Thanks for your support! This is my first newsletter sent directly through the website. Please let me know how it turned out!
Welcome to this issue of our campaign newsletter. The campaign is progressing extremely well. We are continuing to get out our message of economic freedom, smaller government, fiscal responsibility, lower taxes and a revitalization of our private sector in order to create jobs. Small business is the engine of job creation in America. We need to become small business friendly.
Fiscal responsibility is a cornerstone of freedom. However, following the example of our federal government, West Virginia continues to fall further into debt:
We cannot continue to grow the size of our state government. When you add up federal, state and local spending, it adds up to 52% of the Gross State Product (GSP). That’s right, more than half of the spending that happens in West Virginia is government spending. This is not sustainable. Picture a person whose feet have grown so large that they now have trouble walking. We need to change direction quickly – before it’s too late.
Campaign News

Fundraising
We are currently in fundraising mode. We have been blessed with a tremendous opportunity in this election – it is definitely winnable! However, a winning campaign needs to be adequately funded. Please consider contributing to the campaign $10, $25, $50, $100, $250….up to $1000. We need your vote, but we also really (really!) urgently need your support. Whatever amount you can contribute is critically important and is gratefully appreciated!! You can contribute securely at our website using your credit card:
