Position Papers
Honoring our Veterans
Keeping America's promise to our nation's veterans means so much more than speeches on Memorial Day. It means fighting every day to fulfill promises on healthcare, benefits and recognition. Francine is fully committed to taking a leadership role in fully funding the VA, concurrent receipt, a 21st Century GI Bill and other proposals. It is un-American for our nation to allow our heroes in uniform to be left behind during any part of the legislative process.
Honesty and Iraq
An opponent of the war since it began, Francine believes it is the responsibility of the President and Congress to develop a clear exit strategy. She supports restoring basic security and subsequently removing our troops. She believes that the Iraq War is a distraction from the very serious threat of terrorism and that listening to military experts, not Washington politicians is the best way to fight the War on Terror.
A Healthy Environment
Francine Busby understands the need to protect our ocean, air, water, park, forests and beaches. The current leadership in Congress is leading us in the wrong direction by allowing oil drilling off the coast of California, loosening clean air and water protections, threatening our parks and preserves and commercially logging our National Forests instead of investing in fire prevention and thinning around our communities. In Congress, Francine would be committed to changing the course.
