Donna believes that the citizens of the 34th District deserves a legislator who will represent their views on the many important issues facing our state. She will represent their views by strongly opposing a state income tax, and by supporting efforts to reform wasteful spending. Here are some of Donna's statement about four important issues:

  • No State Income Tax in Tennessee!
    I will never support a state income tax, and furthermore, I will fight to reduce taxes every chance I get.
     
  • Reforming TennCare
    One of the biggest strains on Tennessee's budget is TennCare. I would start reforming TennCare by setting coverage limits, I would insist on generic drugs, I would remove felons and out-of-state residents from the rolls, and I would stop TennCare from being a secondary insurance when private insurance maxes out. No state sponsored healthcare program should be better than the average employee's private insurance plan.
     
  • Education in Tennessee
    As a legislator, I will insist that money going to education be spent at the classroom level, not spent on creating bigger administration, and bureaucracy. I will support alternative education, and any other program that returns education to teachers parents
     
  • Small Business in Tennessee
    The small business owner is the heart of our economy as well as our community, and is directly responsible for putting food on our tables. Small business pay more than their fair share of taxes, fees, and licenses, yet bear the brunt of every new government program. I will fight to preserve the right of small businesses, encourage them to be creative, and promote new industry. We must tell government to stay out of the pockets of small business owners because as they flourish, we will all flourish.
