Government Spending and Fiscal Policy
The COVID-19 economic collapse has led to large budget shortfalls, including at the state level. I oppose raising taxes to close the budget shortfall. During economic downturns, the people have no choice but to tighten their belts and learn to live on a leaner budget. Government should do the same. By trimming government waste and letting the economy get back to work, we can grow the economy and restore government revenues without raising taxes.
