Campaign themes
2016
Fletcher's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[2]
Protect Life and Our Constitutional Freedoms
- Excerpt: "Life is both precious and fragile. I hold pro-life views across the life span, meaning that I support the protection of life from conception until death."
Promote Policies That Create Jobs & Educational Opportunities
- Excerpt: "I will fight for legislation that ensures our children are prepared to compete for new job opportunities once they graduate, and that assures solid life skill preparedness at the same time."
Problem-Solve Healthcare Solutions
- Excerpt: "I will fight for disability reform so that those who need help can get it and those who are abusing the system no longer do so upon the backs of the taxpayers. Fraud and abuse is rampant in our state and costs millions of dollars a year. I will help your tax dollars stretch farther by eliminating fraud and abuse in our health care system."
Provide Government Transparency
- Excerpt: "It is time that we pushed for real transparency from our leaders in Frankfort. We know what a mess our teachers’ retirements are in, so why shouldn’t we know what’s going on with our legislators’ retirements as well?"
