What are the biggest issues facing your constituency now:
To answer this, let me explain what my focus in Congress will be:
Create a level playing field for Americans who receive the benefit of Workmen's Compensation, mandatory health insurance, retirement benefits, taxes, OSHA, EPA etc. and calculate that into the cost of the products manufactured so that any foreign country not providing the same benefits to their employees would have to pay a tariff on their imported products to equal that amount.
Support a bill that calls for a single subject on all spending bills.
Oppose unconstitutional spending in the form of corporate subsidies.
Oppose unconstitutional spending in the area of education so that "No (every) Child Left Behind" is abolished.
Hold the Federal Reserve to account for their corruption of the dollar which has driven up the price of everything way beyond what any normal person can even consider affording!
