Top Issues

Criminal Justice / Public Safety Bob will block irresponsible legislation that protects criminals and puts your family at risk. Economy Bob is committed to regulatory reform. By removing bureaucratic barriers hindering job growth, worker options, and business creation, we pave the way for a future where workers, small businesses, and startups can thrive.

Taxes / Budget Reducing Housing Costs by Reducing Property Tax: Parents shouldn’t have to worry about putting a roof over their children’s heads and seniors should never fear being taxed out of their homes in retirement.

Economy Bob believes economic prosperity flourishes best in a free-market environment where individuals and businesses operate with minimal government interference.
