Campaign websiteBuck's campaign website stated the following:Common Sense is the KeyWith a Congressional District that covers 23 counties, you can imagine the diversity of people and industry you will find. Fishermen to farmers; industrial manufacturing to small businesses. And of course, our fine military bases that are such a vital part of our national security and our economy. As Asa travels the District he is listening to citizens from all of these industries, plus a lot of retired folks that used to work in many of these fields. Asa has found that his litmus test of Conservatism works well in almost every question of what the Federal Government should do, or NOT do, for the people. Here are Asa's "Three Pillars of Conservatism" that he will use to decide his stance on the issues.Lower TaxesCongress must do more to lower the financial burden taxes put on everyday Americans. There's too much money going overseas and too much money being wasted here at home and we need to cut wasteful spending and let citizens keep more of their hard-earned money. Asa promises that whenever he looks at any bill, including the budget, he will never forget that the Federal Budget comes out of your pocket and work diligently to make sure more of that money remains in your control.Less GovernmentThe Founding Fathers weren't as fearful of an invading army or an uprising of the people as they were the very government they were creating. That's why they placed the power in the hands of "We the People". Asa believes the answers to the vast majority of America's problems lie not in the creation of more government programs, but in the common sense and determination of the American people. Asa will strive to LIMIT government, not EXPAND government. More FreedomFreedom is the reason this great Constitutional Republic was established and the reason so many from around the world look to America as the symbol of Freedom. We cannot let the freedoms so many of served, fought & died for, be cast aside to be replaced by restrictions designed to empower government and promote radical agendas. Asa will always view proposed legislation through the lens of FREEDOM and will not support efforts to limit the Constitutional rights of Americans.— Asa Buck's campaign website (February 11, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
