- ENERGY INDEPENDENCE + TECHNOLOGY : Nevada's new energy infrastructure plan opened federal lands to renewable energy plants and energy storage facilities, prime for Bitcoin mining’s energy demand to fund the development of strong renewable energy infrastructure, leading to energy independence, high paying jobs, and lucrative tax revenue.
- ECONOMY + FINANCE : The Federal Government needs to reduce debt and financial dependency on private banks and corporations, recognize deflationary Bitcoin as legal tender, and invest in productive areas of society that create wealth, like research and development, innovation, manufacturing, small businesses, and entrepreneurs thus producing more jobs, competition, and better living standards.
- BORDER CRISIS + DRUG/SEX/GUN TRAFFICKING : Nevada is a major distribution hub for illicit drugs and has the highest rate of sex trafficking in the United States, including child prostitution. US gun dealers sell over 250,000 guns per year to Mexican drug mafias and Central American gangs, whom migrants are fleeing. Quenching corruption at the border requires Mexico–US cooperation.

The core responsibilities of a congressperson are being accessible and attentive to all their constituents, not just the people who voted for them, and focusing on enacting good policy rather than reelection.
I had my very first job at 12 years old. For 3 years I was a computer programmer developing software for startups and small businesses.
Living with Asperger's has been both a struggle and a gift. It's given me extraordinary abilities to contribute to society while learning to navigate a world of disability discrimination. I'm stronger for it.
The U.S. House of Representatives has the ability to introduce bills, form committees to exchange knowledge and ideas, control how tax-payer dollars are spent, and mold the future of younger generations.
