Issues Facing District 5
Freedom of Religion
Our country was founded on religious freedom; most came from countries where state religion was practiced, and they sought out a place to express those freedoms. As of now, most of us are blocked from attending church services. These services are the lifeblood for a community like District 5. We depend on our churches for spiritual growth and community connection. As Congressman, I will ensure that our communities most significant institutions remain open and are never shuttered again!
Protecting the Unborn
Roger is a lifelong supporter in the fight against abortion. His stance in protecting the unborn earned him the endorsement of United Christians of Florida.
Right to Bear Arms
Other than our religious freedom, our access to the right to bear arms is our greatest guarantee of freedom. We are the only country in the world that grants such freedom, and that freedom allows for us to protect our most treasured family. You can rest assured that I will NEVER fail to protect your right to keep you, your family, and your property safe!
Freedom of Speech
As Americans, we have been given the ability to have our voices heard. We don’t have one single entity that ‘speaks for us’ or ‘tells us what to say.’ We must continue to have our voices heard and not have them shouted down by an unruly mob of protestors.
Law and Order
America is great because no person stands above the law. No group or groups are allowed to act out to prevent our access to our freedoms. We must place our country firmly back into the bounds of law and order. We must continue to fight against illegal immigration and the many other forces which are currently seeking to derail our freedoms. Our sacred America is too important. If we trade our freedoms for security, whether from a disease or for political expediency, we will end up without either freedom or security!
Education and Economic Development
We need to invest in a first rate education system that becomes an asset to help the district in economic development. Two key components to improving our education system are the addition of school choice and a robust vocational education program that will offer real world skills for high school graduates.
Veterans
Veteran health is extremely important to District 5, and Roger will work to ensure that veteran benefits & healthcare are delivered timely and efficiently.
