Education
Education is the foundation of opportunity in South Dakota. As a product of our public schools and a supporter of public education, Erin knows the value of great teachers and strong local schools.

role of government
Erin believes government works best when it knows its limits. She supports a limited, efficient government that protects individual freedoms, spends taxpayer dollars wisely, and stays focused on its core responsibilities. Erin knows South Dakotans don’t need more government in their lives — they need leaders who trust people to make their own decisions.

2nd amendment
Erin is a strong defender of the Second Amendment and the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. She believes law-abiding citizens have the right to protect themselves, their families, and their property. Erin will always stand with South Dakota’s hunters, sportsmen, and responsible gun owners — and she’ll fight any attempt to erode the freedoms that define who we are as Americans.
