Campaign website
Reilly's campaign website stated the following:
| “ |
Pro-Family The nuclear family is the basic building block of society, and it must be protected at all costs. As governor, I will implement pro-natal policies, and provide young families with a monthly stipend for every child under 18.
While American industry has been exported overseas, and Mega-Corporations like Amazon, threaten to replace their employees with robots; I will make sure that Idahoans aren’t exploited, and that one job is enough to earn a family wage.
Idaho’s future is in our children. I will ensure that the crime of abortion is never again committed in Idaho, and I will bring those responsible for committing the heinous acts to justice.
In a multi-polar world where the United States Dollar isn’t the only reserve currency, Bitcoin can provide Idahoans with a way to preserve their wealth by avoiding un-checked money printing and irresponsible Fed policy. I will abolish capital gains taxes, property taxes, and income taxes for Idahoans who use Bitcoin.
When I am elected governor, I will tax out of state companies (especially corporations with policies that infringe on medical freedom) at a higher rate than companies owned by Idahoans. Wal-Mart and Amazon should be prevented from destroying our main streets and our little mom & pop shops.
Human progress cannot come at the expense of sacrificing our morals. As governor, we will bring dignity back to Boise, and stamp out any policies that do not directly benefit Idahoans, or policies that compromise our Christian values.[2] |
