In recent years he had to deal with a mass shooting at an LDS church in Grand Blanc and he explains that in a number of ways out of chaos, he saw order emerge. A community came together from all different faiths and the LDS church showed forgiveness and even raised over $300,000 for the shooters special needs child. Seeing strong outcomes develop in challenging areas is not a new task for Chris. He talks about his G.H.O.S.T. program that combats human trafficking and his I.G.N.I.T.E. progran that focusies on education in prisons nd the successes that have been achieved. As Chris says, "what other profession has an app tracking how many are killed that year, in real time, at their job?" Being an underdog and challenging the norm is well within Chris' comfort zone and as he says, "underdogs make the best stories" Chris is focused on earning all votes by visiting people where they are all over the state so when the primary arrives on August 4th he is the candidate chosen to move on to November.
