Campaign website

Yadeta’s campaign website stated the following:

Ensuring Our Religious Freedom

Everyone has the right to live according to their convictions. Those convictions are precious to the country and the individual and shouldn’t be trampled on by progressive liberals who want to destroy our way of life. More and more we see religious faith being attacked by the media and liberal elite.

That is why Michael Yadeta started a global organization that promotes and teaches religious freedom and has spent his life defending every person’s religious freedom and has seen how countries flourish when they make space for everyone’s religious and spiritual

Real Immigration Reform

Ethiopian-American, Michael Yadeta knows we need to reform our immigration system. We need a better, safer way to bring workers into the country legally. Michael Yadeta understands that businesses can’t function without a workforce. It’s time to stop the illegal hiring and exploitation of immigrants by creating better mechanisms for businesses to hire foreign workers. Until we fix this issue, we will never resolve illegal immigration. At the same time, Congress must take the border seriously and provide the necessary funding to secure it.

Reforming the System for Our Veterans

Our veterans deserve the promises made to them. But the current system is not doing this despite their honor, service, sacrifice, and ongoing suffering and loss. We must ensure that our Veterans have the access to care they need and deserve. And for Veterans who live in areas where they cannot access MD hospitals, we need to offer tele healthcare to consult with appropriate physicians and allow them to utilize non-MD hospitals and care.

Better Healthcare

Michael Yadeta understands that small businesses are the hardest hit during pandemic Covid 19 government interference in the health care system. Like Michael Yadeta, many people have been forced into the Obamacare market and have suffered under this failed system. Michael Yadeta wants to return healthcare choices to the individual. We need the government to protect certain aspects of care like preexisting conditions, but we do not need them to tell us what should be in our insurance plans or dictate costs.

Michael Yadeta also wants to expand the access to telemedicine and help decrease regulations that stifle growth and competition in the medical field so that doctors can deliver the personal care and attention they know their patients deserve.

Improving Education for Maryland

Being a Civil Engineer and community helper early on in his career was an extremely rewarding experience in Michael Yadeta’s life and is one of the reasons he started for profit that trains teachers around the world. Michael Yadeta knows that we need new education options that are not dictated to politicians by special interest unions who only look out for themselves. Opening up opportunities for children to learn trades and attend charter schools, more local control of education, and increasing school choice for parents and children who seek the growth and opportunities that their current public-school districts aren’t providing are some of the best ways to start reforming a broken system. Michael Yadeta also believes that families who choose to home school should have their expenses covered from the taxes they are paying into the educational system. By increasing opportunities for our children, we can better prepare them for the workforce to reduce the burden of expensive college degrees.

Creating Jobs and Opportunity for Maryland

As the founder and CEO of a Civil Engineering organization, Michael Yadeta understands the challenges of running a family and a business at the same time. Michael Yadeta knows what it takes to start and scale a business, sign the front and back of a paycheck, hire employees, and meet financial deadlines. Running a business in this over-regulated climate is hard enough without government bureaucrats piling on more unnecessary red tape. That is why Michael Yadeta strongly supports President Trump’s efforts to roll back burdensome regulations that have hindered economic growth and innovation. The government should be working to help small business owners innovate and create jobs, not discouraging people with excessive regulation and taxation. Michael Yadeta is the sole provider of his family and he understands first hand that limited government, decreasing regulations, and job growth policies, leads to more money in his pocket. In Congress, He will fight for limited government and free market principles to return wasted resources back to the families earning them.[2]
