Ballot
Statement - 2012
"
As a career Marine, I have
dedicated my life to service to this Nation. In combat, I fought for
all Americans and alongside every race, creed, and color of this great
Nation. I will take that same ethic to Washington DC, representing the
53rd District.
I have also worked in the private sector, working for a small
construction company in La Mesa. I knew then, as I do now, that raising
taxes on my employer or adding restrictions on him just meant lower
wages and less work for me, the workingman.
I am of the working class, and I know the reality of tough
financial
choices. Today, our Nation faces similar difficult decisions to balance
our federal budget. I have witnessed first hand the best in Americans
and know that our federal government often best serves us by getting
out of our way. Leave revenue here in our community where it can grow
jobs. I believe in one set of rules and one set of civil rights for
everybody.
I graduated with honors from San Diego State University. My
home is in
Chula Vista, where I earn a modest living as an author while I complete
my teaching credential. I live in this community and know solutions are
found here, not in Washington DC. I reject politics of division. As
your Representative, I will serve all in this community, not just those
of one political party."
