It's time to Stand up for our Rights

The single greatest thing I can do right now for my country is to run for the PA House 4th District seat. The basic rights of our Constitution are being trampled on under the guise of an emergency and empowered by fear. WE THE PEOPLE are the keepers of the Constitution in which the framers wrote specifically for times like this. Our well-being and healthcare and that of our children are in no one else’s hands before our own. WE THE PEOPLE choose our elected officials to govern, and we reserve the Constitutional right to recall them. “Influence is not government.”   When a state institutes mandates whereas a small mom and pop hardware store is deemed dangerous, yet Lowe’s and Home Depot are overflowing with people-you should be concerned. Or when a State mandate shuts down nearly everything but Walmart and their State owned liquor stores – you need to be concerned.  If you were like me and asked questions, were you silenced? Have you asked yourself why?  It’s time for our elected leaders to ban together and do what we were elected to do – serve our people and communities and put aside partisan politics so that ALL have the same opportunity to thrive.

There is a strong debate going on across the country regarding voter rights and election integrity. Without confidence in voter laws people are going to forfeit their right to vote if they think it’s not being counted. Pennsylvania is still under scrutiny for the handling of the 2020 election. It is the duty of your elected officials to ensure that EACH AND EVERY legal vote is counted. We now have States that require vaccine passports to be able to eat in a restaurant or attend a sporting event but call it unconstitutional to require an ID to vote. We need to count on those we elect to protect our vote and to be sure it is counted.   My mission is to serve and to restore the rightful power of our Constitution to the people. 

Inflation is affecting everyone. While it starts at the top (Washington DC), individual States need to do their part in helping to lessen the financial strain on people and small businesses. We need to focus on getting people back to work. Businesses are being forced to change hours of operations due to lack of people willing to work. We are still seeing businesses who just couldn’t keep up and were forced to close their doors for good.   Most people received  “stimulus” checks of $1200 each under CARES Act. Do you realize that that money has been put into your car just to get you to and from your job? Pennsylvania is among the top four States in the country for the highest gas tax. California is ranked one, followed by Illinois, then Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Have you ever wondered where all your tax dollars are going?   According to richstatespoorstates.org, Pennsylvania is ranked number 36 in the United States for its economic outlook and 40th in the United States for its economic performance. We can do better, but we need fresh faces in Harrisburg for this to happen.
