General: (political statement of goals, objectives, views, philosophies)
|
Since being elected to the North Carolina House of Representatives in 2002, our State has undergone tremendous changes. I remain focused on lowering taxes for all North Carolinians and bringing more jobs to Cleveland County.
Creating jobs and promoting economic development are among the most important and most challenging functions of government, especially in difficult economic times. I believe we must lower taxes in order to gain more jobs for our citizens, grow our economy, and protect our hardworking taxpayers.
I continue to fight for the passage of the North Carolina Taxpayer Bill of Rights, which will result in dramatic tax reductions in our state, as well as the Small Business Tax Exemption that will give small companies many of the tax advantages enjoyed by large companies.
As your Representative, I have made protecting our children a top priority. In 2008, I secured the passage of the Jessica Lunsford Act for NC. This law protects our children by providing that certain criminal offenses of rape or sexual offenses committed against a child are punishable by either life imprisonment without parole or a mandatory active sentence of twenty-five years and lifetime satellite-based monitoring.
During the 2010 short session of the General Assembly, I co-sponsored legislation that made it possible to bring to fruition an announcement of over 200 jobs in Cleveland County. I believe Cleveland County's best days are ahead. There are several exciting projects on the horizon.
I will need your continued help and support to realize our potential. I pledge to continue serving as a strong conservative voice for Cleveland County and for North Carolina. Please feel free to email me to discuss your views on the issues.
