REDUCING STATE SPENDING

As Your State House Representative, I Will:

• Reduce Administrative Bureaucracy Instead of Frontline Services

  • consolidate overlapping state agencies,

  • reduce middle-management growth,

  • merge duplicative administrative offices,

  • centralize procurement and IT systems,

  • streamline reporting requirements.

• Cap Growth in State Spending

  • limit annual spending growth to inflation + population growth,

  • require supermajority approval for spending above the cap,

  • dedicate surplus revenue to pension debt or tax relief.

• Reform Higher Education System Overhead

  • consolidate administrative offices,

  • reduce non-instructional overhead,

  • share services between campuses,

  • focus funding on workforce-demand programs.

• Reduce Reliance on Outside Consultants

  • require competitive rebidding,

  • publish consultant spending publicly,

  • build more in-house expertise where cheaper.
