Glenn Elliott in Survey of 2024 Senate campaign websites
On Abortion:
Restore the balanced framework that Roe v. Wade provided
As your Senator, I will be dedicated to safeguarding the freedom for women to make informed decisions about their health and futures. It's about ensuring that every woman in West Virginia and across this great nation retains the right to privacy,
to healthcare, and to choose. I will steadfastly advocate for legislation that protects these rights and restores the balanced framework that Roe v. Wade provided, ensuring that reproductive healthcare remains a decision between a woman and her doctor.

On Budget & Economy:
Incentivize first-time homebuyers & rural infrastructure
The right to a roof over one's head is fundamental. My vision is clear: to implement housing policies that increase affordability, enhance housing quality, and expand accessibility for all our residents. We will work to incentivize new developments,
refurbish our historic buildings into livable spaces, and provide grants to first-time homebuyers. A home for every West Virginian is not just a goal; it is a commitment to the stability and prosperity of our families and our future.
I am committed to championing policies that support agricultural innovation, expand rural healthcare, bridge the digital divide, and preserve the natural beauty of our countryside. We will invest in infrastructure that connects our rural areas to the
broader economy, fostering opportunities that keep these communities vibrant. Together, we can ensure the voices from the fields are heard and that rural West Virginia continues to be a cornerstone of our state's identity and economy.

On Education:
Build pathways that connect education to local careers
We need a concerted strategy to retain our young talent and ensure they see a future in West Virginia. I am committed to building pathways that connect education to local careers, investing in tech and innovation hubs that keep our brightest minds
engaged, and enhancing cultural and recreational options that make staying in West Virginia not just a viable choice, but the preferred one. We must create an environment where our youth can flourish and see opportunities in their own communities.

On Families & Children:
Support families with comprehensive child care solutions
My mission in the Senate will be to advocate for comprehensive child care solutions that support our families, fortify our workforce, and foster our future. This means championing policies that subsidize child-care costs, enhance the quality of care,
and build the infrastructure of care facilities our state desperately needs. It's time to ensure that child care becomes a cornerstone of our social infrastructure, as fundamental as the roads we travel on and the bridges that connect us.

On Free Trade:
I will support fair trade that benefits our workers
My vision involves harnessing our traditional manufacturing prowess while pivoting towards the industries of the future. In the Senate, I will fight for policies that drive innovation, support fair trade that benefits our workers, and craft foreign
policies that protect American interests from foreign dumping and other anti-competitive practices and promote global stability. Our work ethic is unmatched; our policies should match this strength.

On Health Care:
Expand Medicaid; bring down prescription drug costs
The mountains of West Virginia should echo with the sound of prosperity, not the despair of those who cannot afford their medical bills. Our state, beloved yet troubled by health disparities, demands a champion who will stand up for comprehensive
healthcare reform. My mission will be to spearhead policies that expand Medicaid, support rural hospitals, and bring down prescription drug costs. Let's unite to deliver a healthcare system that is as resilient and enduring as the people it serves.

On Homeland Security:
Beyond healthcare, our veterans deserve robust support
I will fight for improved access to healthcare for all veterans, ensuring that our V.A. facilities not only meet but exceed the needs of our heroes. Beyond healthcare, our veterans deserve robust support as they reintegrate into civilian life, including
job training programs, educational opportunities, and community support systems that recognize and respect their unique contributions to our country and our commonwealth. We owe them a debt of gratitude.

On Jobs:
Strengthen organized labor's power of collective bargaining
I will stand firm in the Senate to champion legislation that revitalizes our middle class and not only protects but also strengthens organized labor's power of collective bargaining. This means advocating for labor laws that meet the moment--laws that
protect the right to organize, promote fair wages, and ensure a safe workplace. It's about building an economy where prosperity is shared, where every West Virginian can find stable ground and reach for new heights.

On Social Security:
Oppose any attempts to undermine these critical programs
Our seniors, who have given their best years to building a brighter future for us all, deserve to retire with the dignity and security they have earned. Yet, today, they face an uncertain future as the pillars of Social Security and
Medicare show signs of strain. In the Senate, I will oppose any attempts to undermine these critical programs and will work tirelessly to improve and expand them by making sure they have sustainable funding sources.
