Amanda Chase on Government Reform

 

 


If Trump not made president, declare martial law

Referring to Biden, Chase wrote, "Not my President and never will be."

"The American people aren't fools. We know you cheated to win and we'll never accept these results. Fair elections we can accept but cheating to win; never. It's not over yet. So thankful President Trump has a backbone and refuses to concede. President Trump should declare martial law as recommended by General Flynn." ["Martial law" means the Constitution is suspended, replaced by military rule --ed.].

Introduced term limits to stop career politicians

Amanda Chase consistently opposed all tax and fee increases, has voted against government takeover of healthcare and every year since she took office, she has introduced term limit legislation to stop career politicians. She will continue to be a tireless advocate for limited, transparent and fiscally responsible government.

Prefers gubernatorial primary to nominating convention

Amanda Chase reversed course, announcing plans to seek the Republican nomination for Virginia governor instead of running as an independent. Chase threatened to join the 2021 race as an independent candidate after the Republican Party decided to determine its candidate through a statewide convention. Chase said she is still advocating for the party to hold a primary but was concerned that running as an independent would split the Republican vote and guarantee a Democratic victory.

Admits no proof of her claim of overvoting in Virginia

Chase, trying to prove there's voting fraud in Virginia, says Chesterfield's Southside precinct is infamous for logging more votes than there are voters. Election records show the strongly-Democratic precinct has never had a voter turnout greater than 70% in its 12-year history. Presented with statistics, Chase says of her claim "maybe it didn't happen," and "I wouldn't put any credence in what I was saying." Chase's voting fraud claim is fatuous and inflammatory. We rate it Pants on Fire!

Champion of small, limited government

Amanda Chase is champion of small government and allowing you to keep more of your own money. She consistently opposed all tax and fee increases, has voted against government takeover of healthcare and every year since she took office, she has introduced term limit legislation to stop career politicians. Amanda is also a staunch defender of religious freedom who supports legislation that would put our national motto "In God We Trust" in public schools.

Disallow no-excuse absentee voting for all elections

Legislative Summary:HB1: Permits any registered voter to vote by absentee ballot in any election in which he is qualified to vote. The bill removes the current list of statutory reasons under which a person may be entitled to vote by absentee ballot.

These pieces of legislation include creating a permanent absentee vote-by-mail program, removing the excuse requirement for absentee voting, enacting same-day registration, establishing Election Day as a state holiday...
