Campaign themes
2014
Mazurek's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
Common Core
- Excerpt: "Any policy that inhibits creativity and input from the students and teachers of our schools will have a small chance of success. I believe the Common Core Standards should be paused, until we are more certain they are helping our students, and allow for more input or at least more time for our teachers to implement an effective process."
SAFE Act
- Excerpt: "I don’t believe the SAFE Act is good legislation. It’s small impact on public safety, does not compensate for the infringement upon law abiding, tax paying gun owners. Many aspects of the law are confusing to even the law enforcement community, let alone the general public. Although the law may be difficult to repeal, it is my hope that the most oppressive portions of the bill can be altered."
