Economic Opportunity &
Local Businesses
As someone who's been working since I was 13 years old, I understand what it means to work hard for everything you have. Your family deserves an economy where hard work leads to stability, not just survival. Small businesses and local entrepreneurs create the jobs that keep our community strong, and the Adams County government should support their success.
I've watched my father's small business serve local families for years, competing against corporations with deeper pockets but less local investment. The county government should level the playing field, not tilt it toward whoever has the fanciest lobbyist. Working families and local entrepreneurs built this county.
When we support working families and local businesses, everyone benefits. We create communities where your hard work is rewarded, where local entrepreneurs can compete fairly, and where the next generation can build prosperous lives right here in Adams County.
