Campaign themes

2016

The following issues were listed on Mauck's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

  • Taxes: I will fight to lower taxes for the lower 99%. Your taxes are too high and we've burdened the lower 99% for too long in this country. I will fight each day for tax reform in office!
  • Economy: I will fight for economic change each day in Congress. Where is the voice to improve our economy in Congress? It's not there! Who's fighting to improve our economy in Congress? Not our current leadership! Tax reform and changes to help our economy will be my top 2 items to fight for!
  • Education: I will fight for affordable college. Student loan debt is out of control. We need to reform the interest rate paid on student loans and the cost of higher education.
  • Healthcare: The Affordable Care Act has not made healthcare affordable. I will fight for reform to reduce the cost of your healthcare. The cost is out of control! There are items in the ACA that we need to keep and changes that must be made. I will work with both sides to make these changes.
