Issue Position: Prioritize Road & Infrastructure Safety

Issue Position

Providing for safe roads and related transportation infrastructure is a valid purpose of government, however too often taxpayer funds are wasted on frills that are hardly mission-critical. Bike paths, greenways, and other amenities are nice, but are rarely worth diverting precious resources when so many safety and usability issues still exist along the roadways. To make matters worse, the abuse of eminent domain to facilitate such unnecessary feature additions is now commonplace, with few elected officials willing to stand up against such overreach.

I pledge to support road and infrastructure improvements with the primary goal of improving safety and usability, and will oppose the use of eminent domain for unnecessary amenities.
