Where they stand
Immigration and Border Policy
Supports abolishing Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ending checkpoints and detention facilities, and allowing entry after criminal-record and disease checks with work authorization from day one. He would limit Customs and Border Protection to the border and other points of entry, not inland operations.
Taxes, Costs, and Economic Opportunity
Supports repealing the federal income tax and abolishing the IRS, combining that change with major spending cuts; he also opposes tariffs as consumer taxes and supports restoring congressional control over trade.
Health Care Access and Costs
Supports free-market health care through medical savings accounts, tax deductions for health expenses, interstate insurance sales, limited catastrophic policies, private-sector drug certification in place of the FDA, and drug purchases from other countries.
