Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Investing in Our People: Simply raising taxes or cutting spending does not solve our economic problems. We need BETTER spending that invests in our people.

America's Competitive Advantages: Yes, we should protect manufacturing and other critical industries, but we should also focus on our natural strengths. Agriculture and Healthcare are examples of foundational competitive advantages that can, and should, lead the United States into the future. We must make intelligent investments to ensure that American agriculture remains a cornerstone of our economy and a source of prosperity for generations to come. And we must also use America’s growing need for quality healthcare to build assets that strengthen our healthcare industry and make us more valuable to the entire world.

North American Production: North America should not compete alone; we should grow together into a leading force in global markets.

Justin James (R)

I will help to continue the America First movement and make it known that Mississippi will no longer be viewed last. Mississippi values will be brought to the forefront. Mississippi will progress. America will move forward.

Mississippi's economic growth and its earnings should be more readily available to rural areas, so that those areas can also benefit economically.

America was built on hard work, dedication, and conservative values. I will work tirelessly to help guide America back to its roots.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

1. Achieving economic sustainability for America

2. Maintaining America's global competitive position 3. Investments in Agriculture and Rural Communities 4. Regenerative Farming and Soil Health 5. Healthcare Access & Affordability 6. Improving Trade and Foreign Policy Relationships with both Allies and Rivals 7. Grassroots Democracy and Voter Participation in Mississippi

8. Establishing a new, viable direction for the Democratic Party

Justin James (R)

Areas that I am very passionate about are Education, Public Health, and National Security. Other policy I have interests in are AI Regulation, Economic Development, and Social Policy.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Realism, a pursuit of objective truth, and as much honesty as possible.

Justin James (R)

There are several characteristics that are important to possess. Someone elected to office must possess integrity, honesty, accountability, commitment to public interest, and respect for the rule of law. Responsiveness, effectiveness, courage, and resilience are also very important.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Congressional leaders should utilize a policy framework that is general enough to work for various constituencies across America. They should then build coalitions in Washington DC around those policy frameworks to help get resources to the respective State and Local Officials who can strategically execute on a more granular level.

Justin James (R)

The primary responsibility for this office is representing and advocating for constituents. Other key responsibilities are introducing common sense laws, originating revenue bills, developing policy, and above all else, community outreach.

What legacy would you like to leave?

Justin James (R)

I want to be known as someone who did everything possible to meet the needs of and provide for the community and help better the lives of the people.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Bill Clinton's reelection in 1996, I was 6 years old.

Justin James (R)

The first major historical event I remember is Hurricane Katrina. I was only four years old at the time, but I remember how people came together and united. Watching people care for and help others that they had never met before has always stuck with me.

What is your favorite book? Why?

Justin James (R)

My favorite book is 'The Stand' by Stephen King. The book has incredible levels of relatability, as it explores realistic behavior. The novel features a diverse cast of characters with compelling flaws, making the characters feel more like real world individuals. The novel contains themes of societal breakdown, battles of good versus evil, and themes of resilience and faith.

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

The very short terms force representatives to be more responsive to the will and sentiment of the people, at least in theory.

Justin James (R)

The U.S. House of Representatives has a large size, short election cycles, and specific, exclusive powers that make it unique. It is the chamber most directly and intimately connected to the will of the American people. The governing process becomes more efficient with the emphasis on majority rule. Proportional representation containing seats allocated to each state based on population makes the house the only federal institution that truly reflects the country's proportional demographics. The short two-year election cycle makes the House highly responsive to shifts in public opinion and political priorities. The House's exclusive powers add to its uniqueness. With the power to initiate revenue bills, the chamber has significant influence over federal fiscal policy and appropriations. The House has the sole authority to initiate impeachment before a trial begins, meaning it is the only institution with that power. In the event that no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes in a presidential election, the House is responsible for electing the President. All of these thongs and more make the House a unique, intriguing, and appealing institution.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Yes, experience can be a tremendous asset and I will develop relationships with fellow representatives and staff members to help accelerate my learning curve as a freshman lawmaker. However, experience can also expose weaknesses and become a liability. For example, if an incumbent has presided over the same problem for a long time, they may have experience dealing with the problem, but their approach is likely ineffective.

Justin James (R)

I believe that experience is helpful, but it's not always beneficial. After holding the office and being around policy constantly can actually hinder the response to events or activities happening out in the world, especially those involving the younger generation. Sometimes, younger and less policy experienced individuals are more beneficial to government because they are often times more immersed in what's going on in society.

What do you perceive to be the United States’ greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Competing constructively in a multipolar world while simultaneously addressing economic sustainability issues domestically

Justin James (R)

There are several. Federal debt and spending are the biggest challenges faced by the United States. We have to work to lower those numbers quickly and efficiently. Healthcare costs are through the roof. Political polarization is growing and creating a bigger partisan divide in the United States. We have to work diligently to unite our people. Housing costs continue to rise. The rapid development of artificial intelligence and potential threats to cybersecurity are areas that must be managed more directly. The shift toward globalization and its impact on jobs must be studied. While creating economic benefits, too many jobs are being lost, and incomes are being wiped away. We must work to bring back jobs to the people of the United States.

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

Justin James (R)

In some way, yes. In others, no. Two-year terms increase accountability and prevent detachment, but often times, too much time is spent campaigning rather than governing. Two-year terms allow for adapting to political shifts, but can discourage long-term policy solutions, increase lobbyist influence, and create inefficient lawmaking.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

Justin James (R)

I support term limits on members of Congress. Spending decades in one office, especially those not doing the job the people selected them for, and continuing to collect paychecks is not only wrong, but in a way, it's immoral. A President is limited to a set number of terms. Congressional offices should be limited also.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

No, I believe we should study and learn from history, but I am focused on just being myself.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Michael Chiaradio (D)

Yes, and I hope for more bipartisanship, but compromise is also necessary within a political party.

Justin James (R)

Compromise is crucial to pluralistic democratic republic such as the United States, but that compromise is not always necessary or desirable. An overreliance on compromise can lead to gridlock or result in sacrificing core principles in policy. Compromise is often necessary as a practical tool for achieving pragmatism over idealism when ideal solutions are not feasible, as well as when it comes to checks and balances. Compromise is not necessarily desirable when debating fundamental principles as compromising on certain moral issues or core values may be viewed in lights other than pragmatic. Compromise is not desirable in campaign markets where political opponents focus on each other rather than actually governing the people, as shameful as it may be. All in all, it comes to the need for stability versus the need for change. Even though there may be disagreements, compromise promotes stability and provides a mechanism for resolution.

The Constitution says that all bills for raising revenue must originate in the House. What role would this power play in your priorities if elected?

Justin James (R)

This allows for the opportunity to initiate and push legislation to lower federal tax rates for individuals and businesses. It also becomes a critical tool for enforcing fiscal conservatism. I would utilize origination to ensure that the initial legislative language reflects conservative values and that the debate centers on the priorities of the House majority.

How should the U.S. House use its investigative powers?

Justin James (R)

The House should continue to investigate corporate and institutional policies related to Environmental, Social, and Governance, as well Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion policies in place, particularly those in place at public universities. In addition to this, the House should continue conducting oversight of social media companies regarding alleged censorship of conservative viewpoints, data security practices, and foreign influence. Other investigative practices should include focusing on prescription drug pricing, price transparency, and even investigations into private companies that receive federal funding.

What role should the United States government have in the development or use of artificial intelligence?

Justin James (R)

Elected officials in the U.S. government should primarily allow state and local bodies to determine the best means to utilize and oversee artificial intelligence, emphasizing responsible use aligned with state policies and values. That being said, artificial intelligence should be heavily studied in regards to its applications, risks, and policy recommendations for state use. There should be a focus on the U.S. being a global leader in the development and use of artificial intelligence, as well as a focus on studying the potential threats posed to data and cybersecurity.

What legislation would you enact related to election administration in the United States?

Justin James (R)

I would enact more stringent photo ID requirements for in-person voting or absentee ballot applications. I would push for states to reduce early voting periods and require mail-in ballots to be received by Election Day. I would push for states to collect documentary proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a passport or birth certificate, for all new and updated voter registrations. I would also push to ban private funding for election administration. I would also push for states to require photo ID for both in-person and mail-in voting, restrict the use of drop boxes, and ban same-day voter registration
