Submitted Biography:  "Alan Swain is a proven and dedicated servant leader, and he's officially running as the Republican candidate to be a voice for all who reside in North Carolina's Second Congressional District. Alan is a proud resident of Raleigh. He spent most of his life serving our nation, and is a 26 year retired disabled Army veteran. Alan is married and has 3 daughters and 3 grandchildren. Altogether, I want to make a difference for Wake County and, like you, am frustrated and disappointed with the Congressional gridlock and lack of bipartisan effort in Washington D.C. Never ending impeachment proceedings rather than doing the work that is needed for the American people on key issues such as improving Healthcare and transportation Infrastructure, reducing growing Crime and illegal Drugs, steps to improve Education, and long overdue Comprehensive Immigration Reform is hindering progress. My campaign platform is completely centered around making a positive change and improvement for Wake County! I will be a Wake County Republican. If a law does not improve or show positive change for Wake County, I will not vote affirmatively. I am #WAKESTRONG... ALL FOR WAKE, WAKE FOR AL!"

Candidate Connection

Alan Swain completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Swain's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.

Expand all | Collapse all

Alan Swain was born in Yokohama, Japan and is a retired United States Army Colonel, serving 26 years. He earned an undergraduate degree from The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina in 1976. He graduated with Masters from Embry–Riddle Aeronautical University, Auburn University, and Army War College. Swain's career experience includes commanding soldiers at all levels, AH-1 and AH-64 Attack helicopter pilot, 2 tours at the Pentagon, served 2 Presidents at the White House, achieved the master aviator badge, test pilot skills with the U.S. Army and was a successful small business owner. He has been affiliated with the following organizations:

• Association of Citadel Men (life member) • Association of the United States Army (life member) • Army Aviation Association of America (life member) • Military Officer Association of America (life member) • National Rifle Association (life member) • Veterans of Foreign Wars (life member) • American Legion (life member)

  • Inflation-Economy-National Debt. For 3 years Americans have been suffering from 18+% inflation. The cost of groceries, energy, housing, fuel are not sustainable. I commit to a balanced budget; zero-based budgeting; cut Federal spending; no more Continuing Resolutions (CR); stop Democrat tax hikes; make permanent the 2017 individual tax rates; halt federal taxing of social security entitlements; regain energy independence/dominance; and halt BIDENOMICs. Like Mr. Biden, I too support MAGAnomics.
  • US immigration allows 1.1M to legally emigrate annually. Allowing 8.5M undocumented to enter over the last 3 years is not acceptable. Failure to secure our national borders is a national security failure by Mr Biden. I will work to build a physical and technology wall; restore Remain in Mexico policy, end sanctuary city funding; halt catch and release and change to catch and deport; increase CBP agents; increase immigration judges (3 year backlog is unacceptable); and work for immigration reform
  • Public Safety is on the ballot. I fully suport funding law enforcement. Criminals must be held accountable. Our judicial system must enforce current laws. Allowing repeat violent offenders release on no cash bail is a detriment to Rule of Law. We must halt woke Das for not following the law and allowing criminals to skirt the law. We must help the mentally ill. I support increasing mental health institutions to perform needed evaluations; and Comprehensive health systems needed to identify individuals of concern. Drugs and human trafficking are out of control due to lax border security which is impacting our national security. We must close our borders and increase punishment of drug and human trafficking crimes.
I believe in the American Dream. The American Dream was rooted in our Declaration of Independence, stating that all men are created equal with the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This idea that every citizen of the United States has the equal opportunity to achieve his or her success and prosperity based on hard work, determination, and initiative. We as Americans value the ideals of democracy, limited government, personal rights, liberty, opportunity, and equality. America has developed an upwardly mobile society where one generation can do better financially than the last with the aid of hard work and perseverance. Efforts by the Biden Administration to push for diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is antithetical to our core founding principles. We as a nation must ensure that America remains the land of opportunity that allows the possibility of upward mobility, freedom and equality for people of all classes who work hard and have the will to succeed. We should be promoting success based on merit and not mediocrity. All Americans should have an equal opportunity and we should not allow equity to stray us from our American dream path.

The House has been successful in investigating the Biden Administration in 2023-24. This oversight has been very beneficial in making the Administration more transparent in their actions.

“

PUBLIC SAFETY
Back the Blue! As one of Alan’s top priorities, he wants to build a safer Second District for everyone. He supports fully funding law enforcement; press Woke District Attorneys to enforce the law; to help the mentally ill; and fight drug and human trafficking. Alan fully realizes that building a safer Second District is key to making our district a better place for everyone.

EDUCATION
Alan fully supports parental rights; advocates school choice for all students; will protect Title IX for female rights and the use of separate bathroom/dressing rooms based on biological sex; and will fight to halt CRT and DEI initiatives. Alan supports abolishing the Department of Education.

ECONOMY
Alan advocates for a balanced budget; zero based budgeting; regular order (12 appropriations bills); no Continuing Resolutions; He will cut federal spending to work to reduce our growing national debt; stop Democrat tax hikes, make permanent 2017 individual tax rates, halt federal taxing social security; regain energy independence/dominance; fight inflation; and halt Bidenomics. We need to return the USA to a net exporter of oil products and as the World’s largest oil producer.

TERM LIMITS
Alan fully supports term limits and will work to sponsor House legislation for term limits advocating for a maximum of 3-5 terms. Alan believes we must return to the vision of our Forefathers to return to ‘citizen-statesman’, serve one’s district and return back to respective states after serving.

VETERANCARE SUPPORT
Alan will fight to improve healthcare options to needy veterans and will fight for a more streamlined VA claims process.

BORDER SECURITY/IMMIGRATION
Alan supports immigration reform to create a system that embraces the values and importance of immigration while also respecting the rule of law. Alan wants to complete the build of a physical and technology wall; to restore the Remain in Mexico policy; halt catch and release; end sanctuary city funding; push for immigration reform; and improve the work visa program.

MILITARY-FOREIGN POLICY
Alan advocates for Peace thru Strength and to increase funding to rebuild our military. Alan will work tirelessly to help remedy failing foreign policy issues of the Biden Administration. No more Afghanistan debacles and failures; challenge China and work to hold the Chinese accountable for spreading the corona virus, the balloon overflight of the US and their saber rattling in the Taiwanese straits; and to counter Russian interventions.

EXECUTIVE BRANCH OVERSIGHT
Alan fully supports GOP control of Congress; House Oversight, Judicial and Ways and Means Committees have uncovered massive corruption.

HEALTHCARE
Alan wants to work to improve healthcare throughout the district, specifically by protecting Medicare/Medicaid, reducing the price of prescription drugs, reducing the abuse and waste within the system, and working for block grants to help the state and district improve healthcare.

LIFE
Alan believes in the sanctity of all human life. In office, Alan will remain true to his pro-life stance to work to protect the rights of both the born and unborn. He supports the US Supreme Courts Dobb’s decision.

ENVIRONMENT
Realizing the benefits it could create for the Second District, Alan is determined to using conservative, free-market approaches to lower our carbon footprint, we can make CD2 a cleaner place for all to enjoy while adding jobs to the workforce.

SECOND AMENDMENT
Alan proudly supports our Second Amendment. In Washington, Alan will fight to ensure that the Constitutional rights of our citizens to bear arms are not infringed upon.[3]
