Expand all | Collapse all

My name is Michael Hubbard. I am christian, a husband and a father. I am a college graduate, a US Navy Submarine veteran, and a former police officer.
  • Secure the United States border and deport illegal immigrants. In 2023 each and every taxpayer paid over $1100 dollars to support illegal immigration. Veterans, children and the elderly are being evicted from schools and apartment complex’s to be funded at taxpayer expense. Our schools are overwhelmed by the students flooding them. Many speaking languages that have no trained educators to facilitate instruction. The cost of each of these students is overwhelming school districts who are not give. A choice to educate hundreds or thousands of children overwhelming the budgets of rural towns and counties. The borders of our country are sovereign territory and must be strong!
  • Limit congressional terms. Our congressional members have been in power for too long. We need to limit our congressional terms to return our members to governing. Is this law good for the people of the United States? Or am I voting on the bill because a lobbyist is gonna give me stock options on the company who is going to make the biggest profit if this legislation passes. Congressional terms should not exceed 10 years for the house and 3 terms in the senate. Congressional representatives wed to know that their positions are limited and therefor they will act in a manner that is in the besr interests of “we the people” its time to take back our government.
  • We need to take back our educational systems! Our children need to be taught to read, write (including cursive), math, science, and history. Our schools don’t need to be educating children on what gender they think they are. Our culture may have men and women who have made other decisions. But children whose brains do not stop developing until they are in their mid 20’s. Our schools should not be allowing Kevin to call himself (invert girl name) and keeping that information from their parents! Children should not be empowered to change their gender at taxpayer expense. The schools also need to return to a grading system that will educate children on dealing with disappointment when they are in kidergarten and can learn about expectations!
Balancing the federal budget and cutting wasteful spending, taxes and regulations that are smothering our businesses. We
Must harvest our oil and natural gas which will decrease shipping and transporting costs restoring our economy and our businesses! The use of wind and solar energy is a fantastic subsidy for our electrical system. If cannot replace the efficiency and low cost of fossil fuels. None of the predicted devastating effects of climate extremists have come true in the since the first earth day in 1970. We had computer models during Covid stating many more people would die. Computer models are only as good as the data that is entered into them. Legislation of green energy is bankrupting our country! It’s not science is chaos!
I look up to President Ronald Regan, and President Doland Trump. Both men were excellent presidents who acted within the Constitution and the laws of the nation. I’m sickened by President Biden’s failure to secure our border, I disgusted by his flagrant violation forcing the citizens of this nation to pay the student loans through taxpayer money dispute the supreme courts decision stating it was unlawful for him to do so! I am as a veteran deeply troubled by the current presidents war on fossil fuels which has bankrupted many businesses and led to a disastrous economy for our country. Under President trump we were energy independent and selling excess oil to boost our economic growth. We are a nation of rails, seas, roads, and planes. If the costs to move people, goods and services rises. The available goods and services are directly effected to the loss of buisness to their manufacturers and suppliers!
“Common sense, the rights of man, and other essential writings” by Thomas Paine. The United States constitution, and The Holy Bible.
Say what you mean and follow through on your campaign promises.
I am honest dependable and follow through with my actions!
Put the needs of the constituents over personal gain or monetary rewards!
Term limits, secure borders, restoration of oil production, improved schools and lower taxes!
The resignation of President Richard Nixon, and his succession by Gerald Ford! The first president not nationally elected to hold the office. I was 5 or six years old!
I worked at a place call the Type house and called off sick when I was not. I was terminated! Lesson learned don’t lie to your employer!
The holy Bible. There is nothing new under the son. It shows all people are sinners and have their inner deamons. I should say sinners and have their issues with sin! But all in all it shows that the world is far better for you if you believe in Jesus!
Harry Potter
I can only imagine!
Relationships. I’ve been married 4 times. I will not go into detail of why I have relationship troubles in public. The problem is a personal issue and so I will keep it to myself.
Each of our house member represents 700000 United States citizens. Each member serves a two year term. As a member of the House of Representatives I will work each and every day to cut regulations, taxes, balance our federal deficit, cut wasteful spending and restore the freedoms garunteed by the bill of rights and the constitution of the United States of America!
No! Over 65% do not have previous government experience!
Reining in out of control spending, paying down the national debt and regaining a government that works for the people and not a government that trough regulation and taxation seeks to control the people!
Yes, and I have already discussed my views on congressional term limits!
Yes I agree we need term limits. I would say no more than Six Two year terms in the house and or Three Six year terms in the senate. Once completed you cannot run for the house or senate again. If you do three terms in the senate you don’t get to go for 12 years in the house your done. If you do 12 years in the senate your done. You don’t get to go in the house for 12
Years. The obvious bias and influence of long term government congressional office holding can plainly be seen in the insider trading of Nancy Pelosi, and the influence and power abused daily by President Joe Biden! Our government leaders must be chosen differently. We must work harder in our states to cultivate honest hard working people to write and vote on our laws.
Aberham Lincoln!
While working as a truck driver I meet many people. It makes me cry when I ask a 30’s clerk to sign my invoice and they print their names in illegible script because they were not taught cursive. I recently spoke with two teachers from south bend public schools. They told me the superintendent of schools has instituted a program where

By the students are automatically advanced to the next grade if they complete two of the three school trimesters. The same teachers advised me that they cannot in the third trimester of the school year have a final exam. I was informed that even if the did because of the superintendents policy. If the kids failed the final exam but passed the earlier two semesters they would graduate or advance to the next grade. I the. Observed billboards in south bend celebrating the 83% graduation rate of bend public schools. From my understand of math south bend school students only have to do 2/3 of the work to complete the year. I am curious if their employers in the future will keep

Them on if they only do 2/3 of the work their fellow employees are performing. Why are South bend public schools failing to properly educate students and then posting on billboards their success of high graduation rates. It’s fraudulent and unfair to the students of the school system! Our education system is in terrible condition and need to be fixed! We have a responsibility as members of our community to see our children get the best education and not some slick “work around” that clearly sends students out into the world unprepared for their futures!
Hickory dickery dock the mouse ran up the clock. The clock struck two and the others escaped with minor injuries!’
I don’t believe that any Democrat has ever compromised for their position. Tax, tax, tax, and regulate, regulate, regulate. We the people want to be able to choose where to live, what to drive, choose a gas or electric vehicle or appliance. We choose to send our children to schools that will educate them to understand why the United States of America is the land of the free and home of the brave. Hundreds of thousands of patriots have lost their lives to protect and defend our life and freedoms. I don’t feel like our government is doing anything now other than trying to pressure and control all aspects of our lives. Government is supposed to protect and defend you. Government is not supposed to regulate and control you.
Some programs are full of waste and fraud and need to be scrapped. No government can spend itself out of debt. Just as no responsible household would continue to run up credit cards with no way to pay them off! I say we cut up the card and only pay for what we need. It’s time for the Us government to tighten its fiscal belt!
Ensure federally run and financed operation are filing appropriate paperwork on time and doing only the tasks allowed by law in the legislation funding them. If you not doing your job correctly and effectively you loose funding! National defense and the welfare of our citizens are our first priority as members!
None
I would be interested in the judicial comittie or a committee that dealt with the military and veterans affairs.
The election of Representatives to our government is the time for “we the people” to hold our government officials accountable. If your “incumbent, Senator, congressman, counsel member, mayor or any public official is not fulfilling the duties to which they are elected. It is time to replace them. Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aide of our country. Members of Congress or of any public office who fail to act, make public statements about acts and then pass laws contrary to the needs of the people they represent must be removed!
