Make Nevada a Business and Family Friendly State Again
Provide Economic Prosperity and Jobs
Through Fundamental Reform
Because historically Nevada has been a low tax state, we have attracted businesses, which create jobs to support families. We must regain our low tax state status and oppose future business killing taxes which harm families. If you build a business friendly state...they will come.
- Repeal the Commerce Tax: In 2015 the Republicans passed the Largest Tax increase in Nevada history harming businesses and families.
- Oppose the proposed Constitutional Amendment to raise property taxes. SJR14 which passed the Legislature in 2017 will be voted on again at the 2019 Legislature. If it passes it will be on the ballot in 2020.
"A 3,900 square foot home built in 1991 in Juniper Trails with a current tax bill of $8,344 per year would increase to $13,699 resulting in a $446 increases to the buyer's monthly payments."
The increases for business property would be similar. This devastating property tax proposal will kill business and leave families unable to afford homes. It must be defeated.
- It is critical that we achieve excellence in education in order for businesses and families to thrive. We must repeal Common Core and implement quality education with world class standards for academic success. Nevada ranks 49th among the states in education. Nevada needs a well educated workforce in order to attract businesses with higher paying jobs.
- Protect Nevada Taxpayers, businesses and families, from the tax-burden of illegal immigration. According to the Center for Immigration Studies 62% of households headed by illegal immigrants used one or more welfare programs. The Federation for Immigration Reform estimates that the annual fiscal burden on Nevada taxpayers associated with illegal immigration to be about $630 million equating to an average annual cost of about $763 per native-born headed household in the State.
- Restore the Constitutional Right to Trial by Jury and the right of Due-Process to business owners who find themselves in bureaucratic administrative kangaroo courts. Protect business owners by requiring that the discovery rules of the Nevada Rules of Civil Procedure apply, including depositions in administrative proceedings, which would give business owners a greater ability to defend themselves from bureaucratic abuses. Provide for jury trials in any appeal to the District Court from an administrative agency. This will help stop bureaucratic abuses and restore Constitutional due process to business owners.
- Oppose the proposed Constitutional Amendment which would create a Constitutional Right to Emergency Medical Care and which would Impose Price Controls on medical care and hospitals. AJR14 passed the Legislature in 2017 and will be voted on again at the 2019 Legislature. If it passes it will be on the ballot in 2020.
I support the individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms which is under attack. When we have more law abiding citizens with guns we have less crime. Our freedoms of religion and speech are under assault by those who embrace 'political correctness'. I support the right to be born, traditional marriage, choice in education, and freedom of choice in health care. I support the platform of the Independent American Party. www.iapn.org
