Campaign themes

2016

Kumar's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

“

Constitution

  • Excerpt: "Vijay is a supporter of our constitution and believes in defending it for the people of Michigan. He took the oath over three decades ago as an American citizen to defend and obey the Constitution of the United States and feels very proud, passionate, and strongly about the Constitutional rights of the American people. He believes without these rights, America would not be the land of the free or the land of opportunity. If legislation is not constitutional Vijay will fight for the people and vote “no” if no resolution can be found."

Life

  • Excerpt: "Vijay is pro-life and believes in the sanctity of every life from conception until natural death. As a father of three daughters, he knows that life is a gift from God and that children are a blessing and not an inconvenience. Vijay believes we must be a voice for those who cannot defend themselves, and we must work harder to expand a better alternative such as adoption that is more affordable to a loving family."

Guns

  • Excerpt: "As a lifelong outdoorsman, life member of NRA, and founding member of Ogemaw Hills Sportsman Association, and gun owner himself, Vijay is a strong defender of the 2nd amendment and believes everyone has the fundamental right to defend his life, liberty, family and property and the right to bear arms should never be encroached upon."

Jobs

  • Excerpt: "The top priority for Northern Michigan is having an economy that allows people to live, work, and raise their families here. For too long our children and grandchildren had to leave the area to seek work. Vijay is a small business owner employing over 100 employees in Northern Michigan. Vijay knows first-hand how burdensome regulations and government interference can prevent economic growth and development. He understands the difficulty small business owners have getting a trained workforce. We need to equip community colleges and tech centers with training programs that prepare workers for today’s new careers and rapid changes as we move through the 21st century economy."[2]
