Survey of 2024 Senate campaign websites: on Budget & Economy

Tim Sheehy: Balance the budget and begin to lower our national debt

Frank LaRose: Championed adopting federal balanced budget amendment

As a state senator, Frank did the hard work to balance Ohio's budget--every time. When he first went to the state senate, he voted to cut spending by $8 billion. Frank's core economic principle is that money is best spent by the people, not the government. Frank championed legislation to adopt a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Today, the contrast of state balanced budget requirements and the staggering amounts of debt being racked up in Washington could not be clearer.
