Destructive agenda combined with political corruption. Open borders, lawlessness and spread of drugs, government waste and overspending, decline of agriculture and manufacturing, high taxes and inflation.
1- bring manufacturing back and encourage domestic business 2- overhaul of immigration system and tighten the border 3- overhaul of jail system to make it cost less 4- the law should apply to all, no one should be above the law
Vote by mail should include a fingerprint on the ballot
Immigration system needs complete overhaul
Hydrogen is the future of energy, but before we talk about our country, don’t forget that most of the pollution is coming from third world countries and China and mainly India
No abortion except to save the mother’s life
Our foreign policy is and has been for many years inconsistent, ill informed and destructive. The biggest so far is the Chinese control over Africa and South America

We need to restore integrity in our government. Our rights and freedoms are under attack, Inflation is hurting Americans financially, our foreign policy has the nation and world on edge, and our immigration policy is unsustainable and dangerous. When elected I promise to follow and protect our constitution, ill work towards a balanced budget and stop out of control spending, refuse to get entangled in more foreign wars without a plan for peace, and work with president Trump to secure our borders and repatriate everyone in this country illegally back where they came from.
Once we create a balanced budget, stop funding foreign wars, and get immigration under control, it will reduce inflation and create more jobs for American citizens with better wages.
I support same day voting on paper ballots with showing ID. Once that happens it will restore trust and integrity in our elections. More people will vote if they believe their vote counts. There isn’t a problem with voter access.
We need to secure the border full stop. Build the wall. Mass deportations of everyone illegally in this country. We must have a merit based immigration system and stop allowing our asylum policy to be abused.
I support having clean air and water and I know America has the best regulations to reflect that. I support leaving the Paris climate accord because other nations are not mandated to follow it. I believe science is manipulated to exaggerate the effects of climate change and I don’t support taxing Americans and restricting their gas appliances or cars or banning pizza ovens, plastic straws or bags.
Although I don’t like the laws in NJ on abortion, I agree with the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn roe/wade and leaving it up to the states to legislate based on their constituents beliefs
Our adversaries watch how weak our leadership is before they make military decisions. Joe bidens poor decisions make America weak. The way we left Afghanistan and giving billions to Iran and poor choice of words pertaining to Ukraine gave to green light to Putin to invade Ukraine and hamas to attack Israel. We need to go back to Trump foreign policies. Peace through strength

1. Money in politics - moneyed interests have unduly influenced our political parties, our politicians and the policies that govern us. We need to break the status quo, and make good ideas and effective communication more powerful than money in electing our representatives. 2. Tax reform - The biggest economic injustice perpetrated on Americans today is an unfair system of taxation. We need to repeal and replace it with a tax code that is simple, fair and effective. 3. Social Security - Social Security is on a path to insolvency. We need to not only preserve benefits for those that have paid into the system, but also improve Social Security for future generations. 4. Medicare-for-All - The American health care payment system is unfair and puts financial strains on ordinary Americans and far too many Americans are still uninsured. We need to make medical care available and affordable to all Americans in a way that is fiscally responsible and sustainable.
1. Ensure that Americans have access to quality education and vocational training programs that equip them with the skills needed to succeed in the workforce, including STEM education, apprenticeships and lifelong learning opportunities. 2. Support policies that promote fair wages including increases in the federal minimum wage and support for private unions. 3. Promote diversity and inclusion through reasonable initiatives that address systemic barriers to employment and promote equal opportunity for all individuals, regardless of race, gender or background. 4. Support small businesses and entrepreneurs by providing resources, access to capital, and regulatory support for start ups that drive innovation and job creation in local communities. 5. Support industrial policies that bring back to the U.S. manufacturing jobs that are critical to American national security and domestic supply chains.
1. Educating citizens about the electoral process, voting rights, and the importance of participation to empower them to engage more effectively. 2. Improving accessibility by extending early voting periods, mail-in voting options and accessible polling locations to make it easier to vote. 3. Ensuring election security by safeguarding against interference, fraud and hacking. 4. Addressing voter suppression by opposing voter ID laws, restrictive registration requirements and partisan gerrymandering. 5. Promoting transparency by providing accessible information about the election process, including how votes are counted and verified. 6. Encouraging civic engagement by supporting initiatives such as voter registration drives, community forums, and outreach programs to foster a culture of participation and trust in the democratic process
We need to find a balance among upholding the rule of law, promoting national security and recognizing the economic and humanitarian aspects of immigration. 1. We need to secure our border with increased border personnel and physical barriers where practical and effective. 2. We need to address loopholes in the asylum provisions of existing laws and increase the number of judges to process legitimate asylum seekers expeditiously. 3. We need to create a fair and achievable pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants already living and contributing to communities in the country. 4. We need to create better legal pathways to enter the country along with a merit-based system that considers factors such as skills, education, and work experience to attract and retain talent that benefits the economy.
1. Pursue policies that provide effective incentives, subsidies and investments to accelerate transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy and in clean energy infrastructure. 2. Conversely, to pursue reasonable policies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions from transportation, industry and agriculture, including carbon pricing, emission standards, and incentives for energy efficiency. 3. Promote public transportation, electric vehicles, and biking/walking infrastructure to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and decrease emissions. 4. Promote sustainable agricultural practices that reduce emissions, enhance soil health, and improve resilience to climate change impacts, while also ensuring food security and supporting rural economies. 5. Seek collaboration with other nations to address global climate challenges through fair international agreements, partnerships and initiatives.
I support codifying Roe v. Wade into federal law.
The biggest foreign policy challenge facing the U.S. is our complex relationship with China. Tensions over the sovereignty of Taiwan, global economic hegemony, international trade disputes, technological competition and human rights have escalated over the last decade and need to be effectively dealt with to avoid a large scale military conflict. 1. We need to pursue a multifaceted approach that combines diplomacy, strategic engagement, and cooperation on shared interest, while also firmly addressing areas of disagreement and competition. 2. We need to work with allies and partners in the Indo-Pacific region and beyond to coordinate policies, enhance deterrence, and promote shared values and interests vis-a vis China. 3. We need to foster military-to-military dialogue and confidence-building measures to reduce the risk of miscalculation, misunderstanding, and conflict in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait.
