Past and present Senate candidates from Michigan: on Homeland Security

John James: Help prepare our veterans for re-entry into society

Marcia Squier: Cut the military budget by at least 50%

A: Strongly oppose- I propose we cut the military budget by at least 50%.

Marcia Squier: Reappropriate military spending to social needs

Mike Bishop: Maintain a numerically superior nuclear arsenal

Bishop: Strongly Agree

Debbie Stabenow: Push to pass the 9/11 Report

STABENOW: we need to push and pass the 9/11 Report. I’ve lead the effort to fight for those things that allow our firefighters and police what they need to do their job and keep us safe. We have tripled the number of border security. I’ve brought in dollars for sheriffs across the state, including Mike.

BOUCHARD: That’s just more talk-versus-reality in Washington. I sit on Committee that represents law enforcement - she’s never visited. We need someone who understands security. Security funding has turned into pork barrel spending. They are well intentioned, but no results. If you don’t fix a problem - people die.

Debbie Stabenow: Critical balance between staying safe and keeping our rights

BOUCHARD: We need to keep our state safe. We can’t give up basic rights to stay safe. I have very big differences than her. I’m a member of the joint terrorism task force with the FBI - what can I do personally to mitigate and respond to the need. There’s a list of things that they need to do and fix.

STABENOW: I’m a member of the Banking Committee that tracks money of terrorists. There is a critical balance between what it takes to stay safe and keep our rights. I’m proud of having the Detroit Regional Chamber’s endorsement because of protecting businesses in Michigan. I’m championing an effort with Congressional colleagues to protect our middle class way of life.
