Protecting 2nd Amendment Rights

As an avid outdoorsman and hunter, the 2nd Amendment holds special significance to me. Owning and using a firearm is not just a privilege, it's a right enshrined in the U.S. Constitution by our Founders. With the 2nd Amendment under continuous attack, I believe we must stand up and protect the God-given right for law-abiding Americans to own, keep, and maintain firearms.

To me, the 2nd Amendment and the right to own arms is not up for debate. That's why I've received the endorsement of the NRA throughout my public service and maintain a 100% scorecard. 

Cutting Runaway Washington Spending

Runaway Washington spending is one of the greatest threats our nation faces, burying our children and grandchildren under mountains of debt. This is a bipartisan problem as both parties love to spend when they're in power.

In my view, our government should operate like a family at the kitchen table, spending only what we take in. I’ve cosponsored and voted for a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution that would force Congress to balance its budget each year and ensure our country isn't writing IOUs for future generations to pay.

Standing Up for Life

America has a long history of standing up for the vulnerable, and there isn't a group more vulnerable than the unborn. Protecting life is one of my utmost priorities, and that's why I have a 100% record with Ohio Right to Life.

I am proud to lead the SAVE Moms and Babies Act, which would prohibit the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) from approving labeling changes on abortion drugs, prevent the remote dispensing of these drugs, and prevent the FDA from approving any new chemical abortion drugs. I have also voted to defund Planned Parenthood, ensure no taxpayer funding goes to abortion, provide conscience protection for health care providers, and advance many other Pro-Life bills.

Securing the Border, Fixing Our Broken Immigration System

What makes America great is the belief in the rule of law and that we are all playing by the same set of rules. However, our broken immigration system has led to a country where millions are here illegally while those looking to come into the country legally must wait for years.

Having been to our southern border four times, I have witnessed the complete and utter humanitarian and national security crisis occurring there. For our borders to remain secure, we must end catch and release, cease exploitation of parole authority, reinstitute the Remain in Mexico program, expand expedited removal, and restart border protection enhancements, including the wall, which Border Patrol said would stop 95% of entries. If our nation can’t control who is coming into our country, then the other changes mean nothing. We also can't let cities and localities flout the law and refuse to carry out the laws of the land, also known as 'sanctuary cities.' It's time these sanctuary jurisdictions are ended, once and for all.

Securing our border is essential to stopping the flow of deadly fentanyl that continues to kill Americans. Most recent data shows fentanyl is responsible for killing over 73,000 Americans in just one year. 

Providing for the Common Defense

We have the world's greatest fighting force thanks to the outstanding men and women who volunteer to serve in our armed forces. With a world that is becoming increasingly dangerous, our military must have the resources they need to confront those who seek to do us harm. That list includes terrorist organizations and rogue states like North Korea and Iran.

In addition to ensuring our military is fully supported, we must take care of our veterans who have bravely served our country.That means fixing the VA and ensuring that the promises that were made to them are kept.

Making North America Energy Independent

I support North American energy independence and all-of-the-above energy policies. I supported the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline that President Biden canceled. I also supported Enbridge’s Line 5 Pipeline, which is essential to the lifeblood of the Midwest. I am proud the Nuclear Fuel Security Act, legislation I authored, was signed into law to expand safe, clean, and renewable nuclear power. I have also sponsored legislation for grid security and modernization.
