Defense and National Security

I believe Congress must provide our military with the resources it needs to be the best equipped and the best trained in the world.

Economy

I am committed to allowing the private sector to flourish and, consequently, for our national economy to recover.

Education

I am committed to providing Oklahoma parents and teachers with tools necessary to provide a world class education to our children.

Energy

There are steps we need to implement over time to change the way we use energy and reduce our use of some types of carbon-based fuels.

Veterans

I believe it is our responsibility to use our resources to make Veterans' lives and the lives of their families more comfortable.

Native Americans

I am committed to serving the Native Americans living in Oklahoma and across the United States.

Protecting Our Neighbors

I am committed to your family and to your neighbor's family.

Securing Our Nation's Borders

It must be a top priority for our nation to secure our borders and stop the flood of illegal immigration.

Seniors

I am very committed to addressing the challenges facing Social Security and in protecting it for current workers, as well as future retirees.

Strengthening Rural America

Rural communities are the cornerstone to a solid future for Oklahoma, and it is vital that their individual needs are met.
