Campaign themes
Lamonte's website highlights the following campaign themes:[1]
Education
- Excerpt:"As your representative, I will fight to fully restore school funding so that all of our kids can get a fair shot at a good future."
Seniors
- Excerpt:"Our seniors shouldn’t have to decide between buying groceries, paying the heat bill or getting a needed prescription refilled. I will go to work in Lansing to get rid of this tax."
Middle-Class Taxes
- Excerpt:"These changes have left our families on the hook to pay for an enormous give-away to corporations, and that’s not fair. My priority in Lansing will be middle-class families, not corporate special interests."
Jobs
