Campaign themes

Castonguay's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[3]

Education

  • Excerpt: "Every child should have access and the ability to get a college or trade school education. Whether they choose to go to college is their choice, but our public schools should have the funding to educate every child with this priority."

Respect and dignity for our elderly

  • Excerpt: " Our elderly are depending on us for their future, the ability to live comfortably and have proper medical care available."

The environment and how it effects all of us

  • Excerpt: "I will not allow further rollbacks of our environmental laws and push to reinstate those the previous legislature pushed through."

Every person in this state should have the right to earn a livable wage

  • Excerpt: " I will push for job innovation, research and development, local business assistance, and agricultural education so we all can live comfortably and not worry about heat and where our children’s next meal will come from."
