15. Briefly list three (3) political or legislative issues of most concern to you, and explain why each is important to you.
Education- Being a teacher I find it imperative that we promote strong educational values in our country. Far too often children are deprived of a quality education because they live in a low socioeconomic area. Every child in America deserves a quality education regardless of their socioeconomic background Economy- Growing the economy and balancing the budget should be a top priority of our government. We have to take a hard look at foreign aid and reform our broken healthcare system Jobs- Putting Americans back to work is an important aspect of growing our economy. We have to invest in revamping America's infrastructure which will put Americans back to work.

Let me preface my statement by saying that it is a woman's choice but I don't believe any federal funds should be allocated to abortions.

I have a strong faith in the "Creator" that all human beings are loved regardless of their behavior and actions on this planet. I try shine my universal light on the world with every interaction I have with people on daily basis. Love cures all!
