I think a legislator must be committed to doing a good job. In other words, he or she must be committed to serving the district faithfully, honestly and even courageously. In particular, special attention needs to focus on local issues and concerns. A legislator must craft legislation that will help move our state forward.

I would propose legislation for stronger laws on cellphone usage while driving. Millions of Americans are putting their own lives, their family's lives, and the lives of others, at an increased risk every time they get behind the wheel and use their cell phones. Using a cellphone in any capacity behind the wheel raises the chances that a driver will cause an accident. Sending text messages while driving is even riskier than using a phone to make calls while driving. Distractions account for between 20% and 30% of all traffic accidents, from minor fender-benders to accidents involving fatalities.

With all that we know about the dangers of texting while driving and self-control, it only makes sense that we consider laws that would ban cellphones from being visible altogether while one is driving. People could still talk on their phone while driving using a hands-free device (while this is still not as safe as driving completely undistracted, it is a lot safer than driving while using a cellphone with one's hands and eyes too).

It might take tens of thousands more deaths, and hundreds of thousands more injuries, before laws that prohibit cellphones from being visible while driving is considered. Although it will initially be difficult to enforce, we need strict laws banning all hand held cell phone calls, texting, social media or email checking while you are driving.
