I feel strongly that a government can run efficiently and effectively without severely taxing its citizens. Many times, taxes can go from the pockets of hard-working American citizens to squander in the unaccountable hands of government officials. Their appetite to grow government is unquenchable and I make it my business to be your backstop for needless spending. I know firsthand how much your paycheck means to you. I am committed and devoted to making sure you can keep as much of your money as possible. Tax cuts need a steady hand at the wheel. Along with that, taxes should not be something that average American citizens struggle to understand; I would work to simplify our tax code. A flatter tax with less loopholes is what we deserve. Of course, nobody likes taxes, but I think that policy guided by these conservative principles will be productive to the state of Arizona –by allowing us to spend our money how we want and when we want.
Border Security is one of the most important issues facing our state and country. This issue is complex and has multiple components: border Security, completely stopping the flow of drugs including fentanyl and clarifying the status of those living in our country illegally. First and foremost, every nation in the world has the right to defend its border. We must allocate the necessary resources to gain control of our southern border. Also, we need to expand visa access. Currently, there are limited legal mechanisms for individuals who are pursuing a job and a better life to come into the United States. Instead of illegally crossing the border, individuals should be incentivized to apply for a visa which will reduce illegal immigration.
A strong military is key to protecting the United States. We have a responsibility to those who have fought to protect our freedoms. Our veterans have sacrificed so much for this country. We must do all we can to ensure that these brave men and women, our American heroes, can continue to be productive members of our society when they return from active duty. That means treating PTSD and ensuring that families are cared for as these veterans rehabilitate. It is my responsibility to make sure that they are treated with the dignity and respect they so richly deserve.
The right to bear arms is an extremely import aspect of individual responsibility and freedom. We have the right to protect ourselves, our property, and our family. Responsible gun owners are vital to maintaining our freedoms. I believe, like our founding fathers, that the second amendment is vital to our national interests.
We achieve lower taxation by spurring economic development. Supply-side economics is not a dirty phrase – it grows our economy by making the pie bigger, not more expensive. Individual workers are our main source for economic development. They build, innovate, and pursue our economic goals that support the people and consumers who pay taxes.
