Issues: Taxes
The current tax code of the country is a mess and needs to be overhauled. The 70,000 pages of tax code force businesses and individuals to spend more time worrying about tax compliance and less time innovating or creating jobs. Tax policy needs to be simpler and easier.
In Illinois I have seen firsthand that you cannot tax your way out of a budget hole. In fact higher taxes can often lead to less revenue. I will fight against all tax increases and work to lower taxes in order to foster growth and job creation.
