February 5th Caucus in House District 65 A & B combined

Caucus!

If you live in the downtown St. Paul and West Side area remember to attend the Republican Caucus Tuesday February 5th 2008 6PM at Capitol Hill Magnet School 560 Concordia Ave St. Paul MN 55102. See http://www.fourthdistrictgop.com for the local Republican platform, agenda and other details.

If elected I will:

Encourage and vote for Pro-Marriage and Pro-Life legislation such as a Constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman.
See my discussions of this on http://www.e-democracy.org/, in the local forum on Minnesota issues.
Propose legislation to outlaw ALL Sanctuary City declarations.
Support Fred Thompson's idea of withholding federal funding to those cities that declare themselves sanctuary cities.
Support veterans and ensure they receive adequate benefits.
Reduce Property Taxes by supporting Initiatives and Referendums that cap property taxes.

Allow State agencies to implement Real ID mandates. See my previous entries on Real ID.

I am strongly Pro-Privacy especially in regard to any State and medical info such as the state info Secretary of State Mark Ritchie recently shared with his campaign committee.
Preserve the sanctity of marriage including it's definition as between a man and a woman.
Promote Free Market, Small Government Conservatism in our state and through out the world through Bush Trade Agreements.
Challenge government expansion and funding efforts that cite a Weather crisis that most scientists agree on. These efforts must be evaluated on merit.
Challenge conventional Democratic mantra that continued expansion of Medicare brings social, economic justice.
Challenge conventional Democratic mantra that continued expansion of government leads to prosperity.

Support our partner in Wind Power, Governor Richardson of New Mexico, in progressing in other areas as well such as building the federally approved wall on our southern border. Enforce existing law in workplace and at the border. Regain trust.
Instead of working to raise wages of noncitizens it would make as much sense to lower the minimum wage requirements for certain sectors such as family -owned farms for certain job positions. At least that benefits the American middle class.
