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 2024.

  • "You can see by my record that I firmly believe the Federal government needs to stay out of our bedrooms and must let a woman make the important medical decisions she needs. " (boydaforcongress.com)

  • "The tax cuts of 2017 provided disproportionate benefits for high-wealth households and corporations. The AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) which initially promised that the ultra-wealthy would at least pay a minimum amount of tax, was dramatically weakened. " (boydaforcongress.com)
  • "I understand how hurtful the words "trickle down" are to hard working Americans. Does it make any sense to give ultra-wealthy Americans huge tax cuts so a few meager drops can "trickle down" to the rest? When the debate about extending the 2017 tax cuts comes up in the next Congress, I will work hard for an equitable tax code that gives the middle class a fighting chance." (boydaforcongress.com)
  • "Congress attempted to control how much money is spent on elections, but in 2010 SCOTUS made the fateful Citizens United decision and declared unlimited dark money in our elections was equivalent to free speech. "Free speech" for the ultra-powerful was allowed to drown out the free speech for the ordinary Kansan. It didn’t take long for both sides to get addicted to the tsunami of money that has now become common place. Everyone I speak with decries what has happened, but I’ve met few people who believe it will ever change. We can change this! I will join the fight to introduce a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United and return free speech to Kansans." (boydaforcongress.com)

I cannot imagine where we would be without the significant investments we have made in renewable energy. I will continue to support investments in new technologies." (boydaforcongress.com)

  • "These bipartisan bills included: a path to citizenship contingent on increased border security and improved visa tracking; a more restricted definition of asylum; and increased administrative and judiciary processes to expedite decisions and reduce the backlog... neither bill was brought to the floor for debate and a vote. Partisan politics blocked moving forward. I will push hard to have a bipartisan bill brought up for debate and a vote." (boydaforcongress.com)
