Campaign themes

2016

Brooks' campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

The economy

  • Excerpt: "We deserve financial stability, for ourselves and for our state. Our businesses should not have to struggle to keep their doors open and our families should not have to struggle to keep the heat on. If you work hard 40 hours a week you should be able to support yourself. If you turn your talent and expertise into a service for the community, you should be able to thrive."

Education

  • Excerpt: "I will push for limits in classroom size and encourage teaching 'soft skills' to ensure our children receive an education that is both well-rounded and suited to their needs in a changing economy. I will advocate for local control and an increase in investment, providing adequate resources and training for our teachers."

Accountability

  • Excerpt: "As your State Representative, I will not only be honest with my answers to you and keep you informed, but I will also work tirelessly to increase the accountability and transparency of our government."

Infrastructure

  • Excerpt: "We deserve reliable access to clean water and efficient sewer systems. I will make it a priority to revive our infrastructure, because it is the foundation that all of Michigan is built on."
