Campaign themes
2013
Weaver's campaign website listed the following issue:[3]
- Agriculture
"As delegate he will fight for the rights of farmers, to lift the burden of regulations off their backs. Jack believes that we don’t lack for laws and rules which inhibit those who earn their living off the land."
- Private Property
"Jack Weaver worked diligently garnering interest in the terrors of forced eminent domain. Jack highly supports personal property rights."
- Economic Development
"If governments were truly interested in economic development, they should eliminate of the myriad government barriers to entrepreneurship and small business formation. These include, among others, occupational licensing, restrictions on street and farm marketing, and over restrictive zoning."
- Energy Independence
"Jack Weaver emphatically says open up our coal fields. Virginia has a natural resource in coal with scrubbers that are effective in cleaning the product. Clean coal will be his battle cry in Richmond."
- Religion and Public Life in America
"First and foremost, I have no doubt that Religious Liberty is being redefined in America. Our secular establishment wants to reduce the autonomy of religious institutions and limit the influence of faith in the public square."
