Policy Positions

Positions as of July 1, 2026, extracted from source websites.

Climate(1)

Expressed a general preference for planting more trees and flowers as a top priority if elected, without a detailed environmental policy stance.

Reported in coverage

"What would be your top priority if elected? To plant more trees and flowers."

Economy(1)

Supports allowing employers and health care plan sponsors to freely choose lower-cost pharmacy and health care options without government-mandated restrictions.

Reported in coverage

"Allowing employers to choose the health care and prescription drug coverage that works best for their business and their employees, giving patients more options to access their medication, and encouraging private competition in health care would help counteract cost increases."

Education(2)

Opposes funding private school vouchers through the Opportunity Scholarship program, citing opposition to taxation, though acknowledges value of school choice.

Reported in coverage

"Do you think the legislature should fund about $500 million for private school vouchers through the Opportunity Scholarship program? Why or why not? No. I don't believe in taxation, but I'm glad that there are choices other than public schools."

Supports pay raises for state employees, school staff, and teachers at least equal to the inflation rate.

Reported in coverage

"Tough question for a Libertarian, but everyone deserves a decent pay raise in exchange for their hard work. With inflation through the roof, getting a raise to make up for the inflation rate would be ideal."

Healthcare(1)

Opposes HB 246 (Pharmacy Benefits Manager bill), arguing it would increase prescription drug costs for patients and employers and represents harmful government overreach.

Reported in coverage

"HB 246, the Pharmacy Benefits Manager (PBM) bill, may seem obscure compared to other high-profile bills being considered this year, but make no mistake, it would increase prescription drug costs for North Carolina families and health care plan sponsors, including small businesses and large employers... This is why I vehemently oppose this bill and further government interference."
