Education: Local parents and teachers know best how our children will learn. Decisions about education should be returned to the local communities so that we can craft education policies that work best for our community's children.
Economic Relief: Many in our community are struggling from rising prices and other economic challenges. We should reduce the tax burden on ordinary citizens at a time of an extraordinary budget surplus, while also ensuring that our most vulnerable neighbors receive the help they deserve by clamping down on fraud and waste of taxpayer funded relief.
