Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Supports cutting taxes and reducing regulations, including efforts to lower specific taxes such as the Communications Services Tax and tangible personal property taxes, and favors policies to return more money to taxpayers. Emphasizes pro-business, free-market approaches and limiting tax burdens on individuals and businesses.

Healthcare

Jason Fischer has sponsored state-level health legislation (including a bill to prevent discrimination in organ transplant access for people with disabilities) and served on health-related legislative committees. He has not published a clear, comprehensive position on federal healthcare policy such as the ACA, Medicare for All, or a public option in the sources found. Available evidence describes narrow policy actions rather than an overall stance on healthcare system reform.

Immigration & Border

Supports stronger enforcement against illegal immigration and favors measures to "crack down on illegal immigration." Positions emphasize conservative border/security approaches rather than expanded legal pathways or asylum protections.

Climate & Energy

Has a background in the energy industry and as a state legislator advocated lowering energy sales taxes; no clear public record of support for aggressive emissions targets, Green New Deal–style policies, or detailed climate mitigation plans.

Public Safety & Guns

Opposes new gun-control measures and emphasizes defending Second Amendment rights while supporting gun-safety education programs in schools. Campaign messaging has stated opposition to gun control and framed efforts as protecting lawful gun ownership.
