Most Americans agree that there needs to be enough regulation to keep the playing field level and the economy moving with open and fair competition for all.

improve public education

In particular, we need to:
Reform the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to make it easier for businesses to work with OSHA to improve the health and safety of workers in the most partical and cost-effective ways possible
Enact a federal “paycheck protection” rule to give union workers the choice whether their union dues should be used for political purposes
Reform labor laws to provide employers and employees more flexibility in scheduling, compensation and overtime
Increase competition for federally funded construction projects to reduce costs for taxpayers and open the bidding process to both union and non-union businesses
Remove state-based barriers so that small businesses can band together to purchase more affordable health insurance for their employees
Provide a twenty percent ta deduction for small business income, giving small businesses the ability to grow and create jobs
Expand all forms of domestic energy production to allow more oil and gas exploration, as well as increased use of nuclear energy and renewable sources
Give non-union workers the same fair access to federally funded job training programs that union workers currently have
