We fought for policies that help families and small businesses succeed, and for lower taxes so people can keep more of what they earn. I’m grateful to my colleagues in the House Republican Caucus, and to colleagues on both sides of the aisle who worked with me to get things done.The voters have spoken, and I respect their decision. I wish Stacy Willoughby well as she takes on this responsibility. Serving this district is a serious job, and its people deserve our very best.My commitment to the 12th District doesn’t end with this term. I’m still concerned about where our state is headed, and the budget challenges ahead are real.My family and I are grateful to everyone who walked this road with us. It has been an honor to serve you. I’m excited to see what God has for me next."</div></body>
