Robert Frizzelle completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2021. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Frizzelle's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Educational performance suffered during school closures from COVID - so teaching those lost skills should be top priority, but FCPS is focused instead on creating new curricula for equity and gender topics. Public education is for teaching skills, not progessive political sensibilities.
- Serious crime is up. We need good law enforcement, not the progressive version where police have almost no way to stop cars and no qualified immunity for doing their jobs. For good policing, don't let new unions protect bad officers from investigation or penalties.
- Taxes are up, and progressives want to raise them higher. Entitlements increase taxes, so restraint is necessary. I support the new Medicare services and seek open pricing, but not single payer healthcare..
We need school choice so parents can have input on curriculum & a focus on performance.
To satisfy violent protesters last summer, many new limits were put on police - now crime is up. We need to restore police ability to stop cars and prevent crime. Qualified immunity is necessary to keep good police on the force - I will defend it. For fair and respectful policing, let's make body cam data immediately available to the public, just like cell phone videos are now.
Taxes are up by 20% over the past 3 years in Virginia, and under the progressive plans, will go much higher. We need to slow the growth of new entitlement expenses to reduce tax increases.
Atmospheric carbon is rising - so we need to transition to clean energy. We need incentives and regulation updates to speed the rollout of rooftop solar and other major infrastructure transitions to reduce our carbon output.
2- Decide issues in ways that preserve the liberty, safety, and work incentives for constituents
3- Advocate for constituents when government procedures and practices are failing them
Also focused on transitioning our energy grid to clean, robust sources of energy to reduce carbon and reduce global warming from human activity.
I will be a champion for those who are treated unfairly or who are victims of the system.
When a big job needs doing, I want to do it well and that takes time - sometimes it becomes consuming.
Virginia benefits from many US government jobs, so the constant growth in government jobs has boosted the Virginia economy. If military spending or other the US government growth slows, it will hit Virginia hard.
Drawbacks - reduces the opportunities for divided but shared political control - which usually leads to a requirement for compromise and better government.
Unfortunately, experienced legislators are no better and probably worse at listening to their voters.
- Education
- Taxes
- Public Safety
