Valencia Stovall: Global Stewardship for sustainable practices

My top 3 priorities are Economic Opportunity with a focus on transforming our education system and support small business growth, Government Efficiency by ensuring a well run government that is fiscally sound, and Global Stewardship that modernizes our global trade programs and sustain environmental practices. To identify the funding needed, a review of excess and redundant spending are essential which happens a lot in long existing bureaucracies.

Allen Buckley: Preserve the EPA within bounds of statutory rights

Q: So you're in favor of preserving the EPA, when so many Libertarians want to completely nix it.

Allen Buckley: Yes. That's where I agree with the Democrats, about preserving the environment. I don't agree with the way that's it's being done; through Executive Order, and issuance of regulations which go beyond statutory rights to regulate.
