Issue Position: Economy and Jobs

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2014

American businesses are mired in regulation, litigation, and taxation. In order to keep America competitive in the 21st century, Congress needs to foster an economic climate that helps U.S. industries expand opportunities, hire new employees, and invest in research and development.

I support a measure that will place a one-year moratorium on any further government regulations. I continue to fight back attempts to increase unnecessary regulatory burdens on business. What I hear time and time again from business owners is that this current administration continues to change the rules on them. To plan for the future, businesses need consistency and predictable taxes and regulations.

It has been my experience that the most positive economic outcomes are produced when the government sets fair rules, reasonable tax rates and then stands aside and allows people and businesses to work and grow to their fullest potential.
