Political Positions
Economy & Taxes
Campaign materials emphasize an anti-socialism message, meritocracy, and a background in international finance and a family-owned construction business. The available material points toward a market-oriented, small-government economic outlook, with no explicit tax-rate proposal found.
Healthcare
Supports a reformed private healthcare system and prefers a private insurance voucher program for citizens who need help. Opposes government-run universal coverage and said taxpayer-funded health care should be strongly reduced in favor of market-based approaches.

Immigration & Border
Supports strong border protection, opposes sanctuary cities, and rejects policies that circumvent immigration laws. The available public materials point to a border-security-focused position rather than an expansive immigration agenda.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
Supports abortion only in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother’s life is at risk. Also says abortion is best handled at the state level rather than by federal action.
Climate & Energy
Supports protecting the environment through what is described as common sense, ethical practices, and solid science. Rejects activist-driven climate ideas and frames the issue in opposition to consensus science and school or media messaging.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports the Second Amendment without apology, says guns and ammunition should be tax-free and permitting fee-free, and says no restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety. Also opposes redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
