Kirsten Gillibrand in League of Women Voters 2010 Candidate Questionnaire


On Jobs: End outsourcing of jobs and see "Made in America" again

Q: Do you support substantial additional federal funding for economic recovery?

A: The only way we are going to pay down the deficit and get our fiscal house in order is by growing our economy and making wise investments to create jobs. I want to end outsourcing of jobs and see "Made in America" again by providing tax credits for businesses that create jobs.

On War & Peace: Timetable for drawing down troops from Afghanistan

Q: What timetable would you support for the removal of troops from Iraq and Afghanistan?

A: I support the recent removal of combat troops from Iraq, as agreed to with the Iraqi government. I also support a timetable for drawing down troops from Afghanistan as a political tool to help encourage the Afghan government to assume more responsibility for their own security.
