While working in the Office of the Clerk of Superior Court, not only did I get to know our County, I also came to know its
people, and we all have the same concerns.
We're concerned about:
(1) Providing our children and grandchildren with the
best possible education in a safe environment.
(2) The economy and gas prices.
(3) Healthcare.
(4) Illegal Immigration.
I'm not saying that I have all of the answers, but in my dealings with State Government, I learned that you must be
aggressively involved, because "the squeaky wheel does get the most grease".
I will work hard to decrease taxes by eliminating wasteful spending in the State Budget; and, I will make sure that
Wilkes County gets its share of the State Budget, including job incentives.
For 34 1/2 years, I implemented, instructed on, and enforced the laws passed by our legislature. Trust me, I've seen
frustration on the faces of our people.
I want to be the voice for these people, and all of the victims of the injustice in our society including, the unborn, the
unwanted, the poor, the homeless, the elderly, the victims of violent crimes and domestic violence. When the voters
of Wilkes County send me to Raleigh, with my knowledge and experience, I can make a difference.
In 2007, there were approximately 3500 bills introduced at The Legislature, of which about 600 became law and affect
us as North Carolina citizens. We must strive to limit the size and scope of our government.
In closing, I now ask for your support, and your vote. Thank you.
