| Collapse all
- Cheaper Groceries. Higher Wages. Stronger Families.
- Brent understands how inflation has strained working families. He will fight to lower the cost of living by opposing inflationary tariffs, cracking down on corporate price gouging, and strengthening antitrust enforcement against monopolies.
Brent is committed to protecting the dignity of work through fair wages, retirement security, and stable incomes. He supports tax fairness by closing loopholes for billionaires and large corporations, while opposing tax increases on middle-class families.
Brent will also work to give Americans more control over their time by expanding access to remote work and ensuring productivity gains from AI translate into higher worker pay. - A general feeling our politics is corrupted undercut American confidence at home and tarnishes our reputation in the world. Brent worked as a fundraiser on statewide and Congressional campaigns and seen how fundraising has become the central focus of aspiring and elected leaders. This leads certain classes and special interests to have an outsized say in how our nation is governed. Brent supports capping individual campaign donations at no more than one percent of median household income and banning outside spending that drowns out the voices of district voters. He will also fight to outlaw partisan gerrymandering and ban insider trading by members of Congress.
Also, he is personally passionate about ensuring small businesses stay competitive and at the heart of the American economy. His grandfather brought stability to the family with a Texaco franchise and later a fabric shop. This ability to earn one's way by owning a business has been key to the Caldwell story and the American way of life and must be protected.
