  • "This is very near and dear to my heart! To me, it goes beyond party lines! Everyone should be willing to defend the lives of the innocent! So happy to hear that there are those who are willing to take a bold stand for LIFE! I am going to Washington to defend LIFE! #Life #ProLife #MAGA #CD39 #PhilLiberatore" (www.facebook.com)
  • "Oppose Higher Taxes – I’m a CPA and taxpayer advocate. I’ve fought for families and businesses who were unfairly targeted by the IRS. I oppose raising taxes, period. I’ll fight to ensure that the American people are never overburdened with unaffordable and unfair taxes." (philliberatore.com)
  • "Build and Respect our Military – Government exists to protect our liberty, and that starts with a well funded, fully supported military. I support our military, and I believe our veterans should be always treated like the heroes they are." (philliberatore.com)
  • Despite exhaustive research, Vote Smart was unable to find information about this candidate's position.
  • "Fix the Budget and Spending Process – Government has grown too big and wastes far too much of our money. I will fight every day to cut government down to size – slashing budgets for non-essential spending, and ensuring there are measurable returns for every dollar spent. I’m a CPA and I have no problem eliminating hundreds of billions in waste and inefficient spending. It’s time to trim this government down to size!" (philliberatore.com)

  • "Strengthen Foreign Policy – For too long, the Washington elites have failed to act in America’s best interest. What they’ve called ‘diplomacy,’ President Trump has rightly identified as inaction that leads to bigger problems. I will support policies that are tough on nations like North Korea and Iran. And, I will continue to support offense against terrorism, wherever it exists. I will support swift action to ensure our security." (philliberatore.com)
