Family / Social

In Cleveland County, we recognize that families, not federal agencies, are the building blocks of society. We respect the Constitution and the rule of law. We believe in the right to life, and we believe the unborn have an equal claim to that right as the born. We own guns for hunting, sport, and self-defense, and we are proud of that tradition. It is a tradition that we share with our Founding Fathers, who made gun ownership a constitutionally protected right.  Finally, we believe these rights are endowed by God, and it is by His grace and mercy that we are fortunate enough to call ourselves Americans and live in the great state of Oklahoma.

Looking at some of the policies coming out of Washington, it is easy to conclude that some lawmakers no longer see a need for these values, for families, for the Constitution, or even for God.

My faith, my family, and my love of freedom define me not just as a public servant, but as a person. No matter what happens in Washington, I promise you that Oklahoma will always be a place where these values are respected and honored.

It is my vision for our county to foster a vibrant and compassionate community that is truly civic-minded and thrives on the spirit of volunteerism. We envision a place where every individual recognizes their power to make a positive impact and actively engages in acts of service to uplift others and enhance the well-being of our community as a whole.

In Cleveland County, the value of civic responsibility is deeply ingrained, and residents eagerly contribute their time, skills, and resources to address the pressing needs and challenges we face. Volunteering becomes a way of life, an integral part of our identity as community members.

We aspire to create an environment where every individual’s talents are recognized and celebrated, fostering a sense of purpose and fulfillment through civic engagement. Cleveland County provides ample opportunities for people from all walks of life to contribute their unique skills, whether it be mentoring youth, caring for the elderly, supporting local nonprofits, or advocating for important causes.

We envision a community where collaboration and cooperation are the cornerstones of progress. Volunteers come together, united by a shared commitment to make our community a better place. Through strategic partnerships and collective action, we address systemic issues, promote social justice, and create sustainable solutions that leave a lasting impact.

By fostering a strong civic-mindedness and harnessing the power of volunteers, I envision our community as a beacon of hope, resilience, and compassion. Together, we create a legacy of service, inspiring future generations to continue the tradition of giving back and making a positive difference in the world.
