Why I am Running

I feel I have the experience to represent Gillette and Campbell County at the state level. As of right now there is nobody at the state level that has any experience in Coal Mining Industry. I feel Campbell County's interest could better be served with someone of my background and experience. I not only can help protect the interest of CC and the coal industry but focus on the Economic Development that would help diversify and balance the number one tax base for out state.

Top 3 Priorities

1.Economic Development with bringing other industries to our community. 2.Remove some of the barriers to improve the affordable housing that is desperately need in Campbell County. 3. Lower the cost of Health Care by working across state lines to have more options for Wyoming families.
