Campaign themes

2016

Shuttlesworth's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“

Growing and Expanding Business Opportunities and Job Growth

  • EXPANDING OPPORTUNITY TO PROMOTE PROSPERITY - I believe that economic growth can best be achieved by unleashing free enterprise, reducing regulations and creating a competitive environment. This includes developing a climate that encourages business investment, economic diversification and job creation that is fair to all.

Pro 2nd Amendment

  • SUPPORTING THE RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS AND INCREASING SECURITY IN OUR HOMES AND COMMUNITIES - We are fortunate to live in a state with one of the lowest crime rates in the nation. I believe in strictly upholding gun ownership rights and enforcing the existing laws when crimes have been committed. I oppose any attempt to limit the purchase or ownership of firearms and ammunition by law abiding citizens

Stability through Strength of Our Military

  • SUPPORTING OUR HEROES, MILITARY AND VETERANS - The State of West Virginia has the highest per capita number of veterans in the United States. Her citizens have suffered the highest casualty rate in the last four wars and have been awarded the highest per capita number of Medals of Honor.
  • I believe that all citizens have the freedom to pursue work and enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Our Flag Represents Generations of Sacrifice for our Freedom and deserves the Protection of our Laws

  • I believe that the honor and dignity of the Flag of the United States of America should be protected and violators need to be held accountable for defacing our Flag.

Freedom Of Religion

  • That traditional values, education, and religious freedom are the foundation of our country's future. Every American has and deserves the right to choose how and where he/she practices their religion without fear of infringement!

Pro Life

  • The unborn child should be protected in all circumstances, with only the preservation of the Mother allowing ending the unborn child’s life. I believe life is a gift of God and begins at conception.[7]
 ”
—Roger Shuttlesworth[8]
