Independent Candidate for State Rep District 4
Independent Candidate for State Rep District 4
Stop the Party politics from ignoring your voice in the Government.
I am running as an independent candidate for Arizona’s 4th Congressional District because it is time for real change that puts the citizens of Arizona back in control of their government.
I have spent my life watching Arizona grow, change, and face its challenges firsthand. I understand what makes our state unique, from its history and values to the people who call it home. Arizona deserves a representative who knows its communities, understands its concerns, and is committed to putting its citizens first.
My mission is simple: to represent your voices, not a political party. Too often, Washington has become consumed by political gamesmanship, endless investigations, and partisan battles that waste taxpayer dollars while accomplishing little. The two-party system has become more focused on protecting itself than serving the people who elected them to represent.
I believe hardworking Americans should keep more of what they earn. We must protect retirement programs and ensure they remain financially secure for future generations. At the same time, we need to reduce government waste, simplify the department, increase accountability, and bring greater transparency to federal spending.
America also needs to rebuild its industrial strength. For decades, manufacturing jobs have disappeared while American families are working harder and longer just to maintain their standard of living. We must encourage American industry, create stable, well-paying jobs, and restore opportunities that allow families to thrive rather than simply get by.
The time for empty promises has passed. We need practical solutions, responsible leadership, and elected officials who are willing to listen to the people they serve. I am committed to fighting for Arizona, protecting your interests, and ensuring that Arizona citizens voices to be heard in Washington.
Together, we can move beyond the broken political system, restore trust in government, and build a stronger future for Arizona and our nation.
Background: Born at St. Joe’s in 1965, you grew up in Sunnyslope, an area that was all horse property at the time. I attended Richard E. Miller, Royal Palm Elementary, and Sunnyslope High School. I joined the military as a UH-1H helicopter crew chief and served in Fairbanks, Alaska, and Fort Hood, Texas. After Desert Storm, I attended Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida, and later worked for Serv-Air and the Maryland State Troopers as a medevac mechanic. I returned home to Tempe, Arizona, in 1998, where I live with my wife Sheila and our three boys. I have never participated in politics as a candidate but feel compelled to try to make things better.
Views:
§ Constitution: I want to keep the Constitution intact and read it as it stands, people are twisting our constitution to meet narratives that suit their needs not the citizens of this country.
§ Abortion: I believe it’s a state issue, not a federal one. It is a personal choice to have an abortion. Taxpayers should not be paying for unwise decisions.
§ Immigration: I think all illegal immigrants should return to their home country and apply for proper entry, and the countries with illegal immigrants in the U.S. should forfeit any foreign aid.
§ Economy: I prioritize downsizing the federal government, closing redundant offices, and enforcing strict budgeting and spending transparency.
§ Gun Control: Gun control is not the issue; rather, mental health and crime are the real problems.
§ State Representation: I want to represent the people of Arizona and vote as they wish, advocating for stronger state responses over federal ones, aligning with Barry Goldwater’s views.
§ Arizona’s Growth: I’ve seen changes in Arizona, such as cotton fields turning into housing developments and fruit groves into shopping malls, and I want to address issues like forest mismanagement, water conservation, and wildfires.
§ Federal Mandates: My goal is to work my best to remove the yoke of government control from the federal government and bring it back to the state, so people have a better voice in Arizona.
