What is possible
American Dream
We care about lower taxes and reducing excessive regulations which stimulates economic growth and jobs for all Americans. Keeping money in the hands of consumers to spend as they see fit helps local communities instead of government bureaucracies.
We need to encourage individual initiative and restore the notion that the best government is the one that governs the least.
Strengthen our Educational system
Our schools have been failing our children for decades. The U.S. ranks 14th in education worldwide.
We embrace equal educational opportunities for all racial groups and reject race-based college admission which has hurt Asian American students. Join us to fight SCA5 which allows California universities to legally discriminate against Asian students on college admissions.
We need to allow families a choice between public, home-schooling or charter schools. Eliminate Common Core and set measurable goals for schools in order to receive federal funding.
Safety and Self Reliance
Our immigrant relatives came to this country, often with little money, but with the hope of better opportunities for their families. Through hard work, perseverance and education, we have made great strides however much remains to be done.
We support law and order to protect businesses and families from being targets of violent crime. We believe also that fair immigration policies are necessary to ensure the safety of all Americans. We reject any exclusions based on race or religious preferences.
