Who's going to be against making sure students have the education for a knowledge economy?

Who's going to be against getting workers the skills they need to be successful?

The harder you work the luckier you get.

I make it clear when asked where I stand on specific issues, and I'll continue to do that.

I'm not about change for the sake of change, but we should always be evaluating any initiative we're working on to see if we can do it better.

In Iowa it's a low cost of living, a short commute. Your money goes twice as far. There are so many opportunities that exist in our state and we need to do a better job of touting that.

Technology is impacting everything we do on a daily basis.

I am a firm believer that you can make a mistake but that shouldn't define you. Everybody deserves a second chance.

I just hope by how I live my life every day that people can see there is another side to addiction. You can live with it and have a successful life.
