- "I believe education is an issue of national strength and security, and one best made by parents, not the government.

I believe in parental choice in education." (www.lynzsc.com)
- "School choice is really about taking our tax payer money back from the government and putting it back in our pockets so that we as parents decide how our children are educated. Government overreach is criminal! It is not the governments job" (twitter.com)

- "We all watched the humiliation of America under Joe Bidenâs retreat from an ill-advised, protracted war in Afghanistan. Using American life and treasure in endless wars that engage in nation-building is foolish. When we engage in conflict it should only be because we have a national security interest, a clear definition of victory and an exit strategy." (www.lynzsc.com)
