The following issues were listed on Krishnamoorthi's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

  • Climate Change: As president of an Illinois company that researches solar energy technology, Raja understands that the time for America’s clean energy future is now. A cleaner environment and a stronger economy are not competing goals, as many in Congress seem to believe. Instead, nations that lead the way in developing clean energy technology will gain a competitive advantage in creating the good jobs of the future.
  • Supporting America’s Seniors: Social Security and Medicare are two of the most successful programs in our nation’s history, moving millions of people out of poverty and enabling them to live their golden years in dignity. Nevertheless, they have been under constant attack by those who oppose those programs on ideological grounds.
  • Strengthening Working Families: Raja Krishnamoorthi is running with a five-point plan, called his “Working Families Agenda” to help more Americans achieve economic security and the middle-class.
  • Protecting Choice: Raja Krishnamoorthi is a longtime, consistent supporter of a woman’s right to choose. As the husband of a physician, Raja believes that women have the right to make their own healthcare decisions in consultation with their doctors and without the interference of politicians.
  • Passing Common Sense Gun Laws: Raja supports common-sense gun laws to keep guns out of the wrong hands and reduce the epidemic of mass shootings that are occurring across the U.S. Among the measures he supports are closing the “gun-show loophole” by extending background checks for gun purchases to gun shows; reinstating the expired federal ban on assault weapons; and improving the reporting system to help keep guns out of the hands of terrorists, convicted felons, and those with severe mental illnesses. Raja would also allow the government to fund research on gun deaths and gun safety. Too many young people are dying from an epidemic of gun violence, and we must do what we can do protect the public from guns in the hands of those who would seek to do harm.

[134]

—Raja Krishnamoorthi's campaign website, http://rajaforcongress.com/issue/climate-change/

2012

On his campaign website, Krishnamoorthi listed 10 leading issues. They were:[135]

  • Renew our Economy: Excerpt: "We need to create new jobs, and we need our small businesses, the engines of our economy, to grow and proliferate. By investing in our infrastructure, making our buildings energy-efficient, supporting the growth of small business, and training our workers for the jobs of the 21st century, we can restore greatness to our economy."
  • Protect Social Security and Medicare: Excerpt: "By considering certain reforms such as, for instance, enabling Medicare to negotiate with drug providers and raising the cap on incomes paying into Social Security and Medicare, we can begin to put these systems on a sound footing for decades to come."
  • Protect Women’s Rights: Excerpt: "I am also committed to ensuring equal economic opportunities for women and the elimination of gender-based discrimination."
  • Ensure Access to Quality Healthcare: Excerpt: "I strongly oppose repealing the Affordable Care Act; however, I do support any new reforms that reduce the cost of care, expand coverage, and improve patient protection...by making sure that doctors and patients, not insurers, make weighty health care decisions, we can really put doctors and patients first in our healthcare system. Measures such as allowing Medicare to negotiate fair prescription drug prices for seniors will also help reduce the cost of care."
  • Provide Quality Education: Excerpt: "We can foster excellence and innovation in our nation's schools by recruiting talented teachers and upgrading the physical infrastructure of the education system for the 21st century. We need to train an army of new teachers, not just avoid layoffs. Scholarship programs and student loan forgiveness programs should continue to be used to create incentives for accomplished graduates to enter teaching."
  • Bring Sanity to the Federal Budget: Excerpt: "We must act to stabilize the finances of our major entitlement programs for future generations and overhaul our tax code to make it as fair, efficient, and easy to understand as possible. We must also wind down the war in Afghanistan, which is estimated to cost $118 billion this year, and invest the savings to renew our own economy. A responsible approach to ending the long-term deficit will lay strong foundations for economic growth without depriving those most in need of assistance right now."
  • End our Addiction to Fossil Fuels: Excerpt: "Increased domestic production of fossil fuels is a temporary solution, so we must embark on a sustained search for long-term cost-effective, alternative, renewable energy sources. We will also need to continue to invest in greater ways to conserve energy as well."
  • Rebuild America’s Infrastructure: Excerpt: "I support the proposal for a national infrastructure bank put forward by President Obama to secure funding for vital infrastructure projects. Upgrading our infrastructure will help to end the ongoing unemployment crisis and provide a foundation for economic greatness in the 21st century."
  • Deriving Strength Through Immigration: Excerpt: "We must ensure that all of our citizens are both safe and free. This means ending discrimination on the basis of, among other things, gender, race, religion, color, national origin, and sexual orientation. I believe in marriage equality and will support the repeal of DOMA as well as the enactment of ENDA."
  • America’s Place in the World: Excerpt: "I oppose an adventurist foreign policy such as the one that got us into Iraq, and we must avoid mission creep such as the long-running war in Afghanistan, which started as a counter-terrorism mission that gradually morphed into an impossible nation-building exercise. America must maintain a strong national defense; however, I will not support excessive defense spending in a time of fiscal belt tightening. Therefore, I support the President’s and Pentagon’s plans for a reduction in defense spending over the next ten years."[134]
