| Most important issue: | My unique combination of both business and education gives me a distinct advantage in finding long-term, smart solutions to solve two of our state's pressing issues - economic growth and education funding. We need tax reform that benefits all with policies that encourage job creation and that allows for fair funding and local control in decision making for our cities and schools. In addition, we need to be better stewards of the dollars we have by restoring fiscal responsibility, eliminating waste and setting reasonable priorities. I promise my District that I will work hard on these issues on their behalf. | |
