Priority Issues:
Active duty service-members and Veterans:
As an active duty personnel we are well misunderstood and represented in Congress. I will fight to remove Commanders from command influence or whistle-blower punishment. I will place their needs above my own. Our veterans gave the best of their lives to be cast aside as if their are in need of much assistance. They earned it and I will make it my top priority that it will happen on my watch.
Education
A good public education transformed my life in St. Charles Parish. It is every child's right and my priority to put the teachers and principles concerns first.
Jobs:
Our national economic policy should work better for working families. To become a more prosperous nation, is a goal that we must work together to achieve.
Health Care:
I will fight for a universal access to affordable, quality health care is a necessity, both morally and practically, and it should be a fundamental American right. I will defend The Patient Protection and adjust the Affordable Care Act as an important first step.
Protecting & Respecting Seniors:
Social Security and Medicare are solemn generational promises that we have made to our seniors. It is that we care for those who have cared for us -- and I will continue to do everything within my power to keep those promises."
Small & Minority Business:
We must listen to and place the needs of the small businesses at the forefront in Congress. As they are the backbone of our country. A policy to fair competition and taxes has to be set and placed in the house.
National security:
As an active duty service-member I am and continue to defend our National Security even at the cost of my own survival.
