Right to Life

Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.

How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?

Promises made should be promises kept. I support ensuring that those who have already paid in for Social Security benefits should be guaranteed their benefits. Any reform should impact younger generations and include more options on where to invest, including Health Savings Accounts. Then hard decisions need to be made on other unnecessary bloated budgetary items to be cut!
