Why are you running for office? *
Continue to represent those that believe in Freedom, Limited Government and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Who do you consider your political role model, and why? *
Ronald Reagan- Optimistic and Positive attitude towards America and all of our Citizens.
What is your favorite book about politics and policy, and why? *
The Bible- sounds odd but their are thousand year old lessons that are still prevalent in the political arena today that we must learn and recognize.
What will be your top priority in office? *
Continue to push back on a massive push from the progressive left to silence those that oppose their views. Do everything in my power to stop, slow or disrupt their desire for even bigger government, dependency and one party rule.
What is the biggest issue facing your area? *
The biggest issue facing my area is still government overreach and tyrannical rule.
What are the three biggest issues facing Maryland? *
Inflation is out of control Crime is becoming a major problem and is being more frequently and in all areas. State and Local Government spending priorities are dangerously focused on ill-conceived priorities.
What is your position on life issues? (abortion, assisted suicide) *
Pro-Life and and opposed to assisted suicide.
What is your position on taxes and spending? *
Taxes are far too high and aggressive towards our retirees and everyday citizens. Spending is directed towards too many government run projects that have consistently failed in the past.

Pro Second Amendment
What is your position on the legalization of marijuana? *
I am for legalized medical marijuana but not recreational use.
What is your position on the current three-tiered system for the sale and distribution of alcohol? *
I believe smaller and local producers should be able to sell directly to the consumer. I am not in favor of ig box liquor stores pushing out all the small business owned liquor stores.
What is your position on land use, growth, and development? *
I do not believe in Up zoning or cluster housing that leads to even greater congestion and infrastructural stress. Zoning classifications should remain consistent and the personal property right of everyone should be recognized and protected.
What is your position on crime and public safety? *
Crime is out of control and we must enforce our public safety laws and prosecutor those that violate them.
What is your position on county tax caps? *
There should be a county tax cap so the tax payers and government can forecast and plan accordingly.
For candidates for the General Assembly: Legislators can receive $101 per day for lodging and $47 per day for meals during the 90-day General Assembly session. If elected, do you plan to accept these benefits? Why or why not?
No on housing. I will accept a portion of the meal allowable expense.
