Campaign themes
2014
Novak's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[3]
Conservative Values
- Excerpt: "I am 100% pro-life and 100% pro traditional family."
Job Creation
- Excerpt: "I will work to strengthen Texas business-friendly climate with less government regulation and building up Texas most valuable natural resource – our human capital! How we lead ontransportation, water and education will impact our future economy. I will provide the leadership to fix our problems and make Texas stronger!"
Transportation
- Excerpt: "We need real transportation leadership and solutions, now. Just like the legislature did with water in the last session, we are going to need an “all hands on deck” approach to solve this problem. We need to wipe the slate clean, put all options on the table and create real, fiscally responsible, long-term funding solutions without tolling existing roads."
Limited Government
- Excerpt: "I’m a small government, pro-life conservative who stands firm on states’ rights. You can count on me to fight to keep Obamacare out of Texas and protect our borders. It’s time to hold the federal government accountable and quit messing with Texas."
Gun Rights
- Excerpt: "I enjoy the occasional deer or dove hunt, and I stand with my fellow responsible gun owners as an advocate for our 2nd Amendment rights. As a candidate for public office, I'm proud to be "A" rated by the National Rifle Association and Texas State Rifle Association."
