The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:

We have maintained domestic Tranquility over the years and promoted the general Welfare. This has benefited all of us old and young and new or long term resident. Those of us in public office need to maintain these wonderful qualities of our town and work together to do the right thing for the greater good.

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I have a conservative prospective on education. The basics of education in all aspects of learning is an important part of the foundation for a happy life. I am not opposed to moving forward with new ideas and but not in favor of those things that tear down our American ideals.

Accomplishments:

I have worked on several Boards that provided; help for the disadvantaged and prosperous work environment for employee's/customers and the successful completion of capital projects and buildings.

Other issues:

In this time we are confronted with the pandemic we must work together to respect everyone's individual rights and ideas. Because the day will come that this pandemic will pass and what is said and done should not negatively impact our town going into the future.
