Which issue matters to you the most?:

Taxes, Spending, and Debt

How does the issue affect you or your community personally? Tell us a story.:

Spending money to build a bus barn for school buses that are less than half full. The district spends $5.00 per mile for transportation. Insane. Make parents provide their own transport to/from school. The buses even pick up town kids that live less than 1/4 mile from school.

What's the one question you'd ask a politician about this issue?:

Should schools abandon transporting students?

What's the one question you wish a politician would ask YOU about this issue?:

How can we be laser sharp on spending?
