"I believe the focus of our government should be simple: freedom, family, finance and fundamentals! We need a government that sets the framework and then gets out of the way. 

As a state representative, I have honored the principles I first ran on. I voted against raising gas taxes and increasing vehicle registration fees, I authored legislation to drastically reduce auto insurance rates and I voted against tax breaks that picked winners and losers. 

As your state senator I will continue to work hard for the families of Livingston and Washtenaw counties."
