Issue Position: Fiscal Responsibility

Issue Position

President Obama and Washington politicians have spent recklessly and put us over $18 trillion in debt, including over a trillion in debt to China. Mike considers this a grave threat both to our economy and national security. It is immoral to jeopardize our children's future with debt they'll have to pay back due to the irresponsible policies of Washington politicians.

In Congress, Mike will fight for:

* A Balanced Budget Amendment to stop the reckless spending
* Zero-based budgeting so federal spending doesn't automatically increase every year
* Cuts to duplicative and wasteful spending
* Reforms to protect Social Security and Medicare as they are today for those at or near retirement while preserving them for future generations
* Audit the Federal Reserve
