I stand for: Good Schools, Good Jobs, and Fair Taxes.
This web site is dedicated to providing current information and news from the legislature and to listening to all voters through a regular weekly poll during the session on an important issue facing our state. I hope to use your information and ideas to make informed decisions on the votes I will make each week. I also plan to share your important thoughts with other legislators to aid in what I believe is essential cooperation in the legislature so we can get the important things done for our state.
I have wanted to serve this community as a legislator since my first year of teaching in Manhattan in 1968. I appreciate your interest in the political process and I hope this site will give you easy access to me and to the important issues facing me each week. I appreciate the opportunity the Manhattan/Ogden community has given me to represent all citizens and I take the expectation seriously to make decisions that are in the best interests of everyone. I believe state government must operate efficiently, while maintaining its commitments and priorities to key programs, especially education.
I look forward to hearing from you through the poll, from e-mail or phone calls, or perhaps at the monthly “Coffee Chat” during the session at Bluestem Bistro (Java) in Aggieville the first Saturday of each month from 9:00 to 10:15 am.
