"Tudor Dixon is a strong pro-life leader who possesses the ability to lead Michigan towards being a life-affirming state. Right to Life of MI PAC is excited to work towards the election of Tudor Dixon as Michigan's next governor." - Paul Miller, chairman of Right to Life of Michigan's PAC board.

On Budget & Economy: Find new ways to fund critical infrastructure and roads

• Road Repairs & Regulatory Reform: Fund road repair as a fundamental priority in the state budget and make regulatory changes to simplify and speed up road building.
• Utilize Alternative Financing Opportunities: Finding new ways to fund critical infrastructure and roads without raising taxes is possible. Michigan should use public-private partnerships and other innovative financing mechanisms where they make sense and can ease the annual burden on taxpayers.

On Tax Reform: Phase out Michigan's personal income tax

On Crime: Fully fund law enforcement; oppose cash bail reform

We will never reduce funding for law enforcement agencies or public safety initiatives. Unlike Gretchen Whitmer's "Defund the Police" allies, we believe in fully funding law enforcement and providing them the resources they need to keep our communities safe.
• Fund De-escalation Training: Increase funding for training in de-escalation techniques. Stop perpetuating the false and racist myths that law enforcement officers are inherently racist.

• Zero-Tolerance for Riots: Enhance criminal penalties for crimes committed during riots or violent "protests."

• Preserve Parents' Rights: Require school districts to put all curriculum and teaching materials online for parents to see and ban school personnel from talking to Kindergarten-3rd grade children about sex and gender theory secretly behind their parents' backs.
• Protect Girls' Sports: Protect young girls from being forced to compete against biological boys in school sports by banning born boys from playing on girls' teams in school-sanctioned, gender-specific sports.

On Government Reform: Cut, reduce, or streamline 40% of regulatory code in 4 years

On Government Reform: Enact strong Voter ID, ban drop boxes

• Sign Strong Voter ID Laws: Sign legislation to make Michigan's Voter ID laws the strongest in the country.

On Gun Control: Stop all efforts to restrict the 2nd Amendment

Regarding school safety, she has called for all so-called "diversity/equity/inclusion" consultants and administrators in public schools to be cut and the funding for their positions to be repurposed and used for armed school security. She also proposed using one-time federal COVID relief funds to harden schools through increased security features and planning.
• Enact Constitutional Carry: Stop all efforts to restrict the 2nd Amendment and ensure that law-abiding citizens can protect themselves.
• Fund De-escalation Training: Increase funding for training in de-escalation techniques. Stop perpetuating the false and racist myths that law enforcement officers are inherently racist.

On Abortion: Proposal 3 is radical abortion rights like China & N.Korea

Whitmer shot back: "None of what she said is true." The two were clashing over what's known as Proposal 3--a measure placed on the ballot after a petition drive seeking to amend the state's constitution to scrap Michigan's 1931 law banning abortion with no exceptions for cases of rape and incest. That law, which had long been dormant, was revived after the Supreme Court's decision overturning Roe v. Wade before a judge ruled the law unconstitutional in September.

On Civil Rights: No mandatory vaccines; no coronavirus lockdowns

Dixon has sought to make Whitmer's leadership throughout the pandemic a top issue in the contest. "Like many of you, I had a small business crushed [by coronavirus lockdowns]. Like many of you I lost a loved one," said Dixon. "Gretchen Whitmer doesn't want to be defined by her carelessness or dishonesty or her hypocrisy during that time."

Earlier this month, the CDC voted to add coronavirus inoculation to the Vaccines for Children Program. The inclusion does not make the shots mandatory for children but places it on a list of recommended vaccinations.

On Education: Office of Safe Schools to protect children from shootings

Dixon said she wants armed security at schools, as well as a single entry point for school buildings. "We need an Office of Safe Schools, like states like Florida have, to make sure that this is a top priority," Dixon said.

"We've been trying that for 30 years. It's not working," Whitmer said. Instead, she said, Michigan needs to enact laws requiring background checks and secure storage, as well as "red flag" laws. "Ask yourself, who is going to keep your kids safe: The former prosecutor with plans, or a candidate with thoughts and prayers?" Whitmer said.

On Families & Children: Parents outraged about schoolbook describing how to have sex

"If you have material in your school that is something you can't read to a child at a bus stop because you would be arrested because it is pornographic, then it should not be in a classroom," Dixon said.

Whitmer responded that Dixon was trying to "wedge communities against each other." She said, "It is dangerous and it is selfish. We need to bring down the temperature and solve the problem to make sure parents are involved and students feel comfortable and we're giving them a robust education."

Dixon responded: "We've received the answer now that she's not going to stand with parents on this issue."

And Whitmer shot back: "Do you really think books pose a greater danger to our kids than gun violence does? Mrs. Dixon is trying to distract us."

On Principles & Values: Recommended stealing 2020 election then "calling for unity"

In a reply Dixon tweeted to Trump in November 2020, she falsely wrote, "Steal an election then hide behind calls for unity and leftists lap it up."

Dixon has sometimes taken a somewhat softer line, complaining about the election without calling it stolen. She said in July that there was enough fraud "that we have to be very concerned," adding, "I don't think we can see enough of the evidence because we weren't able to look back and some of that is destroyed now." (It isn't clear what she was talking about.) Dixon dodged when asked if she thought the election was stolen, saying instead, "Well, it's certainly a concern to a lot of folks here in Michigan because of the way the election was handled by our secretary of state."
