GEORGIA NEEDS A FIGHTER TO PROTECT OUR FUNDAMENTAL CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS
I took an oath to protect our Constitution from enemies both foreign and domestic, and I can guarantee that as Governor you will have no greater defender of your fundamental, God-given rights. First and foremost, as a Christian, combat veteran and a father, I have seen first hand how precious and fragile life is. I promise to sign any piece of legislation that further protects the lives of the unborn. Secondly, I know what it's like to be in harm's way. When I was overseas I didn’t just have a gun in my hand—I had one on my side. The Second Amendment is a recognition that the right to self-defense is a God-given right. It is also the right that protects all other rights, and you can rest assured I will always fight the liberal left and their anti-gun agenda.

GOVERNMENT SPENDING ISN'T THE ANSWER
We all want to help people, so let’s do it! The government has been spending billions of dollars attempting to lift people out of poverty for years, and it’s not working. It’s not working because poverty cannot be fixed with money alone. We have spent billions driving our citizens further into poverty and further away from the American dream, self-government, and personal responsibility. I will address this! We are going to stop pushing people to depend on the government to change their lives because simply put, it doesn’t work. It also pulls tax dollars away from initiatives in which taxpayers expect the government to deliver results. As Governor, I will lead on prioritizing education, public safety, and transportation in our state budget, and we will cut wasteful spending. Ministries, non-profits, families, and communities change lives for the better - not the government.

ELIMINATING THE STATE INCOME TAX WILL TAKE TRUE CONSERVATIVE LEADERSHIP
As Governor, I will lead on eliminating the state income tax. If Tennessee, Florida, and Texas can eliminate the income tax, then so can Georgia. Eliminating the state income tax will drive our economy to create more jobs, attract more businesses, and leave more money in families’ pockets. Politicians in Georgia have been talking about doing this for 15 years! We will get it done.

WE CAN DOUBLE OUR INVESTMENT IN TRANSPORTATION, WITHOUT RAISING TAXES
We cannot expect to bring new business to our state with crumbling infrastructure. Whether it's trucks delivering goods to the port, or a bus taking children to school, it is essential we provide our citizens with safe roads on which to travel. I believe we can double our investment into transportation without raising taxes. This will provide us the opportunity to strengthen our infrastructure all across Georgia and attract new jobs.

NO SANCTUARY CITIES IN GEORGIA, PERIOD
First and foremost, my priority as your Governor is keeping Georgians safe from harm. I stand with President Trump. I am opposed to sanctuary cities that harbor illegal immigrants from being deported. We will hold those who break our laws accountable. As Governor, if a city in Georgia decides to harbor illegal immigrants, they won’t receive a nickel of state funding.

Caring for our Veterans ISN'T OPTIONAL
Making Georgia the best state in the country for veterans is one of my top priorities. Veterans can - and should - thrive in their personal and professional lives when they leave the military. I believe big government is failing our veterans, and I believe non-profits, ministries, and businesses can make all the difference in enabling these men and women to build on their past to create their best future. Veterans offer a unique set of skills, experiences and leadership abilities developed and honed during their years in the military. These veterans are an extraordinary asset to the communities in which they live. Veterans need care, transition, then opportunity. I will lead on ensuring that those opportunities are in place for all Georgia veterans.

EDUCATION: The Foundation for the Pursuit of Happiness
Every child in Georgia has a constitutionally protected right to the best education we can provide. We can do better. We need to empower our parents to have greater input and control in how their children are educated. We need to stop micromanaging our teachers and free them to do what they do best - instill a love for learning. The decisions about the education of our students should be in the hands of local educators and families, not politicians. I strongly oppose “Common Core” and other examples of bureaucratic overreach. No child should be trapped in a failing school that undermines their future. I have led and will continue to lead efforts to provide more choices and opportunities for students who need it most.

The Answer to Health Care IS FREE-MARKET PRINCIPLES
No legislation in recent memory defies the principles of a free market economy more than Obamacare. Not only does it violate our conservative principles, but it has wreaked havoc upon the American family and small businesses by driving premiums through the roof. The Members of Congress who supported the legislation did so in direct opposition to the 10th Amendment. The only way to make healthcare more affordable and deliver better results for patients is to infuse free-market principles into the process and to allow each state to craft its own plan.

AGRICuLTURE IS THE BACKBONE OF GEORGIA
Challenges facing 21st-century farmers are important to every citizen of Georgia. Agriculture is Georgia’s number one industry. We all have a stake in the future of Georgia’s farmers and their farms. But years of excessive regulations have hurt farmers, their families, and our state. I will fight against crippling regulations from the EPA and federal overreach and always side with the hard-working farmers of Georgia.

PROTECTING RELIGIOUS LIBERTY IS ESSENTIAL.
I have walked the streets of a country without religious freedom. If you ever do, I recommend you carry a weapon like I did. Nations that are unwilling to protect the religious liberties of their citizens will not protect the liberty of any form. Religious freedom is rightfully called our Nation's "First Freedom." The First Amendment of the U.S. Bill of Rights states the following: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." Sadly, overreaching judges have eroded this foundational principle. I believe we must protect the religious liberties and the beliefs of all Georgians. I have fought for these protections in the State Senate, and I will stand and deliver as your Governor.

Our First Responders Deserve Our Support
As a Police Mentor Team leader in Afghanistan, I have seen the negative effects of having an unprofessional police force. Many times, citizens take for granted how professional and important our police officers, firefighters, and EMT’s are in our communities. As Governor, I’ll make public safety a priority and be sure they have the training, equipment, and funding they need to do their job.
