Campaign themes
2014
Japp's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
- Excerpt: "Properties rights and hold governmental agencies accountable for not following State Statutes. I have been involved in governmental agencies threading and taking of land and water without these governmental agencies property compensating landowners for best uses."
- Excerpt: "Establishing growth limits on governmental agencies. I have seen governmental agencies increase budgets at a much greater rate of growth than the private sector. The out of control spending is resulting in a greater percentage of taxes than previous years. We are also allowing governmental agencies to barrow funds to balance current budgets at the cost of future generations."
- Excerpt: "Growth of welfare is just out of control!"
- Excerpt: "Reducing property taxes."
