Adams Jr. Lou Scalpati Precinct 445 Chairman Ivan A. Andarza Reid Rousselot Platform initiatives that will appear on Republican primary ballots PROPOSITION #1: PHOTO ID The Texas legislature should make it a priority to protect the integrity of our election process by enacting legislation that requires voters to provide valid photo identification in order to cast a ballot in any and all elections conducted in the State of Texas. BALLOT PROPOSITION #2: CONTROLLING GOVERNMENT GROWTH Every government body in Texas should be required to limit any annual increase in its budget and spending to the combined increase of population and inflation unless it first gets voter approval to exceed the allowed annual growth or in the case of an official emergency. BALLOT PROPOSITION #3: CUTTING FEDERAL INCOME TAXES In addition to aggressively eliminating irresponsible federal spending, Congress should empower American citizens to stimulate the economy by Congress cutting federal income taxes for all federal taxpayers, rather than spending hundreds of billions of dollars on so-called “federal economic stimulus”. BALLOT PROPOSITION #4: PUBLIC ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF GOD The use of the word “God”, prayers, and the Ten Commandments should be allowed at public gatherings and public educational institutions, as well as be permitted on government buildings and property. BALLOT PROPOSITION #5: SONOGRAMS The Texas Legislature should enact legislation requiring a sonogram to be performed and shown to each mother about to undergo a medically unnecessary, elective abortion. |
I don’t learn about you, but I’ve been looking forward to this day for almost a couple of years. There is a lots of good news out presently there: AFSCME and the Democrat Congressional Campaign Committee taking out loans to fuel the attack ads; Barney Frank financing himself $200, 000. despite having their own money they don’t know when to prevent spending, why should we expect they can do any better by using ours?
