Position Papers
Our Open Office
Perhaps the most important responsibility of a congress is accountability which is why I present a novel-yet-simple idea called "Our Open Office." Offering you the ability to have a public voice in the government, to debate, comment, and criticize on every House floor bill. You can submit new bills, summon me to an "On-Demand" town hall, and read my monthly reports where I will be accountable to you and inform you not only HOW I voted but more importantly WHY I voted.
Jobs
Governments do not create jobs, only people do. To cure the unemployment problem, all that must be done is to stop the government interventions that discourage employment with harmful tax, labor, and regulatory laws in the first place. The only barrier preventing our society from succeeding in fixing the unemployment problem is the separation of the state's harmful interventions from the economy.
Bailouts & Corporatism
The bailouts and stimulus plans served to benefit the government's favorite corporations at the expense of every individual in America. Whether it is the military-industrial complex, Big Oil, Big Pharm, Big Ag, or the financial firms who bankroll their Establishment politicians into power, the crony corporatism and revolving door between the Treasury Department, the FED and Wall Street must end.
