Welcome to my Congressional Campaign Website.

I am running to represent Alabama’s 5th Congressional District and carry on a proud tradition of effective service and common sense leadership in Washington.  In North Alabama, we care deeply about faith and family, but we are tired of partisan politics in our nation’s capital.  The time for results and action is now.  I am running because I believe my experience will bring a new voice to Congress and new ideas to reduce the cost of health care, increase investment in our children’s education, and continue the support of key federal programs across North Alabama.

North Alabama and America are at a crossroads.  Locally, we need to continue to secure national support for our Army, NASA, and TVA programs.  We have major needs for new roads, infrastructure, and additional facilities at our universities and community colleges.  Nationally, we need to address the rising cost of health care, our dependence on expensive foreign oil, and an immigration policy that is not working.  In Washington, I will focus on these issues and work for action and not more partisan political games. We need real, common sense solutions, and we need them now.

I hope you will explore the rest of my website and consider joining my campaign. If you have a suggestion or a question, then you and I should exchange ideas.  When I was practicing medicine, I understood that I didn’t have all the answers.  However, I am confident that by working together we can find practical solutions that ensure America remains the leader of our global community.
