“I believe in limited government. I have a passion for reining in big government. I believe in people and in families and in small businesses. I am skeptical of trying to solve problems by growing government programs and/or creating new government programs.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “I believe in the United States Constitution, including the Bill of Rights, in the Idaho Constitution and in individual freedom and liberty. I am a fierce defender of religious liberty, free speech, gun rights and the right to chart one’s own course, pursuing as one sees fit, his own or her own American Dream/Idahoan Dream.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “I believe in free markets. Free markets have done far more to reduce hunger and poverty and to raise the standard of living than any government program ever will.”
