I was born in Western Pennsylvania in 1972. Growing up in the rust belt, I experienced first-hand the effects of globalization and the even worse results of governmental intervention of putting band aids on symptoms rather than addressing the root cause. I never obtained a college degree or had a salary job. I am proud that I am just a regular guy that can relate to the majority of the population because I have experienced many of the same hardships and blessings as they have. I decided to run for Congress because I don't believe the people of District 12 are having their voices heard in Washington. What we see are issues in D.C. (inflation, injustice, anti-American sentiment, tyrannical regulations, private/public collusion) not being fought against, these issues are repeatedly getting votes of funding by the current representation.
  • No further Suspension of Congressional Budget and Impound Control Act (1974). Congress needs to reclaim their power of oversight and funding by refusing to pass any Continuing Resolution or Omnibus Package in lieu of the 12 Mandated Appropriations Bills.
  • Amendment of Constitution to define what constitutes Human Life.
  • An all-out effort on the Federal level to banish any relationship, with both private and public entities that foster the dogma of DEI or ESG or any form of Anti-American communistic philosophy.
Repeal of NFA 1934, Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act of 1968, Gun Control Act of 1968, 18 U.S. Code Chapter 44, FOPA of 1986 including House Amendment 777. ZERO Tolerance for 2A infringement.
The Anti-Communist Manifesto by Jesse Kelly available at jessekellybook.com
Knowing and being steadfast in your core principles and measuring every action you take against them. It is these principles that the people vote for and a faith that you will abide by them. With our opponents being so clearly against American ideals, there is no room for compromise.
The belief and application of Biblical principles such as counting the cost, individual freedom, steadfastness to convictions.
Decrease the role and size of the Federal Government wherever it is possible. Be actively searching for areas that can removed or replaced by the States. The unconstitutional areas of Federal expansion would be a good place to start.
Gas station lines under President Carter.
Pizza Delivery was my first W-2 job and I had it throughout High School.
The Anti-Communist Manifesto by Jesse Kelly available at jessekellybook.com
The U.S. House of Representatives possesses the power to appropriate money as a tool for oversight. They have failed in this for the last 25 years and instead have passed more than 125 Continuing Resolutions over that time period resulting in fully funding the Democrats agenda for a more powerful Federal Government and a larger influence on the culture. Much could have been avoided if Congress had the integrity to say "NO".
I imagine it makes it easier to navigate through the swamp but along with the familiarity of it, comes the inevitability of having some swamp on yourself.
Financial collapse like never before within the next decade.
Yes
I don't understand the desire for term limits. If people have representation they like, what gives others the right to say they have to change. On the other hand, If the voters in a district don't like their representative, they can simply vote them out. The issue is, citizens (especially Republicans) have a miserable turn-out for primary elections. The person termed-out will just be replaced with another inside guy that wins the primary with less than 25% turn-out. In the end, people get the government they deserve.
Thomas Massie, KY 4th
Perhaps with fellow Republicans but only from a position of strength. I have no intention of negotiating with individuals that believe in the murder of babies, weaponizing the DOJ, and using a virus to destroy countless American lives. Their objective is to destroy America. Their anti-Christian views are in direct opposition to my beliefs and there is no common ground. They have violated the trust of the American people and the world.

Homeland Security

Ways and Means
Although there could be great improvements in the ease of obtaining facts and figures directly from the federal government, a lot of data is available. It is basically the responsibility of citizens to fulfil their duty as being the ultimate authority in their government. The government works for the people. If the people don't hold their employees accountable, you can't expect great results.
