The family is the nucleus of society. Strong and stable traditional families are not only critical to children’s well-being, they are also essential for sustaining self-government. I support policies and services that preserve and strengthen the traditional family unit and that promote the well-being and innocence of children and youth. Our children are our future. I support efforts to increase the availability of affordable housing and child care. I also support efforts to improve the education of our children whether in public schools or through school choice.
