1. In the following area, please explain in a total of 100 words or less, any additional priorities of your campaign that have not been covered in these questions.
- To address my constituents? most pressing concerns, namely affordability and financial security, I intend to continue to prioritize delivering tax relief to overburdened taxpayers, including homeowners as well as small business owners. This efforts includes working to reform the state?s broken and politicized school funding formula. The disparity in the state?s school funding formula not only under-resources school districts deserving of more funding, it also places an unfair, heavier tax burden on taxpayers living in affected communities. To create more employment opportunities, I will continue to advocate for more effective economic policies, including reducing burdensome and unnecessary regulations.
