Positions
LiberalConservative
Economy & Taxes
Supports fiscal responsibility, reduced regulatory burdens for small businesses, cutting wasteful government programs, a zero-based budgeting approach, and a balanced budget amendment; emphasizes creating an environment where businesses can thrive and attract high-tech industries. These positions prioritize lower government spending and pro-business policies rather than increased taxes or wealth redistribution.
Immigration & Border
The candidate supports restricting employment- and education-based immigration pathways, including an immediate moratorium on new approvals across H-1B, H-4, L-1, F-1/OPT/STEM OPT, J-1, and O-1 categories and tighter limits on student visas and OPT. The platform calls for transparency reporting on visa entries/exits and a comprehensive review of the visa portfolio to prioritize American workers. The position emphasizes limiting legal immigration pathways for labor/education reasons rather than proposals focused on deportation or border militarization.
