I was born in Billings, MT. I will be 34 during the general election. I currently live in Great Falls, MT. I own and operate a local lawncare company. I also work as a Pipefitter during the non-mowing months. I have an Associates Degree in Welding Technology from Missoula College. During my career in construction, I've had to work with many different types of people from all over the country. I've learned how to work as a team to complete a common goal in the face of adversity. Construction is a dangerous job and it takes wisdom how to navigate people problems as well as environmental problems. I have devoted much of my adult life in learning about worldviews and their consequences. I find politics fascinating and I look forward to engaging
The issue of baby murder needs to be addressed in Montana. In the early 1800s it took a few brave souls to speak out against the evil of slavery. We live in a day and age where thousands of babies are being dismembered and murdered in the womb every year. We cannot call ourselves a moral people until the most vulnerable are protected. Montana must prosecute all parties involved in the murder of infant image bearers of the Triune God as the murderers they are. The second major issue my campaign is going to address is the issue of property taxes. Taxation is theft. If the state wants to fund any programs those programs should be funded voluntarily. Widows should not be taxed out of their homes for schools they're not using.
I want Montanans to spend their own money and not have their money spent for them. I want Montana to cultivate a business conducive environment that makes business want to invest in Montana and provide Montanans good paying jobs. I want Montana to stop hiring H1B visa immigrants and hire United States citizens for it's job opportunities. I want the government to stop giving insurance companies subsidies and I want the private market to do what it does best and compete without government cronyism. I want Americans to stop poisoning themselves with processed foods and pharmaceuticals and for them to eat real food and learn how to take care of themselves. I want all illegal immigrants off Medicaid and returned to their country of origin.
I am all for requiring voter ID to make sure actual American citizens are voting in our elections. I want there to be bi-partisan accountability with totaling votes. Instead of drafting more laws that limit who can finance campaigns, I think we need to limit who can actually vote. If you have no idea how our government functions you should not be able to vote. I think we need litmus tests for voting just like we have for issuing drivers licenses. I am also for repealing the 19th Amendment. Since we have allowed all women to vote our nation has become increasingly more liberal and degenerate. I would like to see only competent men voting and I think we would see Lindsey Graham stop being elected as Senator of South Carolina.
