2016

The following issues were listed on Laschober's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“	New Supreme Court Justice? Not in 2016: On this subject, however, the U.S. Constitution couldn’t be much clearer: If the Senate gives its advice and consent to whomever the president nominates, then the president can appoint him. But the Constitution is silent as to whether the Senate is required to act on the president’s nominations, “timely,” or otherwise. And this is not a ‘bug’ in the Constitution, as evidenced by the fact the Framers rejected an alternative approach which would have forced the Senate to reject a president’s nominee or see that person appointed automatically within a prescribed number of days. Omnibus Appropriations Bill Not Worthy: The simple answer is ‘no’ – I would not have voted for the final version of the 2016 Omnibus Appropriations Bill as the Senate did on December 16, 2015. The Left is Unfit to Lead the Gun Debate: What I’m not prepared to do is throw the U.S. Constitution under the bus every single time something bad happens in this country. In terms of clarity and meaning, the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights ends in four of the clearest words in the Constitution, “…shall not be infringed.” No amount of word manipulation, lecturing or lies from the so-called “leaders” in the Democratic Party will change this. Cadillac Tax to Hit Oregon Hard: There’s a looming hole in the 2017-19 biennium budget, and the alarm has been sounded. Whether anyone is listening is another matter. I applaud Rep. Julie Parrish (R-Tualatin/West Linn) and chief co-sponsor Sen. Betsy Johnson (D-Scappoose) for their efforts to craft and promote HB 3564, a bill to enable public entities avoid the “Cadillac tax” which takes effect in 2018 as a result of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. I Pledge Allegiance: I Pledge… to protect the United States from external threats. Without secure borders there is no sovereign nation and there is no liberty.	”
