Reason for Seeking Public Office:

The United States of America faces more threats today from without and within than at any other time in the history of our Nation. We have a Federal Government in Washington DC that continually threatens our 2nd Amendment Rights and our ability to defend ourselves and our homeland. Our Federal Government is complicit in allowing our borders to be invaded by criminal & illegal aliens from Mexico and Central America. Our Nation, the Western World, & Christians throughout the World are under threat daily from Islamic terrorism, yet Muslim immigration into our Nation is at an all-time high, thanks to our Federal Government. The message from Washington DC is loud and clear to the American Citizens..."We will allow enemies in that seek to harm this Nation, while simultaneously taking away your ability to defend yourself." Folks, this paints a dire picture and our Liberties are under attack.
