Kari Lake on Budget & Economy

	Kari Lake on Budget & Economy

Cut spending, reduce bureaucracy, and free American workers

Kari Lake will cut spending, reduce bureaucracy, and free American workers to grow our economy: because increasing our total economic output is the surest way to tame inflation now, and in the future. Kari will work to limit the growth of the federal budget until we return to the point where annual tax revenues are higher than what we're spending. Once we do that, we can slowly pay off our debt and, over time, free more revenue to directly benefit American citizens. Source: 2024 Arizona Senate campaign website KariLake.com , Oct 11, 2023

In a public health crisis let citizens decide for themselves

When the pandemic hit, states across the country put the hammer down on small businesses; forcing their closure, limiting their occupancy, and requiring costly modifications to their operations. I will never allow our state to do anything like this, ever again. In a public health crisis, or any crisis, it is the responsibility of the government to give our citizens the very best, most accurate information possible, and allow them to make their own informed decisions.
