On hedging bets

I prefer campaigning by focusing on what I need to do to get our message out by running on my own record as opposed to worrying about what others are doing. This blog is a 4 year record of ideas, conversation, positions and accomplishments.

However, I will briefly comment on someone else potentially getting into the race because I’ve been asked what it means since it’s been reported by the paper. The Morning Call this week posted that incumbent Ryan Mackenzie is apparently “hedging his election bet” (their words) and circulating petitions for both the 134th and the #PA15 Congressional seat.

I understand what he’s doing, but find it unfortunate someone sees representing us in Harrisburg as a backup plan if their more ambitious one doesn’t work out. No matter what he decides to do, it doesn’t change things for me. I am in this race to win and represent my hometown. To solve the problems that career politicians for whatever reasons have not been able or are unwilling to do.

5 essential State Government reforms

I believe in term limits and I love being a small business owner, so I have no desire to become a career politician. (I will reject any state pension, lavish perks and per diems) I want the chance to serve and take my record of results to Harrisburg to improve our district and the state. Together in Lower Macungie we enacted residential property tax relief that lowered residential tax bills, we preserved farmland and open space, we reduced yearly spending, we proactively planned for our future and we made our local government the most transparent in the region. I delivered here and I know can do the same in Harrisburg.
