Policy Positions
Clear principles, practical solutions. No political jargon, no empty promises. Here's exactly what I'll fight for in the Senate.
Your rights are not negotiable. Government exists to protect liberty, not restrict it.
"Your life choices aren't Washington's business."
The federal government should not dictate personal, family, or intimate life choices.
Defend privacy as a core liberty, protect access to contraception and personal healthcare decisions from political micromanagement, and treat civil rights as universal.
"Protect rights, punish violence, stop criminalizing ordinary citizens."
Law-abiding adults keep their rights; enforcement should target prohibited possessors and violent criminals, not paperwork traps.
Restructure or eliminate ATF's current posture. Move to a narrower, enforcement-focused model aimed at violent crime and illegal trafficking, while removing "gotcha" rulemaking that turns technicalities into felonies.
"Your data shouldn't be for sale, and your government shouldn't buy it."
Citizen privacy is a first-order right in the digital age.
Outlaw or severely restrict commercial mass surveillance (data-broker ecosystems), require real consent, create serious penalties for illegal collection/sale, and tighten warrant standards for government access. Your government, bank, insurance company, or potential employer shouldn't be able to purchase your private information.
"More competition produces better candidates."
Voters should have more choice and competition; closed systems fuel extremism and safe-seat incentives.
A U.S. Senator can't unilaterally change Florida's primary rules, but I can advocate, elevate, and support state reforms while aligning federal incentives around election transparency and competition.
The Constitution sets boundaries. We should respect them even when it's inconvenient.
"The Constitution is the operating manual. Follow it even when it's inconvenient."
Re-center Congress, rein in executive overreach, restore oversight norms.
Tighter limits on emergency powers, stronger inspector general authority, real whistleblower protections, and fewer "blank check" delegations to agencies.
"Help when life breaks, don't build permanent dependency."
Reduce taxes and the scope of government, while keeping a targeted safety net for true catastrophes and genuine inability to work.
Time-bound and assessment-driven support for temporary hardship, with strong guardrails for long-term disability programs so they remain credible and sustainable.
"If the public pays, the public should benefit."
Make care more affordable and invest in research that delivers breakthroughs.
When taxpayer dollars fund major research, the public should benefit through open, widely usable licensing frameworks where appropriate, so discoveries don't get locked behind paywalls forever.
"Strong markets need stable alliances and predictable rules."
Pro-growth economics with stable trade relationships and serious ally management.
Repair trust with key trade partners; treat Canada and Mexico as sovereign partners while cooperating hard on drugs and organized crime; deepen trade and security ties with Taiwan; show consistent respect to long-standing allies (UK, Denmark, EU partners) who've shared burdens with us.
No one is above accountability. Authority must be earned and monitored.
"Bad conduct shouldn't be untouchable because it wears a badge."
When government actors violate rights, the public deserves a real remedy, without collapsing good-faith policing.
Modernize immunity doctrines and liability rules so egregious misconduct isn't shielded, while preserving protections for reasonable actions taken in good faith. Increase transparency, body-cam standards for federal agencies, and independent review for serious incidents.
"Public dollars require public accountability."
Public education is a civic cornerstone and deserves priority funding and accountability.
Public funds must deliver public value. If private/charter options take public dollars, the bar for audits, outcomes, transparency, and non-discrimination should be high. The default is strengthening public schools, not hollowing them out.
"Order at the border, clarity in the law, and a realistic path forward."
Border governance must be orderly and enforced, and the legal system must be modernized.
Faster, fairer processing; clear rules; serious consequences for criminal activity; and a legislated pathway that's not a political football every cycle.
"Principled strength, not impulsive wars."
Support partners who stand with us; confront dictators; avoid reckless adventurism that drags allies into messes without a plan.
Strength through alliances, deterrence, and disciplined use of force with clear objectives.
"Build faster, build smarter, build to last."
Make it possible to build again: faster permitting, modern grids, resilient infrastructure, and pragmatic energy policy.
Streamline approvals without abandoning safety, invest in reliability, and prioritize projects that reduce costs and harden the country.
I believe in transparency and honest dialogue. Reach out anytime.
