I am the Family Man. My objective, and overwhelming motivation in this political pursuit, is protecting, preserving and providing for our families. Currently we are attending Chino Valley Community Church. I am the co-founder of the San Bernardino County Patriots and the co-creator of the Tri-County Sheriff’s Forum. As a husband and a father with many good friends, I feel truly blessed to have the opportunity to be a Representative for some of the most wonderful people I’ve ever met. Through the years I have been a coach, a crossing guard for my kids, a Booster President, Ways and Means Chairman and a deacon at my church. Professionally, I have been a writer, an actor, a director, a producer, an editor and a marketing director.
As possibly the greatest nation in the history of the world, it is only natural that we are a beacon of freedom and asylum to the rest of the world. We recognize the God-given rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness that all men (and women) possess. And we embrace those rights in faith, hope and love… and the greatest of these is love. Therefore, the greatest initial act of love we can show families seeking entry into our great country is safe passage through a protected port of entry. We must build the wall. It is an essential element of our National defense and has been a high priority request by law enforcement at all levels. For decades, politicians on both sides of the aisle wanted it, applauded it… until our President actually started building it. Then it somehow became immoral and racist.
In strategic terms, the wall is a “force multiplier” allowing fewer officers to patrol a given area and allowing additional assets to be deployed more effectively in other areas. The wall is one piece of a defensive network our law enforcement has been begging for. When the security of our Nation resides in the hands of a few brave men and women, how can we not provide them with the very best especially when they are our first and best line of defense against drug smuggling and human trafficking?
We are a nation of immigrants… legal immigrants. Just as anyone seeking to enter your house must have permission, we, as a nation, have the right and responsibility to demand that anyone seeking to enter the United States use our designated ports of entry. Otherwise, its a violation of the rules of “our house”, and it’s an affront to the many immigrants who do so legally.
