Issue Position: Debt and Taxes

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2016
Issues: Taxes Government Budget and Spending

Americans are taxed too much. I am proud to be endorsed by the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association for my steadfast opposition to higher taxes and support for Proposition 13.

The debt is a spending problem, not a tax problem. I voted to move forward with a 10-year balanced budget resolution that forces Washington to live within its means. The budget provides for a strong national defense, repeals Obamacare in full, strengthens and protects Medicare and Social Security for our seniors, and most importantly, balances in ten years without putting a single cent on the backs of taxpayers.

I reject Washington's status quo of more spending and more debt. I voted to cut more than $5 trillion in federal spending and eliminate government inefficiencies and waste.
