State issues
Property taxes & state budget
Examiner questionnaire (Budget): “Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Nebraska was once flush with one-time money, and that led to an increase of long-term spending programs. It is imperative that we reexamine the programs created during this time to see if they were successful, and, if not, we need to eliminate them before we dig the state in a deeper hole.”
Examiner questionnaire (Taxes): “According to the Legislative Fiscal Office, approximately $1.7 billion in Nebraska revenue was used to reduce property taxes across the state in FY 2025-26 which is about 25% of total state revenues. By FY 2028-29, it will be approximately $1.9 billion.”

Agriculture, water & energy (OPPD/NPPD/NRDs)
Examiner questionnaire (Natural Resources/Data Centers): “We should always look for ways to improve our soil and water health, and I have been a leader in doing so. I am a huge proponent of the Nebraska Environmental Trust and efforts taken by the Department of Water, Energy and Environment in protecting our natural resources.”
Elections / voting
Examiner questionnaire (Ballot Measures): “I believe in checks and balances. Laws that are enacted by the Legislature go through a hearing process and multiple rounds of debate, which may include amendments. Due to the nature of the ballot-enacted laws, this amendment process is not afforded to the voters.”
