- "Climate change is an indisputable scientific fact. Left unchecked, it threatens the future liberty, pursuit of happiness and existence of all life on our planet. But in reality, we cannot simply switch off the fossil fuel economy; it must be an intelligent transition. I advocate conversion of older inefficient power plants to natural gas. I will support legislation to stimulate a sustainable, green energy economy (and their high-wage jobs) including widespread solar, wind, smart grids, electric vehicles, efficient transportation and modernized public transit, increased energy efficiency, and energy storage technology. This thinking must be part of our nations infrastructure re-boot." (votesmart.org)

- "I remember air, land and water pollution in my hometown when I was a child, before EPA regulations. Many people are too young or perhaps have forgotten how polluted even a relatively rural area in northwest Georgia can get without controls on how businesses operate. We have come a long way in getting businesses and industries to comply and support sustainable practices to protect our environment. Protection and preservation need to be the guidelines we follow in considering environmental regulations. I will fight hard to ensure our environmental protections remain strong and our wild spaces are preserved and remain intact." (votesmart.org)
- "The Second Amendment grants us the right to bear arms, but the courts have held that it is entirely within the right of the government to place certain restrictions on this right. Universal criminal background checks and prohibitions against certain criminal offenders possessing guns are just a couple of examples of restrictions that already exist in many states. In addition, I would support those who are seeking to re-impose gun purchase prohibitions on persons who are severely mentally ill." (votesmart.org)
