The Issues
-
All the issues are important and there are many other issues that I stand for,
as I am sure that most candidates are, here are a few:
-
Addressing the problems caused by
illegal immigration (this needs to be addressed).
I am not saying that SOMEBODY needs to do
something... I am saying that WE need
to do something. Law enforcement is mainly at
the local level.
-
Providing the best police and fire
protection (which is already top notch)
-
Maintaining or reducing our low
property tax rate (Lewisville is just below the
average for the area).
-
Neighborhood and retail
revitalization (keeping areas from becoming
dilapidated also)
-
Economic stability and growth
(capitalism works best on a fair playing field)
There are more issues, but of these listed,
I admit that the problems with illegal aliens has to be one
of the most important because it affects so many aspects of
our community: our hospitals, schools, neighborhoods,
businesses trying to compete honestly and fairly, employee
pay rates, identity theft, abuse of our welfare system, and
much more. This has to be addressed at the local, county and
state levels. The federal government is not feeling the
problem like our hospitals, schools, and the welfare office.
We are responsible for Lewisville which is our part of
America. The dedicated law enforcement for Lewisville
is at the local level. Please read more on this from
The Star Community Newspaper week 1 questions concerning
illegal immigration (link
here). Apparently the Star
Community Newspaper felt it was
important enough to be the first topic in the 8 week series.
