  • "We live in the highest-taxed, most-regulated, and least business-friendly state in the nation – and our leaders in Washington and Albany have done little to get us back on track. It’s important that we have a leader in Washington who will fight and protect families, workers, and job-creators from Albany’s insatiable appetite for high taxes and wasteful spending.

  • "We must address the $20 trillion in debt our nation owes or else we will effectively bankrupt the next generation and jeopardize the viability of programs critical to Monroe County. It’s time politicians in Washington broke their habit of passing massive omnibus spending bills in the dead-of-night and started working across the aisle to help pass a clean, balanced budget that funds critical programs and protects future generations. In Congress I will not just preach fiscal responsibility, I will practice it." (drjimmaxwell.com)
  • "As your Congressman, I will be a champion of pro-growth policies that will help Rochester businesses expand, create more jobs, and pay better wages. I will also be a tireless advocate for regulatory relief to ensure Rochester entrepreneurs and businesses of all sizes have an opportunity to succeed. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act that was signed into law last year has already benefitted Monroe County – and the best is yet to come." (drjimmaxwell.com)
