Dudrich Challenges Staback for 115th

First of all I am in favor of a constitutional convention to address several issues. There is legislation right now that I am in favor of that will address the spending costs of legislators. Last year state legislators spent over $333 million dollars ON THEMSELVES! I am in favor of stopping taxpayer subsidized newsletters and public service announcements, which are only tools for reelection. I support enacting term limits on state legislators and senators. I am also in favor of limiting the ability of politicians to distribute and accept tax dollars in dealing with special interest groups. I will try to restore and favor the concept of a citizen legislature by empowering our our citizens with the right to vote on tax increases and government spending. When the public has the genuine power to vote on tax issues, as they do in other states, it is then and only then that costs will be controlled. Finally, I am in favor of having the creation of a nonpartisan state wide Independent Redistricting Commission to make votes truly count in legislative and congressional elections. This would also create more accountability among elected officials and to put citizens, not elected officials, in charge of elections.
