I recently visited the U.S./Mexico border to view the problems our great country is having, firsthand. What I saw shocked me to the core, and it should shock and scare every American. We have a U.S. Federal Government who is not fixing this problem, and I can point directly to the Biden Administration as the main culprit, however, the buck doesn’t stop there. Congress has a lot to do with what is happening at the border as well.
You might ask why this is a problem that should concern a State Legislator. The answer is simple, when illegal border crossers make it into the country they are released and ordered to come back for a court appearance at some future date, which many do not. These illegals put stress and burden squarely on States and local governments. If not for the well managed state government that we have in Iowa, we would be in trouble.
I have helped Iowa to be a well-led, fiscally conservative, good government state served by citizen-legislators. I need your help, financially, to keep our state a well-run and effective government. Our state and others like it are countering the inefficiency of Washington D.C. policies and programs that are hurting our country.
I saw illegal immigrants crossing the border but what scares me more is the immigrants coming from countries like China and Sweden. Why are they coming across our borders illegally. The answer is simple, they are criminals, and they cannot enter legally. It is because of this that Iowa enacted a law to deport illegal immigrants. We shouldn’t have to do this, but we will do what we must to protect our citizens.
Last year at the location where I viewed the border crisis, Texas law enforcement seized almost 28,000 pounds of fentanyl and it is estimated that is only 5 to 10 percent of the fentanyl that comes across the border. That amount, 28,000 pounds of fentanyl is powerful enough to kill 2/3 of the worlds population through overdoses.
To keep protecting our great state we need the resources to send conservative legislators and bring back the majority again next year and I need your help to do that. Please consider giving $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, or more this will keep me in Des Moines and keep Iowa moving in the right direction and help support others to do the same.
It’s a volunteer-driven grassroots campaign and my wife Cami and I will be honored to have you on our team…in whatever capacity you’d like to help.
Our campaign is powered by the contributions of conservatives who share my less-government, more-freedom, Iowans-know-best message. Your donation of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, or more will keep me in Des Moines and keep Iowa moving in the right direction.
Serving as your new State Representative…and having a leadership position as Speaker Pro-Tempore of the Iowa House, gives me the opportunity to bring our shared conservative Northwest Iowa values to Des Moines.
