Farmer / small-business owner, husband, father, Navy, social work, degrees: sociology/religion, born/raised Mexican border
Why are you running for office?
I'm fighting for our America. I enlisted into the Navy to fight for my country. Corrupt politicians work with foreign governments to thwart our peaceful lives on our own property. The Communist Chinese have their fingers in all aspects of our lives. I'm fighting against government corruption.
What are the biggest challenges facing the cities in your district?
Growing pains. Cities covering existing expenditures while improving future infrastructure. Large corporations forcing towns and cities to yield to the corporate wishes. Corrupt politicians siding with the corporations. Cities need greater access to clean drinking water. The people need safe clean drinking water without their property stolen by eminent domain.
How do you plan to address these issues?
By working with the local governments and the residents to identify exact problems that the federal government can help them.
What would your top priorities be if you are elected?
The federal government has immense power to help the cities and local governments to navigate the future infrastructure needs. One of my pet projects. Without conviction, people sit in jails for years waiting for trial. Before conviction, people need help to ensure their rights are protected.
