Why are you running?:

The top priorities are the budget, public safety and economic development. Why? Because these are tough economic times. Taxpayers deserve to have people on the job who have real-world experience squeezing every ounce of value out of every tax dollar. I’ve balanced eight budgets in a row on the Clovis City Council, and I’ve done it while protecting public safety and making our area attractive for new business and job growth.

New businesses bring new jobs, and broaden the tax base, keeping taxes low for everyone. As a husband and father of two sons, I want Fresno County to offer a good job market that will allow our young people to stay here. To accomplish these goals, I would support the county building new business parks. That’s an investment that will pay for itself again and again. Let’s protect agriculture while investing in smart growth for the future.
