Meet Josh
I’m not running for Congress, I’m running to reform Congress.
I’m a 4th generation rancher. I’m a committed Christian, husband, father and I’ve operated a small heavy equipment and trucking business. I grew up learning the value of hard work while cleaning horse stalls, breaking colts, and hauling square bales. I served as state president of the Oklahoma FFA Association and graduated from OSU. I was fortunate to serve Sen. Tom Coburn as his Field Representative to Southeastern OK. My wife Kacie and I live with our four children on our ranch in southern Oklahoma.
I self-term-limited in the Oklahoma State Senate, where I stood strong against tax increases, debt, and wasteful spending and I led the fight against Common Core in our schools. Like my mentor, Dr. Coburn, I am determined to prioritize principle over politics. I don’t play political games. I confront them. Winning elections means nothing if we lose our nation.
We the People must demand virtue in D.C. again. We can restore our nation, but only if we elect leaders who practice self-restraint over selfish gain and value character over careerism. We need promise keepers, not power seekers.
Members of the House are responsible for introducing and voting on federal legislation, representing the interests of their constituents, and providing oversight of the executive branch. Key powers include drafting bills, serving on committees, approving the federal budget, and voting on matters of national policy, including declarations of war and presidential impeachments.
