Campaign websiteNoack's campaign website stated the following:Your Healthcare Costs Are Out of ControlYou shouldn’t have to choose between filling a prescription and filling your gas tank. But that’s the reality for too many families in the 2nd District. Premiums keep climbing. Deductibles keep growing. And every year, insurance companies post record profits while you get less coverage for more money.The problem isn’t doctors. It isn’t nurses. It’s a system that lets insurance corporations rake in billions while you ration your own care. Mike doesn’t want government-run healthcare — he wants to take the greed out of the equation by converting health insurance companies to nonprofit organizations. Same doctors. Same hospitals. Just no Wall Street middlemen inflating your bills.Convert health insurance companies to nonprofit organizations — eliminate the profit motive that drives up your premiums year after yearCut your out-of-pocket costs by removing corporate shareholders from the healthcare equationKeep healthcare in your hands, not the government’s — no socialized medicine, no bureaucratic takeoverAttack the root cause of rising costs instead of slapping band-aids on a broken systemProtect you from surprise billing and predatory pricing that can bankrupt a family overnightWhat Mike Will Fight ForA nonprofit insurance model that puts patients over profits. You keep your doctor, your hospital, your choices — just without corporate greed doubling your bills.You Deserve Energy That Actually WorksYour electric bill keeps going up while politicians chase energy fads that sound good in press releases but fall apart in the real world. You’re paying the price for policies built on slogans instead of science.Here’s what they won’t tell you: wind turbines carry an enormous carbon footprint to manufacture and can’t be recycled at end of life. They pile up in landfills. That’s not green — that’s greenwashing. Mike supports clean energy that’s proven, reliable, and genuinely clean. Hydroelectric power has been generating cheap, renewable electricity for over a century. It works around the clock. It doesn’t fill landfills. And it keeps your energy costs down while delivering real energy independence — which is a matter of national security, not just your utility bill.Invest in hydroelectric power — proven, reliable, and genuinely renewable energy that works 24/7Demand honesty about the full environmental footprint of wind and solar, including manufacturing waste and non-recyclable turbine bladesProtect your wallet from energy policies built on political trends instead of resultsStrengthen America’s energy independence so we never depend on hostile nations to keep your lights onBack next-generation clean energy research that delivers real results, not just good headlinesWhat Mike Will Fight ForEnergy policies based on science and results, not slogans. Pro-hydroelectric, pro-innovation, and pro-keeping your energy affordable and American-made.Immigration That’s Fair, Firm, and Makes SenseThis issue is personal for Mike. His wife is from Japan. He’s navigated the legal immigration system firsthand and knows exactly how broken, slow, and frustrating it is for people trying to do things the right way. That’s not a talking point — that’s his life.The system is broken. Everyone knows it. Violent criminals slip through the cracks while ICE wastes resources going after people who aren’t a threat to anyone. That’s backwards. Mike believes we need to get serious about enforcement — and that means focusing on the people who actually endanger your community.At the same time, the legal immigration process is a disaster. Mike and his wife have dealt with it firsthand. People who want to come here the right way face a system that’s slow, confusing, and stacked against them. We need to fix that — make legal immigration work so people have a real path to do things by the book.Refocus ICE enforcement on violent criminals who pose actual dangers to your communityStop wasting resources targeting people who aren’t a threatFix the legal immigration process so it’s clear, fair, and actually works — Mike knows from personal experience how broken it isSecure the border and enforce the laws we already haveSupport legal immigration — America is stronger when people come here the right wayWhat Mike Will Fight ForA common-sense immigration system: secure the border, focus ICE on violent criminals, and fix the broken legal process so people who want to come here the right way actually can. Mike knows firsthand how broken it is — this isn’t politics for him, it’s family.You’re Taxed to the Breaking PointIllinois has the highest property taxes in the nation. Let that sink in. Not second highest. Not top five. The highest. Your home — the biggest investment most families ever make — gets taxed more aggressively here than anywhere else in America.And it doesn’t stop there. Since 2019, the state gas tax has jumped 52 cents. Mike drives a truck for a living — he feels that hike every single day, on every mile. And so do you, every time you fill up to get to work, drop your kids at school, or drive to the grocery store. Springfield takes a bigger cut while your family’s budget gets squeezed from every direction.Mike says enough. Every dollar taken in taxes is a dollar your family can’t spend on groceries, rent, or your kids’ future. Government should live within its means — the same way you have to.Fight to roll back Illinois’ highest-in-the-nation property taxes so your home doesn’t become a financial burdenPush to reverse the 52-cent gas tax hike that’s been draining your wallet since 2019Cut wasteful federal spending and demand accountability for every taxpayer dollarStop politicians from treating your paycheck like their personal slush fundHold government to the same standard your family lives by: don’t spend more than you earnWhat Mike Will Fight ForReal tax relief for working families. Roll back the property tax burden. Reverse the gas tax hike. Cut the spending. Your money belongs in your pocket, not Washington’s.Our Veterans Deserve More Than a Thank YouYou know someone who served. A neighbor. A family member. A friend. They put their lives on the line for this country. And when they came home, too many of them got a handshake and a pile of paperwork instead of a real path forward.Mike has a bold plan: put veterans’ skills to work where they’re needed most. Military veterans bring discipline, training, and leadership that our communities desperately need. Instead of letting that talent go to waste, let’s match it to the jobs where it matters.Hire military veterans for police forces — their training and discipline make them natural fits to protect your communityPlace Air Force veterans in airport security roles where their expertise keeps your family safe when you travelEmploy Navy and Marines veterans in shipyard and Coast Guard positions that use the skills they already haveGuarantee veterans access to quality healthcare and mental health services — no waitlists, no runaroundBuild a seamless transition from military service to a meaningful career, not a dead endWhat Mike Will Fight ForA real jobs pipeline for veterans: military to police, Air Force to airports, Navy and Marines to shipyards and Coast Guard. Meaningful careers that honor their service and strengthen your community.— Mike Noack's campaign website (February 20, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
