Issues: Tax Fairness

I disagree with President Obama’s assessment that Americans pay too little in taxes. There is a reason why the President wants higher taxes. Under his policies, the gap between what the government collects and what it spends has never been greater. As Nevada’s next Congressman, I pledge to advocate for changes in federal tax and spending policies that will reduce the burden on struggling American Families and the small businesses that are the backbone of our economy.

• Make the Bush Era Tax Cuts permanent
• Abolish the Estate Tax, to protect family farms, ranches and businesses
• Maintain the mortgage interest deduction on primary residences and second homes
• Reduce the marginal tax rates on individuals and small businesses
• Support a Balanced Budget Amendment to the US Constitution
