What are the most important challenges facing our state and how do you propose to address them?
Crumbling roads and infrastructure, schools that aren't getting the support they need and are getting money taken out of them for vouchers, and the high cost of groceries and housing.
What specific fiscal policies will you champion to stabilize everyday household costs?
Repeal of the voucher program. Reduction or repeal of the grocery tax, with funding coming from reinstatement of the franchise tax as well as legalization of recreation marijuana. Giving local government more power to deal with growth.
What additional legislation is needed to address the impact of data centers on the quality of life in our communities?
At a minimum, a provision that any increase in utilities be paid for by large data centers in areas they are built rather than the average ratepayer. A moratorium for centers above a certain size/computing level and new laws to discourage the use of generative AI would also be useful.
