Scott Grover Heinig was a 2014 Democratic candidate for District 27 of the Wisconsin State Assembly.[1]

Campaign themes

2014

Heinig's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[2]

Government

  • Excerpt: "As a member of the Wisconsin Assembly I will work to the best of my capabilities to assure that we control and improve government and protect the right to success of Wisconsin's individuals and businesses while affording the constitutional protections to all. The cost of private gain should be bore by the group that is gaining. When the gain is public it should be bore fairly by the whole."

Education

  • Excerpt: "I support the common core initiative. Wisconsin has a good education system and as we look to the future we do need to make it better. Common core was intended to start the process of doing so. But the common core initiative has become a political football. There has been a lot of miss information put out by those that want to control the agenda, and they use fear and miss information to create doubt."

Act 10

  • Excerpt: "I do support the necessity of passing Act 10, School boards, parents, and educators need to take the system back, and make it work for the students: but I despise the way in which it played out."

Individual rights

  • Excerpt: "Your life, your liberty, your pursuit of happiness, up until the point they interfere with my life, my liberty, and my pursuit of happiness. When someone else wants to dictate what you should do or be, it is because they are not confident in themselves."

Taxes

  • Excerpt: "We have to change the way we unfairly tax, and provide supports that often benefit only a few, often increasing the cost of the very thing we are supporting by reducing or restricting the open market. Taxes should be employed to cover the adverse effects or unintended side effects to the community."
