Issue Position

I believe a job brings more to an individual, to a family, and to a community than any check could ever deliver. Many in our communities are still struggling. That's why investments in infrastructure and the jobs of tomorrow, and support for small businesses and working families are essential to ensure every person who can work has the opportunity to do so.

Increase federal investments in infrastructure to make sure that our communities are prosperous and competitive in the 21st Century economy.
Expand the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) to make sure that our families are bringing home more of their paychecks to invest in themselves and their local businesses.
Invest in rural broadband to connect our communities with opportunities in national markets right here at home.
Lower taxes for our working families, while promoting policies that create a responsible and forward-looking federal budget.
