Why should voters trust you?
My voting record is forged in conservative values and principles. It proves I’m a doer. I’m not beholden to any special interest groups or promises, such as the Georgia Chamber. I always represent the values of life and liberty and have the voting record to prove it.
What can be done to make local and/or state government more transparent to the public?
First, allow folks to speak at public forums without police interference. Allowing local governments to propose their
own local legislation, stop working behind their backs. Stop giving away elected offices like Superior Court Judge as political favors. A State Senator should be an open orator on the Senate floor promoting values in the presence of all.
Challenges your constituents face that elected office would allow you to address and how you would address them
Taxes: A Georgian pays higher taxes than anyone in Tennessee or Alabama. I will oppose omnibus budgets and demand unspent revenue goes to paying our 13+ billion dollar state debt.
Film subsidies: We’re paying tax dollars to bring California ideology into our communities without any benefit. This must stop.
Local officials: Local
officials should never be ruled by the state senator, they should be ruled by their constituents.
