Statement: Like most Americans, I am not a Republican or Democrat. Both parties support out-of-control spending, higher taxes, and limit personal liberties. I am tired of voting for the lesser of two evils. Enough is Enough.

It's time that we, the independent voters of Kennewick, Richland, and West Richland elect a State Senator who represents us and not the special interests or the big party bosses. We need someone who understands the principles of limited government. Someone who runs a small business and knows that the government is often the problem, not the solution.

If elected, I promise to oppose all tax increases and will fight to lower taxes on car tabs, property taxes, business taxes, and sales taxes. I am 100 percent opposed to creating a state income tax, head tax on employees, and taxes on soda and groceries. I also promise to be the strongest supporter of individual liberty. I will remove restrictions on free speech at every Washington public university and allow Benton County farmers to grow, process and sell cannabis.

I will be your champion for liberty in Olympia. I can't do that without your vote and support.
