Why I’m Running:

  • Wyoming’s family.  Folks who live here want to be here.  I’m proud of our State with all its world-class uniqueness.
  • Wyoming’s challenged.  Our status-quo is being forced to change.
    • We’re an energy powerhouse.  But outsiders want to shut down the heritage resources we depend on utilizing questionable logic.
    • Nearly half our land is Federally owned – with strings attached.  But Wyomingites thrive on self-determination.  We need to stick up for ourselves, stand on our own two feet and push back against pernicious Federal over reach.
    • We like to think of ourselves as dependable throwbacks from simpler times.  But the present day world continues to churn just outside our doors and refuses to be ignored.
  • I’m a longstanding member of the Wyoming family.  But I also bring 30+ years of global experience across the full spectrum of the oil and gas industry to the table.  My desire is to harness my experience working as a team within our Legislature so we can forge together Wyoming’s future by harnessing dependable, workable solutions to the challenges we face.

What I Stand For:

  • The full breadth of the Wyoming Republican Party Platform.
  • Sovereign individuals residing in sovereign States with the Federal government restricted to US Constitutional parameters as our Founders designed.
  • Wyoming’s aggressive contribution to our Nation’s energy independence. True science must lead the way however, not pseudo-science driven by scare tactics.

My Background and Family:

  • My wife Lijuan and son Matt are the light of my life.  Matt deserves the same opportunities I’ve been afforded, as do your kids.  This won’t happen unless we fight for their futures today.  (Background Details)
  • General Michael Flynn is an inspiration to me.  He knows far beyond anything I’ve ever experienced what it means to fight for family, Country and honor.  “Deliver the Truth, whatever the Cost”.

State Revenue and Budget Trends:

  • I’ve dealt with large revenues and budgets throughout my career and pulled together a few high level trends.  Our revenue streams are challenged as stated above.  Our budget is also challenged as we strive for proper fiscal balance.  The traditional Republicans’ perspective is that our State’s budget has been stable for years, thanks to their efforts.  The Freedom Caucus claims our budgets are growing exponentially.  Who’s right?  As is so often the case, both are, depending on the perspective one takes.  However, the last six years have seen accelerating growth rates year to year.  Serious discussions are required to flatten this resent surge or we risk consequential damage in the years ahead.  With your support, I hope to attend and add value to these discussions.  (Economics Trends)
