Where do I stand on...?

---

How is your grocery bill as of late? Are you tired of prices rising? We must work to promote bipartisan legislation to improve state revenue to decrease cost of transportation, and improve affordability of groceries.

Many on the streets have suffered trauma and require mental health treatment. There must be stricter trespass warnings alongside compassionate medical treatment for incarcerated homeless individuals. 

Moving forward, we must find ways to promote the safety of all people in our communities. I do not support the use of taxpayer dollars towards illegal immigration. To manage this crisis, we must work with competent non-profits, while providing security for our state and our nation. 

We desire to invest in the future of our energy, nuclear energy, while also supplying the energy needs of our people, and sustaining our schools funding. In a world where energy independence is becoming more and more important, we must use our natural resources. This would increase state revenue without the need for higher taxes.

How much did your taxes rise last year? Property taxes have spiked drastically at the same time that inflation is rampant. Property tax appeals by our constituents should be listened to rather than ignored. We must fight to defend the taxpayer bill of rights (TABOR) from any attempts at repeal.

This is my expertise as a clinician. We must find solutions that improve quality care, as well as affordability and access to patients. Anyone who wishes to own an insurance company must be allowed to do so. Costs of medical services should be disclosed to patients to enable fiscal decision making.

Your safety is of utmost importance. We want to ensure the protection of our people. I will address this by ensuring that police are well funded and are protected to enforce the law. Decriminalization of major crimes must stop.

We promote the freedom and well-being of the people. By protecting the second amendment, we ensure both your safety and your freedom. In so doing we will promote the safety and flourishing of our communities, and enable a greater sense of well being. 

Your voice matters. Your thoughts matter. We must be allowed to speak our mind and have a right to assembly and religion. These truths must be recognized and sustained by our local and federal government. We must protect these inherent rights.
