one case in point a youth under 18 can get a job an still has to pay taxes. yet they are not able to vote. that is the exact definition of taxation without representation. I propose 1 tax. Percentage based at the state level. Then the state can decide how much they send to the federal Government and we abolish all other taxes.
National Security
Strong border. targeted deportation efforts for violent criminals & those screaming death to America safety through strength. strong military, strong national guard, an strong military force
Term Limits
2 term limit. Only exception should be at the local level if nobody else wants to run.
Revision of Law at the state local an federal level
In congress as it stands today when a law is made it is made. We need to have a process where after a set amount of time laws are revisited. we need to have laws that are compatiable with the time. For example did you know in the midwest hunting whales is illegal. that is just one example of a senseless law. in doing this an having the people vote on it will in turn give power back to the people
Strengthening and Improving our Education System
This policy is simple invest in our children. Make sure they have the resources they need. Better programs for scholarships. taking the handcuffs off teachers and let them teach. Also need to hold the students accountable for thair actions and empower the teachers to do so
