In 2020, over 60% of Republicans believe the election was stolen. We cannot continue to have disputed elections and expect this country to survive. Ensuring election integrity in the future is incredibly simple if we simply have the political will to do it.</p><p>Arizona’s audit revealed numerous deficiencies and issues with our elections, on a scope and scale sufficient to have changed the outcome of 2020. We must address these problems immediately, or nothing else we do will matter.</p><p>First, require voter ID on all ballots. One person, one vote. There is nothing fairer than that, and – despite what the mainstream media says – voter ID requirements are overwhelmingly popular with every single Party and demographic. 75% of Americans support requiring voter ID, as do 69% of Black Americans, and 82% of other minorities. 60% of Democrats, 77% of Independents, and 89% of Republicans support voter ID. The only people who don't want to see voter ID implemented are progressive activists and the media. </p><p>Second, require pre-printed paper ballots – no printing ballots on-site at polling stations which increases the likelihood of individuals casting multiple ballots.</p><p>Third, take all equipment that uses software out of the counting process. As we have seen in recent weeks with the pipeline hack, and the meat-plant hack: if it has software, it can be hacked. Elections are simply too important to take that risk. Using analog optical scanners will be more personnel and time-consuming than using computers – so we pay for the personnel and resources we need. </p><p>Fourth, elections should be followed with regular, highly accurate audits of the results to ensure transparency and bolster public trust. </p><h2><strong>Pro-Life</strong></h2><p>I am pro-life and believe that every life, starting at conception, is worth saving. The pro-life movement stands strongly in support of providing the resources necessary for mothers to embrace life, as do I. As Governor, I will put significant new resources into helping pregnant women choose life-saving options including adoption, parental support and guidance, and neo-natal treatment. </p><p>Nationwide, there are over 2700 pregnancy care centers that serve millions of women annually, and government programs like the Texas Alternatives to Abortion Program which provides counseling, material assistance, care coordination, and housing support. I will ensure Arizona matches and exceeds all other states in supporting these centers and the amazing work they are doing. </p><p>Further, it takes two to make a baby. Many fathers report extreme distress in the wake of an abortion, however, fathers must also be held accountable and directed to support women they have impregnated throughout their pregnancy, not just after the baby is born, and I will seek to reform Arizona’s laws to ensure they do. </p><p>In short, we must ensure that any barriers to a mother choosing life are removed. </p><p>But we must also support people who choose to act responsibly when they are not ready to have a child, and that means making all common forms of birth control available over-the-counter, and providing assistance to those who are financially unable to pay for their own birth control. </p><h2><strong>Secure the Border - Finish the Wall</strong></h2><p>As Americans, we welcome all legal immigrants into our country, but what we have now is a security and humanitarian crisis. International criminal cartels are fully in control of Northern Mexico and have turned the flood of people wanting to get into the United States into just another lucrative revenue source to be exploited – they are raping, ransoming, and extorting some of the most vulnerable people in the world, and they won't stop until we stop them.</p><p>That's why I am committed to finishing the wall. I will not let this suffering continue.</p><p>As Governor, I will direct the Arizona National Guard to deploy along the border and assist Border Patrol for as long as it takes to get control of this disaster. Additionally, while our Department of Public Safety doesn't have a direct role in immigration enforcement, they are a frontline resource in combating sex and human trafficking and drug smuggling. I will expand and redeploy elite elements of DPS to our border to coordinate a massive increase in our efforts to stop these evils. Further, trespassing is a crime, and another area where DPS can take a leading role in addressing illegal immigration as many crossers traversing private land. </p><p>But we can go further, I will empower Arizona sheriffs to deputize Arizonans, including retired law enforcement, military, and others with critical training, to assist DPS in enforcing the law and securing our border. Additionally, I will allocate state resources to assist in funding these programs as well as provide hiring and retention bonuses to our law enforcement agencies to help address their staffing shortages.</p><p>While the Biden administration may turn a blind eye to all the crime and suffering illegal immigration is bringing with it, we will not. We will enforce our laws every time, without fail. And we will keep the pressure on Washington. </p><h2><strong>Restoring Quality of Life for Arizona: Tackling Homelessness </strong></h2><p>Homelessness in Arizona is increasing at a staggering rate. Homeless encampments, drugged-out and deranged individuals, and the extensive damage they are doing to the quality of life in our communities has spread far beyond our biggest cities, even impacting rural and mountain communities like Pine, Payson, and Flagstaff.</p><p>Government programs and homeless service providers are not making the problem better. Instead, they have essentially given up and are enabling chronic street homelessness, drug use, and mental illness. They ignore the impacts on citizens, families, and communities.</p><p>I am proposing the most extensive, aggressive and comprehensive approach to addressing homelessness and providing real treatment and support to people who are willing to accept it anywhere in the country. They will have beds, treatment, support, and hope. Those who refuse will find something else entirely: a state that simply isn’t willing to tolerate their abuses any more.</p><h2><strong>Teaching for Success</strong></h2><p>Arizona students need a great education, they deserve a great education. I will stop the "woke" curriculum overtaking our schools and ensure our kids are given the tools they need to grow and be successful in every phase of life.</p><p>No child should ever be taught that their skin color, or where they come from, is what defines them. That is racism, pure and simple, no matter what anyone wants to call it. It needs to stop. This craziness is teaching kids to be suspicious of, even fear, their classmates. It's teaching them to judge every single aspect of life through a racial lens. And it's destroying their self-confidence. It must stop.</p><p>Teacher’s unions and school boards that continue to push this terrible ideology while trying to close schools again at every opportunity must be called out, voted out, and shut down. We’ve seen the abuses in this system, and what these radicals are doing: keeping parents in the dark, spying on them, and labeling them terrorists. When I become governor, all that ends. I will use the full power of my office to shine a light on these abuses and send the abusers running.</p><p>We’re going to get back to teaching American history, not anti-American history. That doesn't mean ignoring our flaws, but it does mean standing up to the revisionist attacks on the past progressives are using to promote their ideology.</p><p>Instead, kids need real, quality education that starts with the basics and ensures students have a complete grasp of them, before moving on to the advanced learning they need to succeed in a high-tech, fast paced world. Schools, and students, must be held to the highest standard, and the excuses for not doing so need to stop, also.</p><p>As Governor, I will ensure that our schools have the resources and support they need to give our kids their very best chance at a lifetime of success. I will ensure that parents have every available option to give their kids the best education possible – great public schools, great charter schools, great technical schools, and real support for homeschool parents.</p><p>We're going to fund students not systems, and replace woke curriculum with education that gives our kids the real-world tools they need to achieve their dreams.</p><h2><strong>Second Amendment</strong></h2><p>Shall. Not. Be. Infringed.</p><h2><strong>Protecting Local Business, Not Box Stores</strong></h2><p>When the pandemic hit, states across the country – including Arizona - put the hammer down on small businesses; forcing their closure, limiting their occupancy, and requiring costly modifications to their operations. At the same time, they bent over backwards to accommodate the needs of many big box stores and online retailers. The damage those policies did will be felt for decades. </p><p>I care far more about the local retired couple who poured their life savings into a restaurant and then had government take it away from them than I do the shareholders of Walmart or Amazon. I will never allow our state to do anything like this, ever again. </p><p>No shutdowns, no restrictions, no favorites.</p><p>In a public health crisis, or any crisis, it is the responsibility of the government to give our citizens the very best, most accurate information possible, and allow them to make their own informed decisions. I trust you, the people of Arizona, to do what's best for you, your family, and your neighbors over bureaucrats who are mostly interested in protecting their careers.</p><h2><strong>Religious Freedom </strong></h2><p>As Americans, we have the freedom to worship where, when, and how we choose. I will work with our legislature to pass a law preventing any government interference of this fundamental liberty under any circumstances. No governor, no Mayor, no board will have the right to shut down religious observances or worship. Ever.</p><h2><strong>Back the Blue</strong></h2><p>This awful, insidious "defund the police" movement needs to be stopped in its tracks. There is a direct correlation between this movement and the explosion of violent crime happening across the country. The leaders of this effort have proven time and again they don't care about poor people, or people of color – if they did they wouldn't ignore and excuse the horrific gang violence spreading through our cities that disproportionately damages poor and minority communities. It is not compassionate or just to leave good people at the mercy of criminals. </p><p>I won't give an inch to people who want to tear down law enforcement for their own benefit. Not only will I ensure that State Shared Revenues are withheld from any city, town, or county that defunds their police department, I will push to include significant grants to local governments in our annual budget for the recruitment, training, and retention of great police officers.</p><p>We need great cops, and we need them to have all the tools and training they need to perform their jobs safely and compassionately. Instead of defunding police, I will fully fund police. </p><p>Arizona's next governor must #BackTheBlue. They put their lives on the line for us, making sure they know how much we honor and respect that commitment is the least we can do. </p><h2><strong>Preserving Rural Communities</strong></h2><p>Arizona's rural and farming and ranching communities are being ignored by politicians who know they can get all the money and votes they need in Maricopa County. I will not do that. Rural and farming communities remain the backbone, and one of the great economic engines, of our state. I have been all over the state in recent months, talking with people on their farms, in their stores, and on the streets of virtually every small town in Arizona, and it is clear they are getting the short end of the stick. </p><p>Under my leadership, we’re going to turn this around. Many family farms are under pressure due to rising water costs (and increasing scarcity), taxes, and regulations. As Governor, I will push to reduce property taxes, secure a new long-term source of additional water for our ranching and farming communities to benefit from, and push back against EPA overreach and their absurd interpretation of their Waters of the U.S. rules that are making it impossible for farmers and ranchers to best utilize their lands. These folks understand how important protecting our environment is – it’s their land we’re talking about – they don’t need some bureaucrat in Washington DC breathing over their shoulder every time they water a field or graze a herd. </p><h2><strong>Water</strong></h2><p>Water is perhaps the single most critical issue facing Arizona today. Too many people now rely on a single watershed that is unable to support them, and our population is continuing to grow. Ranchers and farmers are already suffering from the effects - seeing significant cuts in their water allocations from the Colorado River and watching their groundwater dry up.</p><p>The next Governor of Arizona must be a leader on this issue, not only for Arizona, but for the future of the entire Southwest and Northern Mexico. We must seek and immediately implement both long and short-term solutions to address a rapidly growing crisis that threatens the future viability of our agricultural heritage, our manufacturing growth, and our population alike.</p><p>After meeting with experts across Arizona on this issue, I am committed to being the Governor who addresses Arizona's future water needs by stepping up to lead a national and regional effort to ensure Arizona and the entire Southwest have all the water we need to continue to grow into the future.</p><p>Short term, that means increasing our storage capacity on the Salt & Verde River system by improving and expanding our dams and reservoirs, capturing storm runoffs, lining and covering our canals, and properly managing the forests and wildlife areas surrounding these critical rivers to prevent forest fires which cause significant damage to the river ecosystem. We also have to support responsible transfer of water rights, especially working with the various tribal nations throughout Arizona. Lastly, we need to expand effluent capture and purification. </p><p>We do a lot of this stuff well already, and it’s one area where both Phoenix and Tucson have been real leaders. But, long term, we need more water. Period. </p><p>Our population, along with that of the entire Southwest and Northern Mexico continues to grow. Unless we develop a new, sustainable source of water we will soon be facing a very bleak future. Instead, the future is desalination. Israel - facing very similar circumstances as Arizona in regards to a growing population and dwindling water supply - has proven, and improved, this technology to the point that the majority of water now used in Israel comes from desalination, and an Israeli company just built the largest desalination plant in the Western Hemisphere outside of San Diego</p><p>This is proven technology. It works. What will the cost be? Right now, we don't know. In either case, the cost and scale will require Arizona to forge agreements with the federal government, other Western states, and Mexico. Whatever the price tag ends up being, it will be far less than the cost of a future without the water we need to survive.</p><p>We can't do it alone, but we can do it. And the next Governor of Arizona must be the leader of this fight.</p><p>The upside is potentially enormous. An ample source of new water would carry with it the possibility of completely transforming the economies - and ecology - of this region. With plentiful water and extraordinary amounts of sunlight, Arizona would have about the best growing conditions of anywhere on the planet. Israel is rapidly turning the Negev Desert into one of the world's great agricultural areas, we can do the same. But the benefits wouldn't stop there. Reducing our dependence on existing groundwater and river resources will drastically improve the environmental conditions of those watersheds, and our region as a whole.</p><h2><strong>Protect & Support Our Military Base</strong></h2><p>Arizona is home to seven military bases and installations, which have contributed tremendously to the prosperity of our state, and the safety of our citizens. Maintaining and expanding Luke AFB, Davis-Monthan AFB, Fort Huachuca, the Barry M. Goldwater Range, Yuma Proving Ground, Camp Navajo, and MCAS Yuma as well as our National Guard installations is critical to our future.</p><p>I will work with our representatives in Washington to ensure the continuation of current operations, and advocate for expanding the missions and personnel assigned to each. The first step to doing so is to help the Guard get the approval they are seeking to expand their footprint at Sky Harbor Airport.</p><p>This is an essential expansion of the Guard facilities to make it possible for them to service the next generation of aerial refueling tankers, which are too large to fit in their current hangers. Failing to do so puts current squadron deployments at Luke and DM at significant risk of being relocated to other bases. We cannot allow that to happen. As Governor, I will push hard to get this done, and do everything I can to support the men and women of our armed services here in Arizona.</p><h2><strong>Cancel Culture & Censorship</strong></h2><p>We’ve allowed a handful of perpetually-aggrieved emotional infants to hijack our language and culture while trying to dictate the words we speak and the thoughts we are allowed to hold. We used to call these people what they are: mentally unbalanced. We humored them, but we ignored them. Then along came Twitter, and suddenly tech companies, media, schools, and governments decided it was better to give the unbalanced what they wanted than ignore a bunch of unhinged tweets. In turn, these self-appointed high-priests of cancellation are making everyone else’s lives miserable. Why are we allowing this? The vast majority of Arizonans, and Americans generally, abhor political correctness and cancel culture.</p><p>This isn’t a game anymore. This is about your freedom. Freedom from censorship. Freedom from oppression. Freedom from thought-control. Freedom to not be afraid that a slip of the tongue today, or twenty years ago, will be used to take your job, your life away. The unholy alliance between cancel culture, big tech, higher education, and government must be broken.</p><p>As Governor, I will lead the way to stopping this assault on rationality.</p><p>First, any government in the state of Arizona, including publicly funded schools, that engages in limiting freedom of speech beyond the traditional boundaries of incitement to violence and so forth, will immediately lose all state shared revenue, state grants, etc. Not one dollar of state taxpayer money will go to support these limitations on speech and assaults on freedom.</p><p>Second, businesses or companies that engage in cancel culture and censorship will not be eligible to receive any tax breaks in the State of Arizona, including property tax abatements and other incentives typically offered by local municipalities or universities as part of development deals.</p><p>Pure and simple: we are going to end taxpayer subsidization of these attacks on our freedom, conscience, and free will.</p></div></div><div id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1646111155409_8728" class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html"><div class="sqs-block-content"><h2><strong>Arizona In the Space Race</strong></h2></div></div><div id="block-yui_3_17_2_1_1646111155409_8152" class="sqs-block html-block sqs-block-html"><div class="sqs-block-content"><p>American space exploration and science has demonstrated the ingenuity, capability and resolve of a free people to conquer seeming unsurmountable problems. From the Apollo moon landings and International Space Station, to the Hubble Space Telescope and Mars Rovers our nation has led the world in expanding humankind’s understanding of the cosmos for more than half a century. NASA’s accomplishments have also inspired millions of children to pursue careers in STEM fields.</p><p>Arizona has made significant contributions toward our nation’s success in space. The University of Arizona and Arizona State University have designed, built, and supported a variety of satellites and deep space probes. NASA’s upcoming Psyche mission, the first visit to a potentially valuable metallic asteroid, is headed by an ASU professor with support from other university faculty and labs. ASU has launched the world’s first business degree program focused on space. </p><p>The economic, technological, and societal return on our nation’s investments in space have been nothing short of incredible. Satellites track our weather, hurricanes and wildfires. Medical telemetry, cordless power tools, memory foam, and hundreds of other technologies have crossed over into the commercial sphere. Space research supported the development of solar power, fuel cells, computing, and the internet. Space technologies have also provided our warfighters with unparalleled advantages. America’s space navigation, communications and surveillance satellites are essential on the battlefield. Aid and rescue operations across the globe also now rely on many of these same innovations. </p><p>President Trump had the vision to see that the space domain now required its own, dedicated service of professionals as well. I am honored to support the Guardians of the United States Space Force in their mission to protect our freedom around the world and beyond. </p><p>Arizona can and should be at the forefront of developing the next generations of these technologies, and many others. Space manufacturing promises to revolutionize communications, computing, and medicine in the very near future. Miraculous materials produced in zero-g on the International Space Station or upcoming commercial stations may include vastly superior fiber optic cables and computing components, innovative drugs, artificial retinas, and a staggering array of new materials.</p><p>Today, commercial space companies are taking the lead in developing the final business frontier. While the Tucson area is already home to several new space startups, Arizona’s open land and business friendly environment provides us with the opportunity to capture more of what promises to be the most exciting growth industry of the 21st century.</p><p>As governor, I will work with the legislature to ensure that Arizona attracts existing and startup firms in the fast-growing commercial space sector. These firms generate high paying jobs for all skill levels from machine operators to actual rocket scientist. The construction, supply and service requirements for these firms can drive employment in many of our rural communities, and across our state. Arizona must embrace these opportunities, and pair them with our critical investments in, and support of, developing Machine Learning, Virtual Reality, Artificial Intelligence, and Bio-Medical fields.</p><p>In a single generation, Arizona has transitioned from an economy powered by tourism and construction, to one driven by high-tech innovation. It’s time to blast off and put Arizona into the Space Race.</p><h2><strong>Vaccines and Covid Mandates </strong></h2><p>I think it is extremely wrong for government, business and schools to mandate this vaccine.</p><p>If the vaccine wasn’t available and available to everyone this would be different. But anyone concerned can protect themselves. Anyone can go out and get the shot today. They can get it free. They can get it all over town in every community in the state. You can get it at a drive-up site, grocery stores, pharmacies, medical facilities. Access to the vaccine is universal in this country. And people have a responsibility to protect themselves—they do not have a right to impose their choices on others.</p><p>I am completely against any sort of mandate—especially ones that cost someone an opportunity to further their education or earn a living. As your governor, I will absolutely seek to ban vaccine mandates across the board.</p><p>If elected, I won’t take office until January of 2023; in the meantime, I encourage everyone concerned about his medical totalitarianism to contact governor Ducey’s office immediately and tell him to call a special session of the legislature to immediately draft and pass legislation protecting the medical freedom and privacy of all Arizonans in every field.</p><p>My policy as governor would be to educate the people of Arizona on any public health risks and then allow them to make the best choices to protect themselves, their families and their businesses, while focusing our resources on protecting and supporting those individuals who – due to age or illness – are truly at the most risk. </p><h2><strong>Don't California our Arizona</strong></h2><p>I want to see Arizona remain a great symbol of the American West. We don't want to be some homogenized, unrecognizable state, a second California. California is the "Progressive Dream" realized in full after decades of one-Party Democrat control. And what does that dream look like? It's a deliberate, unmoving traffic jam next to a homeless encampment where people are using the sidewalk as a toilet and shooting up in front of a cop who isn't allowed to do anything about it.</p><p>The list of progressive policies that have failed is comprehensive. They've used "Vision Zero" to deliberately tie traffic in knots in an attempt to make driving so inconvenient people are forced onto buses. They've used "Justice Reform" to turn criminals loose on the population to commit crime without consequence. Their version of "Housing Equity" has made it so costly and impossible to build new housing that they've created an artificial housing crisis and tens of thousands of newly homeless people. The list goes on. Their homelessness policies are a complete failure and actively enable long-term street homelessness, vagrancy, and drug use. Their taxes, regulations, and wasteful spending are driving businesses away at a record pace and preventing new ones from getting off the ground. People are fleeing in droves. </p><p>We can't allow liberal policies to California our Arizona – if we do there will be nowhere left to run.</p><p>_______________</p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10649652901,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}10649652901,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="379" alt="10649652901?profile=RESIZE_400x" /></a></p></div></div></div>Joey Gilbert, NV, Governorhttps://defendourunion.org/candidates/joey-gilbert-nv-governor2022-07-11T02:02:33.000Z2022-07-11T02:02:33.000ZDavene Meehanhttps://defendourunion.org/members/DaveneMeehan<div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/10635187699?profile=RESIZE_180x180&width=174"></div><div><h1 class="chakra-text css-1v5j2yf"><a href="https://gilbertforgovernor.com/policies/" target="_blank">MY POLICY PROMISES TO NEVADA</a></h1><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10635188665,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}10635188665,RESIZE_584x{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="10635188665?profile=RESIZE_584x" width="397" height="290" /></a></p><h1 class="h1"><span style="font-size:12pt;"><a href="https://rumble.com/v1b9cv7-joey-gilbert-.html" target="_blank">Joey Gilbert - 𝐖𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐦 (𝐄𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐮𝐝 𝐔𝐩𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞)</a></span></h1><p><span style="font-size:2em;">Election Integrity</span></p><p class="chakra-text css-10l2ap">As your Governor, I will do everything in my power to secure and protect the integrity of our elections.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">Election experts are virtually unanimous in their conviction that these machines have NEVER been fully reliable and harbor flaws that can be exploited.

It helps neither the homeless individuals NOR their communities.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">In Reno, government officials are ignoring federal law and allowing hundreds of homeless men and women to illegally camp on and pollute the primary water source for 500,000 Washoe County residents. This also stops immediately when I’m Governor.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">I agree with how the chronically homeless themselves describe the situation: 90% of them are NOT willing to change the lifestyles that KEEP them on the street.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">Food, employment, shelter, mental health services, and drug/alcohol treatment programs are abundant.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">I will enforce the laws firmly and impartially so they can choose to be arrested or utilize the social services that can save their lives.</p><h1 class="chakra-text css-1usky10">Immigration</h1><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">The humanitarian crisis of human trafficking is putting millions of American lives at risk. It is also endangering millions of lives of those being trafficked. Both of these crisis will stop when I’m Governor.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">Nevada has the highest unemployment in the nation and cannot afford to take asylum seekers, I will never allow a sanctuary city within our borders.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">My mission is to protect American jobs and ensure that LEGAL immigration is the only way into our state.</p><h1 class="chakra-text css-1usky10">Abortion</h1><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">Nine thousand annual abortions in Nevada are a tragedy.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">It’s also terrible that thousands of unwanted babies are born to unprepared and unsupported Nevada women each year.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">We must address the SOURCE of this problem. I will work with parents, churches, schools, and community organizations to more effectively teach our children strong moral values, respect for human life, and themselves. </p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">I will also promote community programs to support at-risk pregnant women.</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">This would greatly decrease the number of unwanted pregnancies and prevent women from having to decide between an abortion and raising an unwanted child.</p><h1 class="chakra-text css-1usky10">Re-Establish Nevada as FIGHT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD</h1><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">The Nevada State Athletic Commission will be the Gold Standard for the regulation and safety of athletes and combat sports worldwide. </p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">No longer will we lose fights to Texas, FL, or Mexico due to the costs involved to promote fights in Nevada. As a Champion Boxer I know the fighting world inside and out and it will be a great honor to solidfy Las Vegas as the fight capital of the world. </p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">We will welcome promoters of all shapes and sizes, and combatants at all levels to participate in the excitement and energy of fighting in the fight capital of the world: LAS VEGAS!</p><p class="chakra-text css-1u61bck">____________<a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10635195676,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}10635195676,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}" alt="10635195676?profile=RESIZE_400x" width="379" /></a></p></div>Doug Mastriano, PA, Governorhttps://defendourunion.org/candidates/doug-mastriano-pa-governor2022-07-08T14:44:06.000Z2022-07-08T14:44:06.000ZDavene Meehanhttps://defendourunion.org/members/DaveneMeehan<div><img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/10630510477?profile=RESIZE_400x&width=232"></div><div><p><a href="http://doug4gov.com/plan" target="_blank">The Plan</a></p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10630513258,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="align-full" src="{{#staticFileLink}}10630513258,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}" width="214" alt="10630513258?profile=RESIZE_400x" /></a></p><p><iframe title="vimeo-player" src="https://player.vimeo.com/video/691787921?h=4ff38a7f2c" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></p><h2>THE PLAN</h2><p>Restore Freedom.

would push for the following election protocols to ensure a secure election process:<br /><br />Dump voter rolls legally with the oversight of the Texas Secretary of State and re-register legal voters<br /><br />No computers or voting machines allowed at polling locations. <br /><br />Premises must be throughly searched before counting starts to ensure there are no hidden boxes of suspect ballots. <br /><br />Officials and buildings surrounded by trusted people for 48 hours (or until count is announced) to ensure no strange vehicles turn up with ‘found’ ballots. <br /><br />Vote secure paper only ballots. <br /><br />Voters must be verified with government issued ID.<br /><br />Absentee only to those with prior, proven identity and valid reason to vote absentee such as military, first responder, medical, correctional, infrastructure employee, or homebound and must be received by the county at least 3 days prior to election day. <br /><br />Signature matching required on absentee ballots. <br /><br />All ballots kept in open secured area with 24x7 camera and all counting done in open area with 24x7 camera on all angles. <br /><br />Ballots are never out of view. <br /><br />Adjudication is done by teams of all parties and verified by a second team before added to the totals and again is done live on camera. <br /><br />Voting ends and ballots are collected at midnight—period. No waiting on the postal service or late night deliveries. <br /><br />No boxes are pulled out from under tables after observers are sent home. <br /><br />No more electronic poll books with live updates. <br /><br />Voter registration should be complete and in paper poll books at least 2 weeks prior to election. <br /><br />If your 18th birthday, naturalization certificate, felony removal, etc. is within those 2 weeks—you just have to wait until next time. <br /><br />Create smaller precincts. <br /><br />Votes are counted at the precinct and called into the county clerk. <br /><br />Ballots are collected from the precincts and delivered to the respective county clerks to canvass & full forensic audit—not a recount and not a limited audit again with 24x7 cameras and security. <br /><br />If they insist on the scanners—we insist on publicly available ballot images with an individualized code and tracking.</p><h5 class="card-title text-uppercase font-weight-bold"><a href="https://prather2022.com/issues/standing-up-for-our-veterans">EDUCATION</a></h5><p class="card-text">When it comes to raising kids, family is better than government.</p><h5 class="card-title text-uppercase font-weight-bold"><a href="https://prather2022.com/issues/defend-the-constitution">ENERGY</a></h5><p class="card-text">The power grid in Texas will continue to be an issue until something REAL is done about it.</p><h5 class="card-title text-uppercase font-weight-bold"><a href="https://prather2022.com/issues/border-security">BORDER SECURITY</a></h5><p class="card-text">Texas is a citizens first state.</p><h5 class="card-title text-uppercase font-weight-bold"><a href="https://prather2022.com/issues/farming-ranching">FARMING & RANCHING</a></h5><p class="card-text">A strong agricultural base leads to healthy thriving communities.</p><h5 class="card-title text-uppercase font-weight-bold"><a href="https://prather2022.com/issues/trafficking">TRAFFICKING</a></h5><p class="card-text">As Governor I will move aggressively to stop the trafficking of Texas children.

Trump from 2017 to 2019. A trusted confidant of the President, Sarah advised him on everything from press and communications strategy to personnel and policy. For two and a half years, Sarah worked closely with the president, battling with the media, working with lawmakers and CEOs, and accompanying the president on every foreign trip, including dozens of meetings with foreign leaders. Sarah is only the third woman – and the very first mom – to ever hold the job of White House Press Secretary.</p><p>Upon her departure from the administration, President Trump described Sarah as “irreplaceable,” a “warrior” and “very special person with extraordinary talents, who has done an incredible job.”</p><p>Sarah joined the Trump campaign as a senior advisor in February 2016 during the Republican primary, and continued in that role through the President’s historic defeat of Hillary Clinton.</p><p>Sarah has previously worked in leadership roles for U.S. Senators, Governors, and presidential campaigns. In Arkansas, Sarah was a senior advisor to Senator Tom Cotton in 2014 when he defeated incumbent Democratic Senator Mark Pryor, and was campaign manager for Senator John Boozman in 2010 when he defeated incumbent Democratic Senator Blanche Lincoln. In 2007 and 2008, Sarah helped lead her father, former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, to victory in the Iowa Caucuses and seven other states as his national political director. Sarah served in the Department of Education during President George W. Bush‘s administration, and was campaign manager of the ONE campaign, a global non-profit founded by U2’s Bono to take action to end extreme poverty and preventable disease, particularly in Africa.</p><p>She is against sanctuary cities, vaccine/mask mandates, CRT, and biological males competing in female sports.

Divisions in families, communities, and congregations are testing the fabric of our carefully woven tapestry; a tapestry that has survived a Revolution, a Civil War, two World Wars, and a host of other catastrophic events. The divide is great, but our resolve is greater.</p><p>Imagine a land where it isn’t <em>politics as usual</em>, where people love and care for their neighbors... where crime drops significantly... where life is respected... where truth is pursued... and where each person is embraced and recognized. Imagine people from around the country desiring to move to that land to raise their families, start a new business, enjoy a retirement hobby, or benefit from a booming economy. Imagine this land being Michigan.</p><p>Dreams become reality when the process is right and when proven values are respected.

Weeks before Andrew announced his candidacy, the New York City Council continued its war on police and passed legislation to strip police officers of their federally-protected immunity. </p><p>This creates the potential for frivolous lawsuits and hesitancy within the police department to enforce the law effectively, thus making the streets more dangerous for law-abiding citizens. How can we expect police officers to respond to incidents, put themselves in danger, and make split-second decisions to protect themselves and New Yorkers without qualified immunity?

The national media focuses exclusively on New York City, where shootings have doubled since 2019, but this is not exclusive to the Big Apple. Buffalo’s violent crime rate now ranks in the top 15% of mid-sized cities. Crime has <em>nearly </em>doubled in Albany, and <em>more than </em>doubled in Syracuse. Finally, although Chicago holds a reputation for being one of the deadliest U.S cities, this year, Rochester is on pace to overtake the Windy City in violent crimes per capita.</p><p>Andrew will take on Albany to make sure that violent criminals that are prone to recidivism don’t walk free to plague New Yorker’s lives without paying their debt to society. Andrew believes that this is not primarily about punishment but accountability to the law. It is one of his priorities to pursue more ways to rehabilitate habitual offenders to break the cycle found in the criminal justice system. To this end, Andrew believes that judges should again have discretion in determining whether an offender is likely to commit another violent crime when determining whether they are eligible for bail.</p><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-a2bd9c4 elementor-widget elementor-widget-uael-infobox"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><div class="uael-module-content uael-infobox uael-imgicon-style-normal uael-infobox-center infobox-has-icon uael-infobox-icon-above-title uael-infobox-link-type-none"><div class="uael-infobox-left-right-wrap"><div class="uael-infobox-content"><div class="uael-infobox-title-wrap"><h3 class="uael-infobox-title elementor-inline-editing">Refund The Police</h3></div><div class="uael-infobox-text-wrap"> Over the last year, we have seen the cities and towns across New York that chose to “defund the police” experience more crime, not less.</div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-d2858e9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><p>New Yorkers cannot allow aggressive mob rule to dictate public policy anymore!

Andrew, along with most New York parents, knows this is blatantly false.</p><p>Whether it’s branded as Critical Race Theory, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), identity politics and its subsequent propaganda, divides our children and focuses on their ancestry, a practice that has no place in our schools.</p><p>Every New Yorker needs to learn the full history, good and bad, of New York, the United States, and the world without the corrupting fruit of ideology and activism. </p><p>This goes for progressive sex education and gender theories as well, which serve to confuse and indoctrinate our children at a young and impressionable age. </p><p>Instead of eliminating the gifted and talented programs to push ideology, Andrew will work to expand programs that work and allow more of our students to excel. In keeping with the belief that no child is the same, Andrew opposes Common Core. Any one-size-fits-all education system devised by bureaucrats and administrators will never adequately educate each unique student.</p><p>While Andrew attended Catholic schools throughout elementary and high school, one of the things that made an impression on the importance of education was the Cool Schools Initiative. Created by his Mom while she was First Lady of New York, Cool Schools used private funding to award two of the best performing New York City public schools each month.</p><p>Incentivizing competence and results instead of funding based on a non-merit system is the solution to the decaying quality of education in New York. It’s time for parents to take back control and join Andrew in spearheading the movement back to the basics, which includes strong and accessible STEM programs. </p><p>Under Governor Giuliani, New York children will receive an education without the woke ideology that has infiltrated our schools. This is how every New York child will reach their full potential as students, citizens, and individuals. Andrew wants OUR students to lead the world in education, not fall to the bottom percentile.</p><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-057829f elementor-widget-divider--view-line_text elementor-widget-divider--element-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><div class="elementor-divider"><h1 class="elementor-divider__text elementor-divider__element"><span style="font-size:12pt;">ECONOMY</span></h1></div></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-2a2e60a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><h3 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default"><span style="font-size:10pt;">DAY ONE ACTION ITEMS:</span></h3></div></div><div class="elementor-element elementor-element-1e15709 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading"><div class="elementor-widget-container"><h3 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default"><span style="font-size:10pt;">I.

When our Constitution is violated, we must reinforce and defend it, for the sake of not only America, but the free world and all of western civilization.</p><p>When laws are broken, we must prosecute the perpetrators. When corruption is at play, we must end it. When the Republicans encourage us to “move on,” and Democrats block justice at every turn, neither party is serving the people. Tim Ramthun courageously investigated claims of fraud and spoke the truth. He won’t stop.</p><p>Representatives are not supposed to consider themselves members of an exclusive club for their own benefit. They are elected to represent the people, and the people know there was outcome altering fraud during the 2020 election. Those who look the other way and have convinced others to do the same, have only added to the consequences we now all suffer. They share in the responsibility for rising crime, out of control inflation, un-checked corruption, and the waning of the very optimism and confidence that sustains human souls.</p><p>At the call of his constituents, Tim began to dig into the number one issue requested of him -- Election Integrity. His efforts quickly became the talk of the state. His Assembly office created a presentation that included a year's worth of evidence along with analysis and opinions from nationally renowned Constitutional attorneys and experts, all of whom agreed our founding fathers anticipated corruption and provided remedies for it. It’s not okay for Democrats or Republicans to simply parrot what they’ve been told to say about our ability to correct the score card. No other candidate has fought for truth and justice in election integrity.</p><p><strong>Tim Ramthun will let freedom ring!</strong></p><p><strong>Wisconsin's only America First Gubernatorial Candidate</strong></p><h4 class="tpclear">Expose and Combat Crime and Corruption</h4><p><span style="font-size:12pt;"><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}10639688869,RESIZE_400x{{/staticFileLink}}"><img class="issues-img align-right" title="Milwaukee Police on the Milwaukee River" src="https://www.tim-ramthun.com/img/combat-crime.jpg" alt="Milwaukee Police on the Milwaukee River" width="150" /></a></span></p><p>Law and Order are key to civil society and our American way of life – our quality of life, and our personal security.
