THE IMPORTANT ISSUES

My stances on the issues facing Americans today


MASS MIGRATION

Mass immigration has become a political weapon over the last few decades. Entire nations are granted never ending “Temporary Protected Status” and millions of people from dangerous and unstable Third World countries are allowed to flood into America. They are given social benefits and housing, with many defrauding the government for billions as we just saw with the Somali community in Minnesota. Undocumented immigrants should not be allowed to collect any federal resources or social services, and we must amend the Immigration Act to remove TPS for entire nations. This mass immigration from the Third World into America has had disastrous results and it must come to an end.

DEPORTATIONS

Under Joe Biden and the Democrats, an estimated 20 million undocumented migrants entered the US illegally. Thanks to the efforts of the Trump Administration, this was quickly shut down and our Southern border was secured. Since Trump took office, an estimated 3 million illegals have self-deported or were forcefully deported. This is a great start but there is still much to be done. We must keep ICE fully funded and provide our brave men and women in law enforcement with the support they need to keep the American people safe.

FRAUD

Since the Trump administration has taken office, the amount of fraud that has been revealed has been staggering. In California alone the amount was in the billions of dollars. In Minnesota, it simply took a young man named Nick Shirley to knock on the door of a daycare that was receiving millions in State funding and ask one simple question: Where are the kids? Since then, over 90 people have been indicted and prosecuted. Democrat run states seem to not do any basic due diligence when it comes to making sure operations are legitimate before cutting them million dollar checks. It seems that defrauding the Federal Government in the name of climate change, the homeless, hungry children, etc. has become a major industry. Enough.



COST OF LIVING

Under President Trump's leadership, inflation is down from a high of almost 9% under Joe Biden to under 3% today, and gas prices are also on the way down. However, due to the policy here in Washington State, our gas prices are still too high. Washington is the 9th most expensive state in America to live in. The cost of housing in Washington is 50% higher than the national average, while the cost of healthcare is 15% higher. Patty Murray has presented no plans to actually lower the cost of living for Americans and instead proposes more of the same failed tax the rich and give the money to the poor government policy that has led us to where we are today. .

ELECTION SECURITY

Passing the SAVE Act must be a priority for the new US Senate in 2028. Making sure that only those who are U.S. citizens can vote in Federal elections isn't controversial, it's common sense. I have provided a simple path to passing the SAVE Act by adding covering the cost of getting ID or the proper documentation needed to participate in elections to the VRA. That ties it directly to the budget so it can be passed with a simple majority vote. Almost 80% of Americans agree that you should have to provide some kind of proof of citizenship to vote in elections like a Voter ID. Congress should also take further steps to codify Trump's USPS Executive Order into federal law so the next President cannot undo it.

LAWFARE

Over the course of President Trump's first and second term it has become clear that the lower courts have been packed with politically motivated bad actors. Democrats cherry pick activist judges in places like Seattle and Boston to get favorable rulings in cases where legal standing is questionable at best. They abuse their legal authority to issue nationwide injunctions on Presidential executive orders when the Supreme Court has repeatedly said they have no legal authority to do so. This takes up limited bandwidth of the SCOTUS and gives judges veto power over Presidential executive orders.



THE 2ND AMENDMENT

I am a fierce advocate for protecting and restoring our second amendment rights to the original historical scope and meaning. After the game changing Bruen ruling handed down by a Trump SCOTUS gun rights organizations are winning cases all over the country. Finally SCOTUS has agreed to hear a case deciding if Semi automatic rifles are protected by the Second Amendment. My stance is that ALL ARMS are protected by the plain text of the Second Amendment and that only conduct that is found to be dangerous and unusual in society today can be found out of the scope of protection of the 2A.
Many victories have been won but much work remains to be done. Thanks to my and others push to create a new 2A division within the Civil Rights Division of the DOJ combined with the Trump teams ability to listen, for the first time in American history the DOJ is suing states for violating the 2A rights of Americans. This is unprecedented and the Trump administration has been the best in American history when it comes to preserving the second amendment rights of Americans. However this can change with a new administration. This is why congress needs to take bold action and make this office permanent. I am already getting things done before I am even in office. I am proud to have an A rating from Gun Owners of America and I will work to repeal the NFA and relegate the ATF to a civil enforcement agency only.
