My Top 3 Priorities

  • Task our U.S. military to protect our borders 24/7 and eliminate future illegal immigration amnesty laws.
  • provide "free" community college and increase university student financial aid.
  • Create depression era type work programs to rebuild, repair, fix our nations, infrastructure- roads, bridges, airports and create jobs for every American who wants to work.
