Platform priorities
- Artificial Intelligence for Good — Responsible AI that works for people, not against them. Smart innovation with common-sense guardrails.
- Affordable Homes and NO STRs — Owning, keeping and enjoying a home shouldn't be so hard. Extreme taxes, inflated insurance premiums and the influx of Short Term Rental investment properties have become a real problem for locals.
- Stronger Families, Smarter Kids — Parents, not bureaucrats, know what's best for their kids. Strong schools, real fitness, competitive sports programs for all ages.
- Sports Tourism That Powers Manatee — From IMG Academy and Pirates spring training to our beaches and public sports complexes, recreation fuels our local economy.
- Back the Badge & First Responders — Back our police, firefighters, EMTs, nurses and doctors.
- Community Matters More Than Ever — Responsible, accountable growth with the right infrastructure and real support for local people and small businesses.
