“It’s time for voters to reject politicians of both parties who continue to jeopardize the financial future of our nation. These people must be replaced with individuals who understand how to balance a budget and reduce our debt by stimulating growth and implementing financial restraint.”

“Rather than trying to control or confiscate guns, it might be smarter to offer free, public gun-safety courses.
