Why are you running? I am tired of Oklahoma being last in everything that matters. I hope to help implement legislation to make Oklahomans safer, smarter, happier and healthier. I believe in vocational training and think that our workforce should have the states support.
What issue is your main focus and how will you address it if elected? Education, I want teachers to be able to focus on teaching not just state tests. I want to look at the Mississippi reading initiatives and incorporate something similar for Oklahoma. I want to see all Oklahomans have the opportunity to not just survive but to thrive.
In one sentence, why should voters choose you? My staff and students are like my family they all know I will fight for each of them, I will do the same for all Oklahomans.
