2. Can you share the three most important issues facing your district/state, and how do you envision working collaboratively to find solutions that benefit everyone?

1.Cost of living-reduce federal spending and the endless printing of money to bring inflation back under control.
2.Borders-secure our borders, finish the wall, deploy more border patrol agents, and reinstate the remain in Mexico policy.
3. National security-peace through strength, restore morale in our military, and put our adversaries back in check where they belong.
