Campaign themes
2013
Waters' campaign website listed the following issues:[2]
- Limited Government
"The primary role of government at all levels is to protect the individual rights of citizens. The government should not unduly restrict free enterprise, property rights, or personal lifestyles with burdensome laws."
- Low Taxes
"The cost of government should not become unduly burdensome or tyrannical. Sales taxes rates and individual tax rates should be competitive with the rates in any other contiguous state."
- Education
"Access to a sound education leads to opportunity, a good job, and a better future. To improve learning in the classroom, high-performing teachers should receive merit pay and should be granted more freedom from bureaucracy."
- Strong Military
"The primary role of government at all levels is to protect its citizens. Beyond the current wars, our military’s credibility, commitment, and presence is required to sustain alliances, to protect trade routes and energy supplies, and to deter war and conflict with our presence."
- Traditional Faith and Family Values
"Government policies should not undermine families, churches, and charities, the most efficient providers of the economic and social safety net."
