Campaign website

Boebert's campaign website stated the following:

“

America First. I work for you. Not special interests. Not Washington, DC. Just you!
I’ll always vote for a strong national defense, better care for our Veterans, stronger trade agreements and to keep the promises we’ve made to our seniors. No Green New Deal, no more DC power grabs, always what’s right for Colorado.

Constitution and Bill of Rights. My job is to secure your rights and defend the Constitution as it is written.
I won’t let them take away our guns. I’ll always stand up for freedom of speech. I’m against judges who legislate from the bench. I’m against the national popular vote; Colorado’s voice matters and we can’t give that away to California.

Limited Government. An entrenched federal bureaucracy with over 2 million federal employees who earn more and receive better benefits than Main Street is far from what our founders envisioned.
Term limits for all politicians, not just the good ones. Cap federal civilian pay and benefits to private sector levels. Give more authority to the President to take on the Deep State by firing those in the executive branch not implementing his policies.

Free Markets. Free and fair markets work when we let them.
Fewer over-reaching regulations and more competition will deliver better outcomes. Healthcare should be personal and portable with transparent and competitive pricing. Veterans should have a private-sector option, too!

Life. I believe life begins at conception.
Planned Parenthood can go fund themselves. They should never receive a dime of our federal tax dollars.

Liberty. Attacks on our personal freedom must stop.
I will never vote to give away our personal freedom to socialists, globalists or other left-wing lunatics. Watch out AOC and the Squad, here I come!

Strong Borders. A country without borders is not a country at all.
We must enforce our current immigration laws, put a stop to sanctuary cities and build the wall.

Energy. Energy independence is critical to our national defense and economic security.
I support an all-of-the-above strategy where the government does not choose winners and losers. Drill baby, drill! Add new nuclear technology to the mix as a clean and efficient energy source.

Fiscal Responsibility. The federal government doesn’t have a revenue problem, it has a spending problem.
We don’t need tax increases. I will introduce and vote for a Balanced Budget Amendment every year I serve in Congress.

School Choice. Charter schools work. School choice works. Local decision making is better.
Parents know better than bureaucrats. There shouldn’t even be a federal Department of Education.

Leadership. I am a strong conservative with principles that I will always stand up for.
I’ll hold myself accountable and you can, too. I can be reached at Lauren@LaurenforColorado.com. ^[4]
