In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“The government doesn't have a revenue problem. They have a spending problem.”
“Instead of transferring all this money to the jails and the prisons, we need to take some of that money and fund our mental health system”
“We're $1.5 billion in the hole, so it seems more that we have a spending problem rather than a taxing problem, because everybody's taxes are going up.”
“That, in itself, is super disheartening. I understand the need for lowering our recidivism rates. However, we need to do it responsibly.”
“That, in itself, is very heartbreaking because while the Legislature right now seems to be fighting for offenders that are in prison, nobody's talking about the victims that are offended, or that are victimized by the criminals.”
“You can get other points of view, and not hate each other.”

“I want to put it on the right track so at least people see that you can talk to other people.”
