1. To make sure that our citizens Constitutional rights are being upheld. During the pandemic there were many mandates that citizens of this county were subjected to that I would have fought against.
   
   
2. To make sure that the county taxes are as low as possible so that citizens can have more of their own money in their own pockets.
   
   
3. I want to increase community collaboration for the welfare of our children, elderly and indigent people by active DHS involvement. We have a growing homeless population of elderly and children. We need to work to find solutions.

I am currently serving my second term on the Cabarrus County Board of Education. During my time on the school board I have had the opportunity to gain an understanding of the budget process, working with legislators, giving a voice to parents, and standing up against illegal mandates. The reasons that I am running for County Commissioner are the same reasons that I ran for the Board of Education, to be a voice for the people. Trust and Transparency in all levels of government have come into question over the years. I will continue to be that voice for the people and make sure that they and their concerns are heard and brought to the forefront.

1. Education
   
   
2. Affordable housing
   
   
3. Elder Care
   
   
4. Economic Development, Equity & Opportunity

I am passionate about uplifting our community. From my youth to present day, I have been an active part of the Cabarrus County Community with my passion for assisting others, registering voters, and volunteering in the community.

1. End the incentives program.
2. Reduce the tax burden on our citizens.
3. Clean up corruption, especially as it is expressed by wasteful and inappropriate spending by the County Commission.

I have had plenty of experience with budgeting, having served for over 40 years as a Pastor, and having served for 11 years on the Appropriations Committee and the Subcommittee on Government Appropriations in the NC House. I never forget that God is watching me at all times and hears what I say and even my thoughts. I cannot be bought, because Jesus did that a long time ago. I cannot be bribed, because nothing they could offer me is worth more than the best interests of our citizens and my own personal integrity. I cannot be intimidated, because even if they were to kill me, I will still be with Jesus. I cannot be controlled, because only the Holy Spirit gets to do that.
