Issue Position

Jobs and Economic Development
We've faced the challenges of stereotypes for generations. While we can't change all perceptions, we can control our destiny by enacting incentives and initiatives that allow for economic growth.
I am completely in favor of tax-based incentives for employers to train their potential and current workforce to better their productivity and careers. I believe that a true partnership between education and workforce will lead to outstanding opportunities for not only our young people but our current workforce. The true integration between employers, Marshall University, Mountwest Community and Technical College, Cabell & Wayne County Schools and the other training institutions in our region will lead to impressive results.
