2020 KS Senatorial race: on Foreign Policy


Dave Lindstrom: Focus of wars & alliances should be American interests

America should never go to war, nor form any alliance, without clearly identifiable benefits to the advancement and security of American interests. Dave supports President Trump's efforts to review foreign aid expenditures and to require allies to pay their fair share associated with common defense pacts and military operations. American tax dollars should be spent to further America's interests, not subsidize the interests of other countries with little associated American benefit.

Dave Lindstrom: Support of Israel benefits US strategically & economically

Dave strongly supports America's long overdue recognition of Jerusalem as the capital city of Israel. Israel is our reliable ally in the Middle East region, providing not only a strategic relationship militarily, but Israel has also been an innovative economic partner that has contributed to our economy and benefitted Americans, particularly in field of medicine. It is a model relationship that is a clear illustration of America First foreign policy.

Barbara Bollier: Diplomacy is our first line of defense in national security

Barbara knows that the best way to keep Americans safe is to remain a global leader and to continue to work closely with our international allies. Our allies multiply our strength and influence abroad and our diplomats work everyday to make Americans safer. Diplomacy is our first line of defense in national security.
