The Issues

Defending our Liberties
The U.S. Constitution is the greatest political document in human history. It is based on the idea that our rights do not come from government but from our Creator, and we chose to assign some of those rights to form a government that serves us. As predicted by the Founding Fathers, too many in Washington DC don’t see it that way. That is why we must elect people who not only represent what we need from government but also who will protect us from a government that takes too much from the people it is supposed to serve.

Military and Veterans Affairs
Carmen firmly believes in Ronald Reagan’s doctrine of ‘peace through strength.’ We must support a robust military and the brave men and women of our Armed Services to whom we owe our freedom. Our Veterans deserve not only our deepest gratitude but also the full benefits and support to which they are entitled. It is inexcusable for our Veterans to have to wait for urgent and routine medical care because of bureaucratic mismanagement. Carmen will be a strong advocate for reforming VA Hospitals in order to offer our Veterans the care that they deserve, and for offering private healthcare alternatives for our Veterans where the VA falls short.
