Party: R (state party candidate list) source ↗As of 2026-10-27
State issues
Property taxes & state budget
Examiner questionnaire (Budget): “Our deficit is not a revenue problem, it's a discipline problem. We promised Nebraskans income tax relief and property tax relief at the same time, without a plan to sustain both and now we're patching gaps instead of fixing the root cause. That's not how a household or a business budgets.”
Examiner questionnaire (Spending): “Essential constitutionally mandated functions of the government obviously must be preserved. I would look to create more efficiencies in government, which will protect the taxpayer and ensure better, more timely services.”
K-12 education / school choice

Abortion
No position found in sources checked
Sports betting/gaming & 2026 ballot measures (440/441/442)
Examiner questionnaire (2026 Ballot Questions): “I support legalizing and regulating online sports betting. This activity is already happening as tens of thousands of Nebraskans are crossing into Iowa or using out-of-state platforms, and that revenue is leaving our state instead of funding property tax relief here at home.”
Guns

Immigration

Agriculture, water & energy (OPPD/NPPD/NRDs)
Examiner questionnaire (Natural Resources/Data Centers): “Understandably, we are looking ahead at a future where data centers are a requirement, but nobody wants one in their back yard. I believe the Legislature needs to commission a study and examine ideal placement of these centers along with efficient resource management.”
Elections / voting
Examiner questionnaire (Ballot Measures): “Some Nebraskans say that the people are the second chamber, a partner to our Unicameral. However, our ballot initiative process predates our Unicameral and exists to give action to the voice of the people.”
