Issue Position: Creating Economic Opportunity

Issue Position

In the State House, Aric led the effort to strengthen our economy, raise incomes and encourage job creation. Working with his colleagues and Governor Snyder, they balanced budgets, lowered our state's debt by $20 billion, eliminated nearly 2,300 government rules and regulations, ended lifetime healthcare benefits for politicians, required able-bodied welfare recipients to work, and reduced the tax burden. The results were half a million more jobs, higher incomes, and additional opportunities for citizens to use their God-given talents and raise their family here in West Michigan.

Aric will work in the Senate on a pro-taxpayer agenda to balance budgets, pay down debt, reduce the tax burden, lower auto insurance rates, limit regulations, and promote our priorities, including defending law enforcement, rebuilding our roads, and improving education.
