Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

David Buzzard’s campaign materials emphasize reducing national debt, rebuilding infrastructure, and protecting the middle class while criticizing federal spending that benefits foreign interests; he also expresses skepticism of unregulated markets and says the market should serve citizens rather than damage work opportunities. He does not provide a clear, specific tax policy (e.g., planned tax cuts or explicit tax increases) on his campaign site or recent public interviews.

Healthcare

The candidate emphasizes veterans’ healthcare, mental health, and healthcare reform broadly, focusing on support for treatments and services for veterans and reintegration challenges. Public materials describe advocacy for healthcare reform but do not state specific policy proposals (e.g., stance on ACA, Medicaid expansion, Medicare for All, or a public option).

Immigration & Border

Supports stricter enforcement of immigration and labor laws, including prosecuting employers who hire undocumented workers and imposing economic penalties on hiring foreign labor. Emphasizes sovereignty and restricting foreign economic influence as part of an immigration/economic-nationalist platform.

Climate & Energy

Supports local conservation and resource-protection measures (fishing access, limits on corporate overfishing) and pollution-reduction steps (transition from plastic to glass) framed as “environmental stewardship” and “environmental patriotism.” No campaign materials or public statements locate support for specific climate targets, carbon pricing, or major clean-energy transition policies.
