Jobs and the Economy I will continue to work with small businesses, community groups, faith leaders, and schools to map out a comprehensive plan for how we bring more jobs and opportunity to the people of Speedway, Wayne Township and Clermont. I believe in helping small businesses create good-paying jobs that support hard-working families, and in ensuring taxes are fair for everyone. Education I am committed to fully-funding our public schools and giving teachers the respect they deserve. We must make certain that our schools fully prepare students of all ages for our future workforce through common sense measures and by listening to the concerns and ideas of students, parents, and educators. Public Safety I believe our churches, police, educational, and other community leaders must work together to prevent future crime and deter criminal activity. I will continue to work tirelessly on bipartisan efforts to support those who keep us safe.[2] |

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
