Issue Positions

For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2022.

  • "Abortion is not about gender equality, in fact the majority of aborted babies are girls. It’s about a radical, and fading, brand of feminism that rejected the nuclear family in the first place. The toll we pay for that ahistorical dream is 800,000 dead babies a year, most of whom are sent away with our medical waste - a rare few are sold for parts." (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "As 2030 approaches, there will increasingly be two camps: the Pro-Bankruptcy uniparty, and the small but loud Anti-National Bankruptcy contingent. Interest in the debt is already the 8th largest federal budget line item. Half the stuff we argue about is way smaller than what we’re already paying our debt on." (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "Child "tax credit" direct deposits start as early a 15 July ($300-350 per child, per month, no work requirement). Obscene labor market intrusion continues." (twitter.com)
  • "Worth a read here by @NoahCRothman @Commentary. Essentially the $3.5t bill undoes any need for nuking the filibuster, it obviates it by cramming everything into reconciliation. System be damned. Between this & the Relief bill, the number of new welfare programs is astounding." (twitter.com)
  • "Agree here. It’s important to oppose a federal subversion of the election process via HR1 and to strengthen constraints against rogue Secretaries of State like here in Pa who abrogated the state legislature’s constitutional role to determine election laws." (twitter.com)
  • "Clean up the pension system, and instead of deferred benefits, pay that money up front and only during the years of service. This helps juice the talent pool and offsets some of the increased risk to the officers that qualified immunity is meant to provide." (twitter.com)
  • "A fairly low cost: fewer troops than in many other places the US is:has been stationed, less spending on defense as a percentage of GDP in all but the slimmest years of the peace dividend (the yrs immediately preceding 9/11 not coincidentally)." (twitter.com)
  • "It’s simple: I don’t want to live in a country where the federal government doles out trillions in handouts and carveouts, nor do I want to live in a country where Amazon employees sleep in trailers outside the warehouse and Walmart teaches its employees how to apply for welfare." (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "Some thoughts on #InfrastructureBill - "The legislation will deliver $550 billion of new federal investments in America's infrastructure over five years" per CNN. So $110b a year -dwarfed by the over $300b a year we're already paying on our debt service. We're going backwards" (twitter.com)

  • "It’s crazy we even have to say it, but we do: You decide what your kids learn in school. You decide what they wear, or don’t wear, on their face" (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "There’s a further misstep in that very article. It laments that the "transition to renewables…hasn’t come@soon enough" as if that would improve/alleviate energy shortages. It’s magical thinking. Supply and demand will still exist, shortages will occur (wind/solar), etc." (twitter.com)
  • "Gas prices are soaring. We have to resume pipeline production in the U.S. and revitalize our oil and natural gas sectors. This conflict has shown us that we can’t be reliant on anyone else for our energy." (twitter.com)
  • "This really is the plan too. It's to try and alienate China at Glasgow conf via what is essentially an eventual global carbon tax on non-committers. This is why we've accepted unbridled foreign aggression, to them those are short term risks all worth bearing for climate progress" (twitter.com)

  • "Secure the Border" (ballotpedia.org)
  • "Secure the border, stop legal immigration until 2030 except for those already in the pipeline. That’s not racist or xenophobic, it’s common sense." (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "Beyond just drawing the line from the Original Sins of DACA/DAPA to the CDC Moratorium, we need to understand these actions as normal in our new rougher/majoritarian constitutional order. The CDC move fits well in the era of Executive Action:" (twitter.com)
  • "Important here. After two years of historic, widespread illegal immigration, there is no room for amnesty or concession. We demand sovereignty." (twitter.com)
  • "Secure the border, stop legal immigration until 2030 except for those already in the pipeline. That’s not racist or xenophobic, it’s common sense." (www.killmeyerforcongress.com)
  • "Looking back at '21, I think the theme for world affairs is that this is the year U.S. adversaries set the tone. It isn't just that Biden's two Big Bets - on Climate and Iran deal - failed, and the individual impact of those demonstrable failures." (twitter.com)
  • "This type of pressure may be part of short-term statecraft as we’ve become accustomed (e.g. phrases like "raises pressure" or "saber rattling") but Iran’s calculations include all of this type of coercion & more. Neither #JCPOA nor #maximumpressure worked" (twitter.com)
  • "Over-the-horizon strategy will keep us safe. The conditions differ significantly in #Afghanistan than they do in Yemen, Syria, Somalia and elsewhere. A plan to rely on that same strategy will not yield the same results, the conditions differ too greatly." (twitter.com)
  • "Re Syria strikes, using the term unmanned vehicle attacks or other is unnecessary. Attacks against our personnel/facilities are attacks, unmanned isn't a useful descriptor, neither any longer is 'cyber.'" (twitter.com)
