16. Briefly list three (3) political or legislative issues of most concern to you, and explain why each is important to you.
1. We MUST REPEAL ObamaCare. Let’s work together and find free market-based and patient-centered solutions that will increase accessibility, lower costs and promote cutting-edge research that save, improve and enhance lives without raising taxes, rationing care or increasing government control. 2. I oppose amnesty for illegal immigrants. America must protect and secure its borders to ensure the financial and personal safety of all Americans. 3.Washington’s solution to rising unemployment rates has been more spending and higher taxes. The result has been the expansion our federal government, at the expense of jobs in the private sector. Only by cutting taxes and getting the government off the backs of small business owners and Oklahoma families will our economy grow.
