Get StartedWe will create a single online 1-Stop Shop portal for all state licenses and permits, replacing the need to navigate dozens of different agencies. Furthermore, we will implement a 1-In, 2-Out rule, requiring state administrative agencies to eliminate two old, outdated regulations for every new one they create. This will force a top-to-bottom review of our state's rulebook, clearing out the bureaucratic clutter that holds our businesses back. Learn more
One of the core functions of government is to ensure every child has access to a quality education. We need more teachers and less bureaucracy. A functioning society needs critical thinkers, so children should be taught how to think, not what to think: education, not indoctrination. We have to embrace parents’ rights. Parents are the number one advocate for their child’s education, as they know their child better than anyone. We also need to expand educational pathways other than four-year degrees. We can partner with industry to provide direct pathways to well-paying, sustainable employment. Learn more
Our restoration problems are caused by underinvestment in undergrounding powerlines, vegetation management, and grid modernization. We can power up Michigan by evaluating the performance of our utility companies in addressing these issues. Utilities receive increased return on equity if they overperform, and Michiganders receive rebates if utilities underperform. Learn more
Michigan’s forests and lakes are a national treasure. The Great Lakes are the lifeblood of Michigan’s tourism industry. I will work to provide local communities the resources they need to protect these natural wonders, ensuring Michiganders and other Americans alike can continue to enjoy our beautiful outdoors. This includes supporting clean water initiatives, protecting endangered species, and preserving biodiversity in our forests. Learn more
The industries of the twenty-first century require high amounts of energy. To supply these industries and keep up with residential demand, we must increase energy capacity and supply. This means growing the hydrogen economy, reviving existing nuclear plants, creating small modular reactors, incentivizing individualized solar generation, embracing agrivoltaics, and investing in enhanced geothermal systems.

For builders, we can redirect construction incentives toward middle-market and attainable homeownership, making it financially viable to build the homes working families actually need rather than only luxury units and rentals. Learn more
For municipalities, we can create a property tax backfill fund that compensates communities for approving attainable homes — calibrated to each community's own home values, and designed to work with local government rather than around it. Respecting local control and character means removing fiscal disincentives, not issuing mandates from Lansing. Learn more
Democrat activists want to take away local zoning control. This cannot happen. The character of our neighborhoods should be decided by their community members, not Lansing bureaucrats. Radical attempts to outlaw single-family zoning pose a serious threat to property values. As your representative, I will stand strong against these attacks on the American Dream. Learn more
In a state with freezing and thawing, high weight limits on trucks, and increasingly common severe storms, we should spend now to save later. If we want Michigan roads to last more than a few years, we must be willing to invest in preventative maintenance. In the short term, this will cost extra. But in the long term, we will save money with lower needs for constant vehicle and road repairs. Learn more
