Every child deserves access to a high-quality education. By increasing funding for schools, enhancing teacher support, and addressing the disparities in education, we can ensure students have the resources they need to succeed. Promoting fair school funding is essential, and by distributing resources more equitably we can close gaps and strengthen schools that serve students with greater needs. Investing in our schools today means a stronger future.

Schools should focus on giving children a strong education. Outside agendas should have no place in the classroom, and parents should have the primary say in how their children are raised and educated. Children belong to their parents, not to the Commonwealth.

As a father, I believe every woman and girl deserves fairness, safety, and respect. Women’s sports should remain for women, ensuring that girls have equal opportunities to compete and succeed. Allowing biological males to participate in female athletics undermines decades of progress and robs young women of the opportunities they have earned. Similarly, public spaces like restrooms should remain safe and private for women and girls. I will fight to uphold laws and policies that protect the rights, safety, and integrity of women in all areas of life.

I strongly support our constitutional right to bear arms, but I also believe in common-sense measures to ensure public safety. This includes backing thorough background checks to keep firearms out of the hands of those who shouldn’t have them. By balancing our rights with responsible gun ownership, we can create safer communities while protecting our freedoms.

Access to affordable, quality healthcare is vital for a thriving community. I will fight to expand mental health services, address the current healthcare professional shortages, and improve on the current healthcare infrastructure to meet the growing needs of our community.

A thriving community starts by supporting local businesses and creating sustainable jobs. Attracting new industries and investing in economic growth will provide better opportunities for residents and secure long-term prosperity.

Upgrading our roads, bridges, and public transportation is essential for safety, quality of life, and economic growth. Upgrading infrastructure makes our district more accessible and appealing for businesses and new residents.

Protecting our environment is crucial for future generations. Promoting green spaces, reducing pollution, and implementing sustainable practices creates a cleaner, healthier community for all.

Our veterans have sacrificed so much, and they deserve care, opportunity, and stability in return. I will work to expand access to healthcare, including mental health services, so veterans can get the support they need without long delays. Creating more job training and apprenticeship programs through partnerships with local businesses and community colleges will help veterans build meaningful careers, and I will support incentives for employers who hire them. Housing is another priority, and I will advocate for more affordable options and grants for home modifications for disabled veterans. I also believe prescription medications should be affordable, and I will fight to lower costs so veterans can access the treatments they rely on.
