- Better Education - Our K-12 education system needs to be focused on the needs of children who are there to learn, not the adults who are paid to work in the system by our tax dollars. We must stand up to the unions and educational bureaucracies that are the obstacle to reform. We must break down barriers to improve access, choice and innovation in education. We can no longer condemn thousands of poor and minority school children who are trapped in failing schools to what is often little more than a pipeline to prison. Parents and students should have choices in where they go to school and taxpayer dollars for education should follow the child.
- Stronger Economy - The key to a stronger economy is responsible budget and tax policy. We can't continue to sustain a government that grows faster than the economy. We have to establish real budget priorities and a competitive tax system. We must break down tax and regulatory barriers that restrict economic growth, business development, quality job creation and real wage growth. An open, more competitive marketplace is the only way to attract businesses, foster new business and promote business expansion.
- Budget & Taxes - Reducing wasteful spending and streamline bloated government agencies rather than raising revenue through new taxes, ensuring that the state “lives within its means.”
- Government Transparency & Accountability - Continuing to improve ethics laws regarding transparency for elected officials and candidates for office, and fight for accountability at every level of government.
- Education Funding and Accountability - Continuing to support higher education in Louisiana, while also pushing to hold our state universities and educators accountable for our hard earned tax money they receive.
- Conservative Values - Fight to protect all innocent life, the 2nd amendment rights of all Louisianans and the Rights of the State to determine our own future.
