Issue Position

Every politician in Alabama promises to create jobs in their district; however, few of them actually know how. Even fewer have ever actually created a job themselves or started a small business. I am 32 years old, and have started multiple small businesses and created 40 Alabama jobs. I have seen first-hand how government regulations, fees, and red tape stunt business growth and discourage entrepreneurship.

As your representative in Montgomery, I will sponsor a bill to eliminate the Business Personal Property tax and Business Privilege tax. These two job-killers are paperwork nightmares and one goes so far as to charge tax annually on all business assets. That includes desks, chairs, lamps, coffee pots, trashcans, staplers, Christmas decorations, toilet paper, etc. It's just nuts!
