2016
Waggoner's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]
| “ | Will believes in small government.
Fiscal responsibility starts with limiting government spending and wisely using the taxpayers money. Privacy, property, and personal rights are all unalienable under the United States Constitution. The 2nd Amendment will not be infringed upon. Education is key to building a well rounded society in which all citizens who can contribute, do contribute. Health Care is a service industry in which the government should have minimal role. Social security income should not be taxed as the recipients have already been taxed for it when they paid in. Clean, renewable energy is essential to the longevity of the health of our planet. It is our responsibility to take care of it.[2] |
