Priority Issues:

The following are my legislative priorities at this time:

Life and traditional American family values -- Champion conservative family values that includes a total pro-life and faith-based foundation.
Conservative principles that support the Founders' Intent of less government, lower taxes, and individual responsibility, while supporting a strong pro-business environment with limited government intervention and regulation. Includes a serious review to reduce property taxes and appraisal values.
Choice in education founded in traditional American values, history and exceptionalism. Purge common core and C-SCOPE curriculums while continuing to reform the public education system.
State sovereignty with a strong focus on legal immigration, border security and the elimination of sanctuary cities.
Fiscally conservative, transparent budget, factored on population growth and inflation, with "zero-based" budgeting for all funded government agencies and operating entities. Eliminate all deferrals of fees and taxes collected.
Texas will only be as great as the infrastructure that we create to help it grow. This includes water, roads, energy and establishing an exceptional business environment that will continue to attract people and businesses to Texas.
Strongest support of the Constitution, including a focus on the 2nd Amendment.
An unfailing commitment to our Veterans and 1st Responders.
Elimination of all unfunded mandates.
