The economic condition of the middle class. A strong middle class is essential for a vibrant economy and a strong America. My major policy points aim at improving the situation of the middle class. In the 8th District I am particularly focused on the health of the agricultural economy and the rural towns supporting it. This includes the provision of medical services.
Abolish the tariffs. Congress has the authority in this area and needs to exercise it. My policies outline ways to reduce costs for food, provide first homes, provide medical screenings for all adults, reduce education costs and increase trades education.
