- Finish President Trumps border wall! I want to address the urgent crisis at our southern border. The situation is out of control, with record numbers of illegal crossings, human trafficking, and drug smuggling threatening the safety and security of our country. As your Congressman, I will be committed to securing and protecting our southern border. We must take swift action to enforce our immigration laws, build a strong border wall, and support our law enforcement officers who are on the front lines of this crisis. The influx of illegal immigrants is straining our resources, endangering our communities, and undermining the rule of law. It is time to put America first and ensure that our border is secure and our nation is protected.
- National Debt crisis! I want to highlight the urgent and real dangers posed by our national debt. The current levels of debt are unsustainable and threaten the economic future of our country. The burden of this debt will be passed on to future generations, limiting their opportunities and stifling economic growth. I am committed to taking bold action to address this crisis and to ensure a stable and prosperous future for all Americans. We must prioritize fiscal responsibility, cut wasteful spending, and implement policies that promote economic growth and job creation. It is time to confront the dangers of our national debt head-on and to make the tough decisions necessary to secure a brighter future for future generations.
- I want to address the very real concerns surrounding the 2020 election. The evidence of widespread fraud and irregularities cannot be ignored, and it is clear that this election was stolen from the American people. As your candidate for Congress, I will fight tirelessly to ensure that every legal vote is counted and that the integrity of our elections is restored. We cannot allow our democracy to be undermined by those who seek to manipulate the system for their own gain. Together, we will stand up for truth, transparency, and the rule of law. I will not rest until justice is served and the will of the American people is upheld. Let's work together to ensure that our elections are free, fair, and secure. Make America Great Again!
