Campaign website
Pan’s campaign website stated the following:
ENSURING PUBLIC SAFETY
Rising crime is endangering our families and neighborhoods. To make our streets safe again, we need to recruit more police and enforce our laws.
SCHOOL CHOICE FOR PARENTS
Our schools are not always preparing our children to really advance in life. Parents should have the information they need to make decisions about their children’s education, and they should have access to all the educational options in their community.
REDUCING INFLATION
Rising prices for housing, food, and gas are making life difficult for working families. Reducing the size and reach of government will put money back in the hands of families and create jobs.
SECURING OUR BORDERS
Illegal migrants and drugs are flowing unhindered into our country. To regain control over our future, we need to secure our border and develop a consistent immigration policy.
SUPPORTING SMALL BUSINESSES
Small businesses struggle with high costs. Reducing taxes and regulations on small businesses will create jobs and renew our communities.
CONFRONTING OUR NATIONAL DEBT
The United States has a debt problem. In 2000, our national debt was 54% of our GDP. Today it is over 120% and rising. It is time for serious solutions that will lead to long-term financial stability.[2]
