Campaign Central
I am honored to have been able to spend the past two years serving the people of District 8 in the South Dakota House of Representatives. I look forward to taking on the responsibility of being your voice in the South Dakota Senate. As a lifelong resident of South Dakota, I am excited for the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of all South Dakotans.
I plan to continue to work for the people of District 8 regardless of party affiliation. I am aware more than anyone that to serve only the interests of a few and not base my decisions on what is best for all District 8 residents is not the positive impact I want to have as your Senator.
I am dedicated to keeping our young people in South Dakota by ensuring they receive the best possible education and find high-paying quality jobs upon graduation. I am committed to economic development for our industries, small towns and farmers.
As I have said in the past, I appreciate your support. I know that by working together, we can make South Dakota an even better place to live. I look forward to serving you and value your input and ideas as we move forward.
