Issues

Second Amendment

One party rule in Richmond has led to a severe erosion of our Second Amendment rights. With Governor Youngkin, Lt. Governor Sears, and Attorney General Miyares at the helm and a majority in the House of Delegates, it’s time to stand up for our rights. I led the effort to designate Louisa County as a Second Amendment Sanctuary County and eliminated the Conceal Carry Permit Fee. I will take these experiences with me to Richmond to fight for our rights to keep and bear arms. 

Taxes and Regulation

We’re seeing inflation at its highest levels in decades. Virginians are paying more at the pump and at the grocery store counter which is hurting the economic welfare of families everywhere. This is a direct result of out of control government spending and increased taxes and regulations. I will work with the new administration to cut taxes and regulations and get this inflation under control. Our small businesses are incredibly important to our community and I will have their backs in Richmond.

Law Enforcement

The Left has vilified our law enforcement officers who put their lives on the line every day for our safety. I am 100% pro-police and will stand up to attempts to make their jobs harder by cutting funding or removing qualified immunity. I support pay raises for our state troopers, sheriffs’ deputies, first responders, and other public safety individuals. 

Life

I’m a pro-life Christian and will go to Richmond to protect the God-given rights of the unborn. We’ve seen radical attempts to allow abortions up to the moment of birth and I will staunchly oppose any efforts to expand abortion here in Virginia. I applaud conservative states like Texas and Mississippi who have taken steps to limit abortion access and look forward to working with my colleagues and the new administration to take such steps here in Virginia. 

Education

The woke leftist movement to push harmful curricula like Critical Race Theory onto our children is despicable. I’ve opposed such movements in Louisa and I will do so in Richmond. We owe it to the next generation of Virginians to teach our full history, based on facts, so that we can have an understanding of what makes our country the greatest in the history of the world. I’ll stand up to teachers’ unions to which Democrats are beholden and fight for choice in our schools. 

Voter Integrity

Democrats are eroding the safeguards that protect the security of our elections and opening the door for fraud and corruption. Voter integrity is of the utmost importance to me – we need safe, free, and fair elections. We need to bring back photo ID laws and purge voter rolls on a regular basis. I look forward to working with the new administration on these laws that will increase voter integrity.
