What is your platform? I will stand up for rural Colorado, I will protect our constitutional rights, defend agriculture, fight for our children's future, support our brave law enforcement officers and reduce crime, reduce inflation, become energy independent, and work to improve medical care for our citizens and veterans. Who has been the greatest influence on your political career? The support that my family, friends, and community give me in all of my ventures. Would you do anything differently if you had a chance to do it again? I have logged over 24,000 miles traveling throughout the district building relationships and listening to voters about issues, concerns, and solutions
