Where they stand
Affordability and Tax Relief
LiPetri supports building on the Trump tax cuts, including raising the SALT tax cap to protect New York families and eliminating taxes on tips, overtime, and Social Security. He also advocates for making it easier to buy a home and raise children without being crushed by taxes and red tape.
Blockchain and Crypto Innovation
LiPetri supports protecting blockchain innovation from bureaucratic overreach and calls for Congress to pass a unified crypto regulatory framework that defends freedom and ensures America leads in digital asset innovation.
Immigration Enforcement
LiPetri calls for deporting criminals who are in the country illegally and insists that all immigrants must enter legally and with pride. He criticizes past open-border policies as a slap in the face to those who came legally.
Their priorities
Issues Michael is raising that aren't a shared debate across the field.
Water Quality and Environment
LiPetri highlights his role as co-chair of a statewide Water Quality Taskforce focused on aging water infrastructure and cleaning up contaminants. He considers protecting local ecosystems, wildlife, and waterways a high priority.
Protect Women's Sports and Spaces
LiPetri states that biological men should never compete in female sports or use female locker rooms or bathrooms, calling it common sense to protect women and children.
Healthcare Reform
LiPetri advocates for restoring the patient-doctor relationship, reducing the role of insurance companies and bureaucrats. He supports personal, portable, and preventative care, price transparency, and allowing Americans to choose their own doctors and keep coverage across jobs or states.
