- Government Accountability As current Chairman of the Eagle Fire District, and Eagle Fire Commissioner, I understand the inner workings of government. I promise to bring accountability and transparency to the State of Idaho. I promise to fight for fiscal responsibility in order to increase effectiveness and efficiency, while simultaneously reducing government spending.
- Constitution and 2nd Amendment I am a proud supporter of our Constitution and your 2nd amendment rights. I am a proud gun owner, and was raised around guns, and I’m an avid hunter in Idaho’s beautiful backcountry. As issues continue to rise internationally and in our own country, I will adamantly defend our fundamental constitutional right to keep and bear arms.
Having grown up in Idaho, I realize the challenges that Idaho’s growth has had on our State and our infrastructure. I see the pain that our cities, counties and districts are experiencing in our struggle to manage this substantial growth. As Chairman of the Eagle Fire District, I have been successful in implementing Impact Fees so that new growth covers its own cost. I believe in managing this exponential growth in a way that pays for itself. As your Representative, I will work to bring this mindset to the State.
My first job was bucking haybales and building fences for local farmers. I was 14 years old and did this every summer until I graduated highschool.
Of course I do. One leads best from experience.
As of now I have no other aspirations to go further in politics. But who knows what the future may hold!

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
