The First Amendment is the cornerstone of the Bill of Rights and must be protected at all costs. In recent years, individual free speech has alarmingly come under attack by the government and by the tyranny of popular culture. Similarly, the left and a weaponized government have targeted religious freedom and expression of people of faith and infringed on our First Amendment rights. I will always defend the bedrock principles of freedom of speech and of religion and the other freedoms in the First Amendment. Government has no right to infringe on these God-given rights of the people. Upholding the Constitution, and fidelity to it, is the first obligation of a member of Congress.

The upsurge of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism among youth is primarily due to the influence of the liberal media and educational indoctrination by people with liberal agendas. Certain individuals in our schools have distorted history by inaccurately portraying America’s founding and advancing a corrupt and inaccurate narrative of the current Arab-Israeli conflict. Too many Americans are misinformed by liberal propaganda, and citizens must be taught the truth- that the Arab world refuses to acknowledge Israel’s right to exist. An alarming concern festers in America – if we lose our understanding of good and evil, then we will lose our society. I will always stand with the nation of Israel and I support U.S. aid to Israel.

Along with border security, the renewal of our nation’s economy is among my top priorities, and
locally I am uniquely qualified to help protect local military installations and grow the defense sector of our economy. I have decades of experience working with community leaders to grow our defense and technology sectors and expand existing military missions. As a native Coloradan, I value protecting our state’s natural resources while advocating for a free market “all-of-the-above” energy policy. Government bureaucrats should not pick winners and losers in our energy policy. Government mandates of electric cars and renewable energy standards lead to higher prices for Coloradans – so individuals, not government, should make decisions about what products they want to use.

I will sponsor legislation to abolish the federal Department of Education and empower parents through educational choice. The Federal government has no business directing our children’s education. This is the role of local school boards. I’ve spent 35 years working to limit government intervention in education by championing school choice and parental empowerment and using my radio show and endorsement page to help elect pro-school choice candidates to office. Free market reforms will improve our nation’s K-12 education, and eradicate the damaging woke agenda of educational bureaucrats. Only when the system is given back to the customers (parents and children) will we see academic performance improve. I support all options including private, public and homeschool. Parents, not politicians, should decide.

Overall, We live in a time of increasing Government Overreach and Institutional Intimidation against American Citizens. I will work to reverse the trend and champion the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights in everyday service in the U.S. Congress. I will work to defend individual rights including, but not limited to, Religious Freedom, Freedom of Speech, Private Property Rights, and the Right to Bear Arms. In Congress, I will reflect on my commitment to the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights, which, in every vote cast to pass or block legislation, is guided by the Founding Fathers’ Original Intent.

The rise of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism is a result of Generational Indoctrination and non-assimilation-based immigration policies. Generational Indoctrination is entrenched in Government schools and public universities/colleges (e.g., Critical Race Theory, Gender Ideology, and Neo-Marxist curriculum). Non-assimilation-based immigration promotes cultural disharmony in a nation. Generational Indoctrination can be addressed by leveraging institutional funding mechanisms.  Non-assimilation-based immigration can be addressed through enhanced immigration policies and the promotion of National Patriotism. A key component of American Patriotism is Our unwavering support for Israel. More than just an ally, Israel is Our ironclad partner in promoting Freedom, Strength, and Safety on the world stage.

On a national level, I will support and vote for America-First policies such as extending the Trump-era tax cuts for individuals, reducing regulations and taxes on small businesses, fiscal responsibility in Government, and achieving U.S. Energy Dominance with Natural Gas resource development at the forefront. In Congressional District 5, I will champion working with commissioners and mayors to attract, retain, and expand a variety of technical and non-technical business organizations to the region, in addition to the defense and service industries already present. Nationally and locally, I am committed to terminating failed and unsubstantiated climate mandates and regulations on small businesses, industry, and utilities.

I support and will advance legislation such as the Parents Bill of Rights Act to ensure the rights of parents are honored and protected in Government schools. I will work to decentralize Government education and promote more effective school choice options. Since children are the most vulnerable members of society, I will work in Congress to protect them from abusive modalities in educational settings, including Gender Ideology, Critical Race Theory, grooming, and sexually inappropriate learning materials.
