Curtis Bashaw: Government should unshackle our small businesses

Americans put up with tiresome, one size fits all rules and regulations from our government daily. It should be the responsibility of the government to unshackle our small businesses. I believe the best social program is a job. I'm running for the United States Senate to afford Americans the opportunity to work and thrive in our economy. Let's create new jobs and build the American opportunity our citizens crave for our children and grandchildren. Source: 2024 New Jersey Senate race site: CurtisBashawForSenate.com Jun 24, 2024

Curtis Bashaw: I believe election integrity is important to all voters

I believe that Joe Biden won the 2020 election, and that it was a process that's continued, and he is our president. I believe that there's an election right now. Donald Trump's the head of the Republican ticket, and I believe election integrity is important to all voters, and that we need to make sure that we've got our poll watchers out there, that both parties are doing their duty, their civic duty, to make sure we have free and fair elections.
