What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

David Flippo (R)

Second Amendment Rights

As a combat veteran and conservative, I believe the right to keep and bear arms is fundamental to freedom. I will oppose any attempt to restrict the Second Amendment and always defend the rights of law-abiding Americans to protect themselves, their families, and their communities.

Parental Rights in Education

Parents, not the federal government, should guide their children’s education. I will work to return control to parents and local communities, ensure schools focus on core skills, and keep political agendas out of classrooms. Transparency and respect for parental decisions are essential to preparing the next generation for success.

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

David Flippo (R)

The most important qualities for an elected official are integrity, service, and moral courage. Integrity means keeping your word and standing firm in your principles. Service means putting the people first and remembering that elected office is a duty, not a privilege. Moral courage means doing what is right, even when it is unpopular, and standing strong against pressure from special interests or political elites.

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

David Flippo (R)

I believe the core responsibility of a Member of Congress is accountability. The people send their representatives to Washington to be their voice, and that trust cannot be taken lightly. Every decision I make will be with the understanding that I answer directly to the voters of my district, not to party bosses, lobbyists, or special interests. Accountability means transparency, keeping my word, and ensuring my record reflects the will and best interests of the people I serve.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

David Flippo (R)

My very first job was at McDonald’s, where I started as a cook, then became a cashier, and eventually worked up to assistant night manager while putting myself through college. I worked there for a few years, and it taught me the value of hard work, reliability, teamwork, and customer service: lessons that have stayed with me throughout my life.

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

David Flippo (R)

What matters most is character, integrity, and a proven ability to lead. My 24 years in the Air Force prepared me to make tough decisions, manage large teams, and stay mission-focused under pressure. I commanded thousands of Airmen in combat, oversaw complex operations, and carried the responsibility of lives and national security. That experience taught me service, accountability, and results matter more than political titles. My military and business background gives me the tools to serve effectively without being tied to the failures of Washington politics.

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

David Flippo (R)

I believe the greatest challenges facing the United States over the next decade are economic stability, national security, crime, and border security.

On the economic front, families are being squeezed by inflation, high interest rates, and reckless federal spending. If we fail to restore fiscal discipline and strengthen small businesses, future generations will inherit an economy that cannot sustain American prosperity. A secure border is also an economic issue, since illegal immigration strains schools, healthcare, and public resources while hurting American workers.

National security remains a critical challenge. As a combat veteran and former Air Force commander, I know America must project strength to deter aggression from adversaries like China, Russia, and Iran. But we cannot separate national security from border security. An open border invites cartels, traffickers, and even potential terrorists to exploit our weaknesses. Securing the border is essential to protecting our nation.

Crime has also become a crisis in too many communities. Lenient prosecutors, anti-police policies, and weak leadership have emboldened criminals and undermined public safety. At the same time, the flow of drugs and human trafficking across the southern border is fueling crime and addiction in every state.

America needs an immigration policy that works—one that secures the border, enforces the law, and ensures those who come here do so legally and safely. Without strong borders, a healthy economy, and a robust national defense, our nation’s future is at risk.

These challenges are connected. An unchecked border drives crime, burdens the economy, and threatens national security. Meeting them head-on is essential if America is to remain strong, prosperous, and free.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

David Flippo (R)

I believe Congress should have term limits. Too many politicians treat elected office as a career instead of a duty, and that weakens accountability to the people. Term limits would help restore trust by making sure Congress is filled with citizen legislators, not lifelong insiders. That is why I signed the U.S. Term Limits pledge. This pledge is a commitment to support legislation and a constitutional amendment that would impose term limits on Members of Congress. The American people deserve a government that serves them, not one run by entrenched political elites.

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

David Flippo (R)

I admire Newt Gingrich for his vision and leadership, and I would look to model my service in Congress on the principles he championed through the Contract with America. That agenda was bold, specific, and rooted in accountability. It focused on balancing the budget, cutting taxes, reforming welfare, strengthening national defense, and cracking down on crime. Gingrich showed that Congress could offer the American people a clear conservative plan and then deliver on it.

What stands out about Gingrich is that he combined conviction with action. He did not just talk about conservative values: he laid out a concrete roadmap and held Congress accountable to it. That kind of leadership is sorely needed again today.

Like Gingrich, I believe in giving voters more than promises. We need a clear, principled agenda for the next decade that tackles our greatest challenges: restoring fiscal responsibility, reducing crime, securing the border, strengthening national security, and protecting constitutional rights. The Contract with America proved that when leaders set a vision, stand on principle, and are willing to fight for it, real change is possible. That is the example I want to follow in Congress.

Both sitting representatives and candidates for office hear many personal stories from the residents of their district. Is there a story that you’ve heard that you found particularly touching, memorable, or impactful?

David Flippo (R)

One of the most impactful stories I have heard came from Dave Crete and his work on The Invisible Enemy. He shared the stories of thousands of military personnel who served on the Nevada Test and Training Range and were exposed to toxic radiation from decades of nuclear weapons testing. Many of these men and women have suffered or died from related illnesses, yet their service and sacrifice remain largely unacknowledged.

The mission of his orgnaization The Invisible Enemy is clear: to secure legislation that provides comprehensive medical treatment and just financial compensation for those who served, and for the families who have carried the burden of their sacrifice. I was deeply moved by the courage of these veterans and the injustice they have faced. They were sent into harm’s way, not just in combat but through toxic exposure, and now they have been left behind by the very government they served.

As a combat veteran myself, I understand the meaning of service and sacrifice. I also know that America must never turn its back on those who put on the uniform. The story of The Invisible Enemy is more than history: it is a call to action. Congress has a responsibility to acknowledge what happened, to bring transparency, and to ensure that these veterans and their families receive the care and compensation they deserve.

Meeting with Dave Crete reminded me that service is not just about defending our nation abroad. It is also about defending our veterans here at home. This is an issue I am committed to raising in Congress, because no one who risked their life for this country should ever be treated as if they do not exist.

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

David Flippo (R)

My principles as a conservative, a veteran, and a Christian are non-negotiable. But I also recognize that effective leadership requires choosing battles wisely and working with others where agreement is possible. The American people expect results, not gridlock. If we can make progress on lowering costs, strengthening national security, or securing the border by working across the aisle, we should do it. Compromise should never mean surrendering our convictions, but it can mean taking steps forward for the good of the country. My goal in Congress will be to fight for our values while advancing practical solutions that improve the lives of the people I represent.

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?

David Flippo (R)

The Constitution gives the House of Representatives the power to originate all bills that raise revenue, and I view that responsibility as one of the most important tools Congress has to hold government accountable. If elected, I would use that power to fight for fiscal discipline, reduce wasteful spending, and ensure taxpayer dollars are treated with the same care families use to balance their own budgets.

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

David Flippo (R)

The House has the duty to investigate and hold government accountable. That means rooting out fraud, waste, and abuse in every agency and making sure taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly.

We must also confront how government has been weaponized against conservatives, President Trump, and the American people. No agency should be beyond scrutiny. Congress must expose corruption, stop political bias, and restore trust in our institutions.

If elected, I will use the investigative powers of the House to put government back on the side of the people.

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

David Flippo (R)

Congressman Paul Gosar

Congressman Trent Kelly

Fmr. Congressman Jeff Duncan

Esmeralda County Republican Party

Churchill County Republican Party

Nye County Commissioner Bruce Jabbour

Esmeralda County Commissioner Mary Jane Zakas

Fmr. State Senator Elizabeth Helgelien

Fmr. Nye County Commissioner Frank Carbone

Fmr. Esmeralda County Commissioner Ralph Keyes

Fmr. Mayor Pro Tem of Mesquite Nevada Wes Boger 

Mesquite Mayor Pro Tem Pattie Gallo

What is an accomplishment that you are proud of?

David Flippo (R)

One of the accomplishments I am most proud of is my service as a combat commander in the United States Air Force, where I was responsible for leading over 1,000 Airmen and establishing operating bases during combat operations in Iraq. Serving my country in uniform and leading men and women under those conditions was an honor and a responsibility that shaped my life. I am equally proud of my family. My wife and I have been married for over 40 years, and together we have raised two sons and now enjoy six wonderful grandchildren. Building a strong family has been just as meaningful to me as my military career, and I consider both to be the foundation of who I am today.

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

David Flippo (R)

The government should allow free markets to drive the development of artificial intelligence while ensuring America leads the world in this technology. Heavy-handed regulation would stifle innovation, but government does have a role in protecting national security, safeguarding intellectual property, and keeping adversaries like China from surpassing us.

I am also concerned about how AI is being used. Overreliance on it risks making our nation less informed and less capable of critical thought. We must make sure AI does not replace American jobs, weaken education, or erode human responsibility. Safety must come first, and that means preventing AI from ever reaching a point where it undermines human control.

If used in the right way, AI can be a powerful tool to strengthen our economy, improve defense capabilities, and create new opportunities for American workers and entrepreneurs. My priority will be to keep AI in the hands of innovators, not bureaucrats, and ensure it serves the American people rather than replacing them.

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

David Flippo (R)

Elections should continue to be run by the states, as the Constitution intended, but there must be common-sense national standards that protect the integrity of the vote. Chief among them is a federal voter ID requirement. Just as identification is required to board a plane or buy alcohol, it should be required to cast a ballot in any American election.

A federal voter ID law does not take away state control, it simply ensures that every state meets a baseline standard of security. Any state that refuses to require identification is effectively allowing illegal votes to dilute and cancel out the ballot of a law-abiding citizen. That is disenfranchisement in its purest form.

I would support legislation that requires government-issued photo ID to vote, with states making IDs available at no cost to every eligible voter. Combined with cleaning up voter rolls, banning ballot harvesting, and requiring proof of citizenship to register, this would restore confidence in our elections while respecting state authority.

Free and fair elections are the foundation of our Republic. Protecting them begins with voter ID.
