Campaign website
Chiddick's campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
Education There’s a saying... “As goes the family so goes the nation” and it’s never been more true than now. The attack on families is more pertinent than it’s ever been. Parents are being shamed because they’re trying to make the best decisions for their children. There has been power removed from the parent and placed in the hands of school boards, super intendants, principles and teachers and it is not right. I stand for parents having the choice to do what’s best for their kids. Parents have the right to hold their local education system accountable to anything that goes against the well-being of their child. When we change a family, we will change a city. When we change a city, we will change a county. When we change a county we will change a state. When we change a state, we will change a nation. It starts with building a strong family unit and removing anybody and everybody who only want to bring harm and destruction to it.
Small businesses are the backbone of our nation. The Biden Administration will admit the same thing, but then send billions overseas to hurting nations, instead of sending that money to help support the businesses that were destroyed during the unlawful lockdowns. Government, in their words, will tell you they care about you and your business, but by their actions, will show you the opposite. Small businesses create independence and the freedom to choose, two things we have seen most recently, that big government doesn’t want. We must remove anybody in power who wants to block anyone’s ability to have “The American Dream.” The reason so many people flock to this land is because of the ability to create their destiny and leave a legacy for their families. I’m standing to maintain that dream.
The United States Military is the greatest military on the planet. I served in the US Navy from 2002-2006. When you decide to join the military, you pledge to support and defend the constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic. Everyone understands that if it comes to it, you’re willing to give your life for your country and the people living in it. The people in the military are the most unselfish people you could meet. They deserve our appreciation, honor, and respect. If you look at the pay scale of enlisted military personnel, you see how little we appreciate the people who pay the most. As those appointed to hold political office, we must have an awareness of how our military is being looked after. From how much our active military is being paid, to the resources available to our veterans, retired and disabled, we must have an understanding of how we are taking care of those who defend our freedoms.[2] |
