Minor-party candidates should move directly to the general election ballot after nomination. We should not be making any tax cuts until we have a stable source of revenue. Once the voters show that they are not willing to go the route Oregon has taken we can work for full tax reform. In that circumstance I will support tax cuts for small businesses. I believe that our tax structure should be reformed through statutes.
Constitutional amendments are to be avoided.
I support legislation requiring express approval before a person's personal data can be shared or sold. Financial institutions should not be exempt. The strictures that apply to the IRS and the Bureau of the Census are a good model to follow. A commission studying transportation funding says a new financing mechanism is needed to keep Washington transportation projects on track. I believe the death penalty should be abolished.
