"I am a common sense, fiscal conservative who understands Loudoun's challenges. I have wide expertise and a record of finding practical solutions to tough problems."
"The most urgent problem facing Loudoun: controlling residential growth, government spending and debt, and keeping residential homeowner taxes at a reasonable level while funding excellent schools, providing for public safety, addressing increasing service expectations and removing traffic bottlenecks through completion of missing road links. This fiscal challenge must be met through a disciplined, program-by-program budget review, through belt-tightening in nonessential areas, through the creation of job and business opportunities that enhance the commercial tax base and by supporting comprehensive state tax reform so as to return more of our income tax dollars from Richmond."
