What animates me in politics are the economic issues of opportunity.

I oppose amnesty, I oppose citizenship, I oppose legalization for illegal aliens. I always have and I always will.

I do think if we take the power out of Washington and bring it back to the people, if we defend the Bill of Rights, free speech, religious liberty, the Second Amendment, privacy, if we repeal Obamacare, abolish the IRS, if we get Washington out of the way of job creators, I think we can transform this country.

The USA FREEDOM Act ends the NSA's unfettered data collection program once and for all, while at the same time preserving the government's ability to obtain information to track down terrorists when it has sufficient justification and support for doing so.

President Reagan stood for conservative principles in a way that brought people together.

In fact, I think we're less safe. We get so distracted by all of the information, we're not spending enough time getting specific immigration - specific information on terrorists.

Liberty is never safer than when politicans are terrified.
