Healthcare should be about market driven solutions, not government mandates.

Healthcare costs are rising due to Obamacare.

You just need the freedom to dream big and a whole lot of hard work.

In the U.S. Senate, in the short term we need to reduce the tax burden on hard working individuals, families, and small businesses.

As a soldier and combat veteran, I believe American military forces should only be used in the defense and furtherance of our nation's vital interests.

What's right for New York or California, is not necessarily right for Iowa.

I worked the morning biscuit line at Hardee's.

Let’s shut down the EPA. The state knows best how to protect resources.

We need to balance the budget and force Washington to stop spending more than it takes in.

I do have reason to believe there were weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.

You don't need to come from wealth or privilege to make a difference.

I grew up working for the minimum wage at Hardee's and knows first hand how important the minimum wage is. I support a state based minimum wage so every state can set their own minimum wage based on their cost of living.

Iowans are feeling the pinch of a big federal government, and elected officials like Bruce Braley keep championing the over reaching bureaucracy. Iowans know what is best for Iowa more than Washington politicians and bureaucrats do.

I grew up castrating hogs on an Iowa farm, so when I come to Washington, I'll know how to cut pork.

Here in Iowa, as a state senator, I have worked hard to find solutions that work for our state and as a result we've reduced taxes and lowered the unemployment rate. We have done that through hard work and sticking to our Iowa values. In the final months of this campaign I'll be asking voters to send me, and those Iowa values, to Washington, D.C.

As a veteran, I believe we have a responsibility to take care of all our men and women who have served - and I will fight to fix the crisis at the Veterans Administration caused by negligent leadership in Washington.

We need to repeal and replace Obamacare. It is the largest tax in U.S. history, has proven to be a job-killer, and has driven up the cost of healthcare.

It will take hard work, but doing nothing on Social Security, for example, simply makes sure the system will go broke. It's time to make some reforms.
