Comments
"I have not heard from people across the district that this is a priority issue. I don't believe that the average conservative Republican primary voter in Henderson County is ready for the full-on legalization of marijuana. If I'm going door to door over the next five months and I find out otherwise, we can revisit it." (10/18/17)
