Supports increasing the homestead exemption, but believes that to eliminate property taxes, there must be a focus on "compressing" taxes and limiting county spending.

Believes Dallas County lacks Republican representation in its court, saying, "As a lifelong Conservative Republican, I will be your watchdog providing transparency and accountability to a court that we deserve to have."

Opposes County Commissioners Court issuing vaccine and mask mandates and closing businesses.

Opposes "woke policies" of diversity, equity, and inclusion, as well as environmental, social, and governance criteria being rewarded in the marketplace and "Marxist" critical race theory being taught in the classroom.

Said, "I would not defund the police. Instead, I would increase funds to the budget, hire more officers, provide them with better training and increase their pay."

Opposes child abuse policies such as gender reassignment surgery for minors and abortion.

Wants to repair Dallas' current infrastructure to meet its growing service needs.
