Don Tracy on Government Reform

 

 


Lower business costs by cutting excess regulation

I will also work to improve the economy by streamlining regulation and supporting small businesses, manufacturers, and farmers throughout Illinois. We need to lower the cost-of-doing-business by cutting excess regulation. And we need to support American manufacturers and farmers, ensuring they have a fair, level playing field when they compete in the global marketplace.

Require valid photo ID in order to vote

All three said they would support a proposal that would require voters to present valid photo identification to vote but stopped short of supporting Trump's recent call to nationalize elections, which are run by states under the U.S. Constitution. "With 50 states, it's hard to hack," Tracy said.

Supports term limits for members of Congress

I do support term limits for members of Congress, including senators. Washington works best when it has citizen-legislators, not career politicians. I support a constitutional amendment that would place a reasonable limit on senators' six-year terms, so new ideas can emerge while still allowing time to gain experience and get real work done for the people they represent.
