Allen Waters in 2024 RI Senate race
On Civil Rights:
Only blacks can solve black problems; starts with God, Moses
Black Americans are still in the Communist tool kit and black leaders to help save us from being exploited are hard to find because they are on the 'payroll.'
We are not victims. Only blacks can solve black problems, and that starts with God and Moses.

On Energy & Oil:
No more corporate welfare for green energy business
No more income tax on the working class meaning no more tax on their interest or capital gains or 401ks; a sales tax rebate up to the poverty level so many items are tax free,
AND, no more corporate welfare for your green energy business friends. Tell it right, Mr. President.

On Government Reform:
Stop overburdening our businesses with needless regulation
In contrast to the incumbent "millionaire," as he styled Wolf, Waters promised to be "your neighbor" speaking up on bread-and-butter issues. Pacing back and forth, Waters ticked them off: education reform (he blasted Democrats for keeping a lid on
charter schools), lowering the sales and state income taxes, instituting tax credits for small businesses as they raise wages under the new minimum wage law, and putting a stop to "overburdening our businesses with needless regulation."

On Government Reform:
Signed pledge to support term limits on Congress
U.S. Term Limits (USTL), the leader in the non-partisan national movement to limit terms for elected officials, praises 2022 U.S. house candidate for Rhode Island, Allen Waters (district 1), for signing the pledge for an amendment to term limit Congress.
The term limits amendment resolutions would require a two-thirds majority in the House and Senate, and ratification by 38 states, in order to become part of the U.S. Constitution.

On Social Security:
Democrats should stop the lies about Social Security and GOP
Democratic candidates for Congress in RI CD1 should stop the lies about Social Security and Republicans.
What we need to do is to work with the GOP in a bipartisan manner to keep #SocialSecurity solvent. Using fear tactics is bad politics.

On Budget & Economy:
Fiscal responsibility: $34 trillion debt is immoral
Q: Who are you? Tell us about yourself.A: Hello! This is Allen Waters for Congress (U-RI) for the Rhode Island 1st Congressional District. I am a 68-year-old, independent, black conservative candidate. I offer voters fiscal responsibility,
commonsense solutions and traditional American values. I am not a Big Government Socialist. Personal freedom; free (and fair) markets; limited government; and a strong national defense are all important to me. We must grow the U.S. economy, preserve our
American culture, and, above all, we must protect all the American people!
I am motivated to serve my state and nation because America is too politically polarized to be functional, the $34,600,000,000,000 debt
Congress is leaving for future generations is immoral and must be reversed. We must rescue America from the deep Swamp establishment, and the radical left. We are running out of time.

On Immigration:
Protect our national sovereignty: no "Open Borders"
A primary role of our federal government is to protect the American people from both foreign and domestic threats. The effectively "Open Borders" policy of the Biden Administration has put our nation at great risk and cost.
We must protect our national sovereignty. We must fully fund and support our United States Border Patrol; nationally manhunt foreign spies, terrorists, operatives and criminal illegal alien miscreants, and deport them;
and reform our immigration laws that better supports lawful, orderly, less complicated, and less expensive entry for people who respect
America and want to make a positive difference as a guest, a resident, and as a new productive American citizen.

On Principles & Values:
America is divided & growing more polarized
Q: What do you perceive to be America's greatest challenges?A: America is a divided nation that is growing more polarized between the two major political parties, and between extreme ideologies from left to right among the general public.
I am most concerned with the subset of the Democratic Party that by deeds versus word alone are growing more authoritarian in nature. I believe America has a growing Marxist problem, and the resetting of America from the original intent of the founders.

On Tax Reform:
Taxpayer Payer Protection Pledge: no tax increases
In terms of fiscal responsibility, I believe the House must practice better stewardship. I signed the Americans for Tax Reform (ATR.org) Taxpayer Payer Protection Pledge:"I pledge that I will: - oppose any and all efforts
to increase the marginal income tax rates for individuals and/or businesses; and
- oppose any net reduction or elimination of deductions and credits, unless matched dollar for dollar by further reducing tax rates.

On Welfare & Poverty:
Affordable Housing in America is in a crisis
Q: What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?A: Affordable Housing in America is in a crisis for too many citizens. Many states support private and publicly owned rental properties, which creates cash flow and financial equity
for owners, and saddles tenants with rental and lease payments, often extremely high for the average wages of the local area because units are in short supply in a competitive rental marketplace.
Waters for Congress 2024 (U-RI) supports cooperative (co-op) housing in which the tenants do not own their units, but own shares of the corporation that owns the building.
This especially gives credit qualified poor to working class tenants ownership "skin in the game' that helps to build personal wealth instead of owners receiving all of the owner benefits.
