U.S. House, District 4 · Alabama

Guns

I will continue to support this kind of legislation, as I firmly believe that we need to expand the rights of gun owners rather than seeking new ways to impose restrictions.

Immigration & border

I feel very strongly that amnesty should not be automatically granted to those who are here illegally.

Hospitals, farms, schools

For thirty years, we’ve been told to wait our turn while our hospitals close, our farms are squeezed by monopolies, and our public schools are defunded.

Spending and taxes

In short, I believe that the strength of our economy lies in the people and businesses of the United States, not with further government spending.

Cost of living

People are burning through their savings right now, and people might lose their entire savings. Those who have worked for their entire lives are now almost gone. Younger folks like me, we can’t even begin to contemplate saving when we are living paycheck to paycheck. I would say we are living in an affordability crisis.

Rural infrastructure

I have had the opportunity to work with a lot of counties and cities that are not highly populated, or a lot of income because of their tax base, and trying to help them with sewer connections, and trying to get some highways in there to connect to certain areas so that they can do economic development on their own.

Food assistance

With the cuts, I have thousands of constituents who are in a greater threat of food insecurity than they were before.
