Campaign themes
2012
Milner's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]
Public Education
- Excerpt: "If we want better student performance, we need reduced class sizes and more preparation for college and careers."
Jobs & the Economy
- Excerpt: "To the extent that the legislature can foster jobs and business, we must make every effort to put the unemployed back to work and give a kick-start to our state economy. In so doing, we will see increased revenues for the budget through economic growth."
Responsible Leadership
- Excerpt: "Many of our neighbors have grown tired of what we see on Capitol Hill today: message bills taking time away from important issues; back-room deals rather than transparent government; self-interested politicians instead of accountable leaders. I am running because I care about our neighbors, our children and the future of our great state."
