Philosophy

The government’s role is to protect the lives, liberty, and property of the citizens,
then to provide for the people those critical functions which individuals or private
organizations cannot perform.

Transparency

Budget should be easily accessible to all citizens for review and analysis. Ensuring that our people have the tools to deliver this work product for us is essential.

Taxes

I firmly believe it is possible, even necessary, to run our county without breaking
our citizens. Real tax reform is critical to this endeavor.

Economic Development

It is the responsibility of County leadership to consistently and deliberately
champion free enterprise and individual initiative for the continued economic
growth and prosperity of our County.

Natural Resources

Wise use of and forward planning with our natural resources is an absolute
necessity to our way of life on the Palouse.
