Many of our elected officials are steering the ship in the wrong direction. Our Legislature has a spending problem and I want to help bring a sense of fiscal responsibility back to the Capitol. I'll work with you for:
> more jobs > lower taxes > smaller government > improved healthcare > quality education > safe neighborhoods

"We do not typically endorse political candidates, but in your case I am making an exception. After meeting you and you family, as well as several members of your campaign, I realized that you are a different kind of politician. You have a strong faith system and you are truly looking to do the best for Minnesota." |

"The Minnesota Senate needs more common-sense, conservative voices who understand the basic principles of free market solutions to our state’s problems, as well as a long-term vision -- not a time line that lasts only until the next election." Website |
