The Constitution -This is the founding document and the supreme law of the land, not a guideline. Every single right outlined in the bill of rights is 100% absolute.
Freedom of Speech and Religion - I fully believe that every free-thinking human has the right to express their thoughts, opinions, and ideas without fear of punishment by the government. Everyone has the right to practice whatever faith they choose; however, they choose.
The Right to Bear Arms - You have a right to defend yourself and your way of life how you see fit. No one has the right to force what firearms or accessories a Wyomingite is allowed to own. Guns do not commit crimes! Evil people commit crimes. Law-abiding gun owners prevent crimes!
Small Government - The less government in our lives, the more control we as individuals can dictate the outcome of our own lives. The more the government is involved in our lives, the less we are free to make our own decisions and the fewer liberties we have.
Runoff Elections - Crossover voting is when a Democrat registers as a Republican to vote in the primaries. This removes your voice as a republican to be represented by someone who represents the party's values and platform. Runoff Elections would eliminate crossover voting.
The Right To Pursue Happiness - You have the right to pursue a self-satisfying lifestyle. No one is entitled to one from the government or off the backs of others.
Self-Preservation - Everyone has the right to self-preservation.
State Sovereignty -The state of Wyoming has the right to govern itself. Any powers not outlined in the constitution to the federal government belong to the state of Wyoming. The state government does not do enough to assert those powers.
Production of American Energy - The Biden administration has failed Wyoming to force an unsustainable green energy policy on Wyoming and the nation. $5+ gas directly results from Biden’s and the left’s attack on the development of Wyoming’s natural resources. I fully support the development of all of Wyoming’s resources.
School Choice - Parents should be able to send their children to the schools that they feel best benefit them. This includes homeschooling. Funding needs to follow the children. Those that home school and own property should get tax credits.
Equality of Opportunity - I believe everyone, regardless of background, race, sexual orientation, and sex, has and should have the opportunity to succeed. Those who work hard and overcome life challenges deserve to enjoy the benefits of their hard work. Equality of outcome is the result of someone benefitting off the back of someone else.
I am against:
State Interference in Politcal Parties - The state should not be dictating how the county and state republican party should be internally governed. This is an extreme government overreach.
Lockdowns - Government-enforced lockdowns mandated by the executive branch are never acceptable. This takes away from the voice of the people in the state.
Biological Males Playing in Female Sports or Using Female Bathrooms - Males are biologically more robust than females (Science). Under no circumstances should a biological male be able to compete against a biological female.
Vaccine and Mask Mandates - Like lockdowns, the government should not enforce mask mandates mandated by the executive branch. What you put into your body is your choice. The government has no right to force you to get vaccinated or be punished.
Abortion - I do not believe that abortion is a constitutional right. I fully support the Supreme Court sending this decision back to the state. Life begins at conception. I also fully support Wyoming banning Abortion except for rape, incest, or risk to the mother’s life.
Open Boarders - The Biden administration allowing anyone across the border is unacceptable. I support legal immigration.
Biden’s 30/30 -
The states should control public lands, not the federal government. Biden’s land grab is yet another overreach of the federal government. The federal government should not be allowed to grab land as they please. Wyoming should work to reclaim the federal land within the state. The state would better manage this.
Medicaid Expansion - The first response to affordable healthcare should not be to marry the state to the federal government. The fact that this has been the only solution proposed is a problem. The current administration is forcefully making the federal government more powerful. We as a state should be fighting back against all of Biden’s federal overreach.
Socialism - Anyone able and capable of putting a roof over their head and food on the table should be expected to. I believe it is morally unacceptable to live off the back of the working people to benefit yourself.
Crossover Voting - The only ones that don’t believe that crossover voting is an issue are the ones that crossover voting benefits. Democrats, Leftists, and Progressives crossing over to vote in the Republican primaries to change back and vote in the general election disenfranchise conservatives within the republican party.
Government Subsidies for Private Enterprise - Bill Gates and Microsoft have enough money. Tara Power should not be getting a pass on taxes and subsidies to form the state to build a power plant here. I do not believe we should accept anything with Bill Gates’ name on it.
Civil Asset Forfeiture - No government in the United States should be able to stop you on the side of the road and confiscate your money or property because it is associated with a perceived crime. This is a blatant violation of the constitution.
