Campaign website
Anderson’s campaign website stated the following:

Energy This multifaceted energy strategy is vital for America's future, balancing immediate energy needs with long-term sustainability and economic growth. Military Support and National Defense This commitment extends beyond equipping our forces with cutting-edge technology and resources; it also encompasses providing support for our troops, both during their service and after - including a desire to invest in mental health services, improve veterans' healthcare, and ensure smooth transitions to civilian life - this could include a push for a buy out, with interest, option for military members to give them an honorable early exit from service if desired. Our veterans have dedicated their lives to our country's safety and deserve nothing less than our full support in return. Censorship U.S.-China Relations Gun Rights Immigration Simultaneously, maintaining secure national borders is crucial for various reasons, including national security, the safety of immigrants, and the protection of U.S. law enforcement personnel. A secure border is not just about enforcing immigration laws; it's also about humanitarian concerns, preventing the exploitation of vulnerable populations, and ensuring that those seeking a new life in the U.S. can do so through safe and legal channels. My stance on immigration is about balance: rigorously upholding our laws while remaining open and welcoming to those who seek to join our nation legally and contribute to our collective prosperity. The "From Birth Account": A forward-looking policy concept to reduce costs and transition away from legacy social programs An aspect of this policy idea is its partial funding mechanism, wherein affluent citizens could opt to redirect their entitlements from traditional social programs like Social Security to support the "From Birth Account." This voluntary – and likely incentivized - contribution from higher net worth individuals could possibly provide a partial financial basis for the program. The incentive could possibly be a guarantee to not raise taxes on these individuals above a certain percentage for a defined number of years. The "From Birth Account" is not just a financial tool; it's a strategic move to anticipate and address the future demands for UBI, positioning the nation to proactively tackle emerging economic challenges and ensure a stable, prosperous future for Americans in an AI world.[2] |
