Milo Stevanovich is international attorney specializing in post-conflict economic reform and rule of law. He has led or advised on economic and legal system reform in Europe, Asia and the Middle East (including Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro, the Philippines, Armenia and Georgia). With law, accounting (CPA) and master's degrees (MPA from Harvard) he is better equipped to deal with an increasingly complex and competitive world and better equipped to handle future challenges that our nation will face. His resume includes international consultancies Booz Allen Hamilton and Deloitte and he is a licensed to practice law in the State of California. He understands the real impact and consequences of the complicated laws produced by Congress. He is the most qualified candidate to represent our interests in Washington.
  • I stand for low taxes and lean regulation for a strong, healthy economy and inclusive opportunity for all.
  • I stand for strong defense, enhanced security, technology, infrastructure and smart diplomacy keeping us safe from present and future threats.
  • I stand for keeping private healthcare, your choice of doctors, and speaking truth to socialism's false promises.
Fixing broken economies are what my international work was all about. I witnessed first-hand how bad government policies crush initiative and destroy the human spirit. I also saw how creating an enabling an environment of economic and cultural freedom empowers people to prosper and realize their dreams. Our basic guiding principles that so many countries seek to emulate are now at risk. I want to rebuild those principles to promote broad and inclusive economic prosperity and opportunity for all, to lift people up , to help them live their best lives and achieve their full potential.
I saw Lech Walensa lead the Solidarity movement in Warsaw, Poland in July 1989 and saw the Berlin Wall fall just months later. I admire how this humble man took on the the system and changed the world in the process. I tend to root for the underdog.
Competence, drive and principle. We need representatives to show up, physically and mentally, to come prepared, to be educated on the issues, and to understand the impact of what they are voting on to their district, their state and the entire country - whatever their philosophy or political party. These are the basics to ask of anyone who holds a public office.
One for certain is misuse of new technology. Cybersecurity/cyber resilience from nation-state attack and interference. Also, the future impact of AI (artificial intelligence) on the labor market and on society as a whole, just to name a few. We are only at the beginning of what these technologies can do and the effects are yet unknown.
I think that representatives should have to spent some time in the private sector to fully understand the impact of the laws they pass on businesses. They need to be connected to the people affected by their laws. Too much time in the legislature insulates them from the real world. For these reasons I believe there should be a term limit, however, with the possibility of returning to congress again after a certain period of time out of office. This would also provide others a chance to serve and would keep the institution fresh with new energy and ideas. It would also reduce corruption and prevent the entrenchment of a permanent political class.
