Issues
Campaign themes
Barnabei's website highlights the following campaign themes:[1]
Economy
- Excerpt:"We must continue our efforts to create a business climate that incentivizes entrepreneurs to open new businesses and makes the decision to keep operations in Michigan easy for business owners. We also need to provide more incentives to domestic companies that enable them to compete with the cheap labor overseas. "
Education
- Excerpt:"We need to ensure our children are ready for life after high school. We encourage them to go to college but do not discuss competitive interest rates on student loans or the types of financing available."
Budget/Spending
- Excerpt:"As State Representative, I will seek out and expose programs that are manipulated and do not help people help themselves. I will oppose legislation that creates government dependents’ and does not provide a clear path to self sustainability."
Pro-Life
- Excerpt:"As State Representative, I will always vote in favor of life and will do everything I can to be a voice for the unborn when the mother’s life is not in danger."
