My Top 3 Priorities
Inflation is killing our economy. We need to focus on becoming energy independent
Our borders are wide open and the security of our nation is in jeopardy. Until we secure our borders we will continue to have a fentanyl and human sex trafficking problem
We need to fix our public schools. Title 1 money should follow the students and not the schools.
