2020 House elections: on Government Reform
Barry Moore:
If getting to a polling place is difficult, vote absentee
As someone who is asking for people's votes, it's hard to admit I missed one," Moore said. "I had to make a choice that day. I hope I was able to make it up to President Trump by going to the Republican National Convention and casting my vote for him as
a delegate from Alabama. I have learned a valuable lesson. Looking back, I should have voted absentee that year since we were in session. Learn from my mistake and get an absentee ballot if you think you won't make it to the polls."

David Valadao:
Less regulation and lower taxes will create jobs
The unemployment rate in the San Joaquin Valley is nearly double the national average. David knows that our economy needs to work for rural and working families, not just big cities. Small businesses are the backbone of our nation's economy and
needless regulations and a greater tax burden make it harder for them to hire. David will work to pass common sense legislation that will put Americans, especially those in the Central Valley, back to work.

Greg Stanton:
Wants to do more to protect U.S. elections from meddling
[On 2016 election]: "It's really crazy that the intelligence community won't provide face-to-face briefings to members of Congress anymore." Before briefings were canceled in August, Stanton said, he received information about Russia's active efforts to
interfere with the elections. "We did pass many bills on election security," he said of the Democratic-led House, "but those bills did not even get a hearing in the Senate. So you have foreign attempts to interfere in our election."

Jake LaTurner:
Impose term limits on members of Congress
My first official action as Congressman will be to co-sponsor legislation implanting a constitutional amendment imposing term limits on members of Congress.
The challenges we face as a nation will not be tackled if politicians are only focused on the next election.

Michelle Fischbach:
Fight corruption with transparency and election reform
Nicole has been a leading voice for government reform and transparency. Nicole advocated for good government reforms that now disclose every vote taken by members of the State Assembly and she enacted a new state law taking pensions away
from elected officials convicted of corruption. Nicole opposes H.R. 1 which would funnel billions of dollars in taxpayer money to candidates for federal office and, in states and municipalities across the country, led to the abuse of taxpayer money.

Mo Brooks:
Will challenge Electoral College; vote stolen by socialists
On Trump's election appeals: "Rep. Mo Brooks has been telling colleagues that he plans to challenge the Electoral College votes when Congress officially certifies Biden's victory, as long as a Senate Republican joins him in the long-shot effort."
Said Brooks: "If only lawful votes by eligible American citizens were cast, Donald Trump won the Electoral College by a significant margin. This election was stolen by the socialists engaging in extraordinary voter fraud and election theft measures."

Pete Stauber:
Bar members of Congress from owning individual stocks
A bill authored by Craig--the Halt Unchecked Member Benefits with Lobbying Elimination, or HUMBLE, Act--would bar members of
Congress from owning individual stocks. "If your personal stock and portfolio is more important to you than serving your constituents, then you probably shouldn't be a member of Congress."

Randy Feenstra:
Government regulation limits opportunity
Too often, politicians believe the government is the solution to inequities, but I believe the inverse is true: government intervention, like taxes and regulations, often limits the opportunity for people. We can and should provide an opportunity for
more folks by putting money back in the pockets of Iowans and supporting a pro-family policy that reinforces the building blocks of communities.

Tom Tiffany:
Cut federal budget wherever possible
Tom believes that federal spending is out of control. In Wisconsin, Tom and his colleagues took a $3.6 billion deficit and turned it into balanced budgets, $13 billion in tax cuts, and the largest rainy day fund in state history! Tom believes we
need to take a look at the whole federal budget--how our government operates and where we can find massive, systemic savings for the taxpayer. Tom supports repealing the Davis-Bacon law that increases the costs of everyday federal building projects.
