Protecting Freedoms: We’re blessed to live in a state that has put the people in charge and fights back against government overreach. For example, we kept our state open and kids in school during the COVID pandemic. Governor Reynolds and the Republican legislature have done a great job of protecting individual freedoms and fighting government overreach. I believe in limited government. I want to protect our freedom of speech, our 2nd amendment rights, property rights, and general right to live our lives without the heavy hand of the government interfering.  

Defending Families: As a grandfather of 3 girls, I will not stand for illogical policies that allow biological men to play women’s sports or use women’s restrooms. I fully support the rights of parents to know what is being taught to their children and also their right to choose where to send their children to school.

I'm pro-life and pro-parent!

Compassionate Leadership: We need more elected officials who are responsive to their constituents. On the city council, I answered every email and every phone call. I will have that same policy at the Capitol in Des Moines. Leaders need to be accessible to everyone that they represent and not be dismissive of their concerns.

Shrinking government: I’m also passionate about shrinking the bureaucracy. I think that in all levels of government, unelected people have gained far too much power. Elected officials who are accountable to the voters should be running our cities, states, and country. Not appointed bureaucrats!
