Campaign website

Royse’s campaign website stated the following:

American's are in trouble! It's Time For A Change!

Kevin Hern plans to go against Trump and make drastic cuts to Social Security and Medicare. Kevin says America is 'broke' but Kevin finds billions for countries all around the world every year. Can you imagine working until you are almost 70? How can Kevin cut benefits for Americans while giving billions overseas? We must protect Social Security and Medicare. This is the main reason I am running for office. (Note: Both Kevin and Mullins received over a million dollars in PPP money from 'broke' America.)

A few other reasons to Vote for Royse

1. The American border is in crisis. A lot of talk but no action. I will not approve any spending bill unless it has money for a border wall even if the government shuts down. If you dont have a border, you dont have a country!

2. The national debt went up more in Kevin's term than in the history of America. Now with interest rates raising we have to pay more interest on the enormousness national debt.

3. Pastors have been arrested in America for having church while the shopping malls stayed open. America is not North Korea or China. I would have defended the pastor and the constitution had i been a congressman.

4. Kevin pledged he would fight for a 3 term limit in the House. Great! but Kevin is now running for a 4th term.

5. Kevin voted "NO" on a bill to help veterans exposed to burn pits and voted "YES" on FISA, a spy on American's bill, My dad was a veteran and i lived on a military base at times when i was a kid. If elected, I will always have our veterans back.

Vote for Paul Royse for Congress in District 1 on June 18th, I'm pro border wall, fix the national debt, pro freedom, a Veteran and Pastor's son, a Christian Conservative and MAGA Supporter! I will stand for are rights and will never back down or cave to the left!

Paul Royse is unequivocally unapologetically Pro-life. I will do everything i can to help the Pro-life movement and encourage President Trump to do the same.

UPDATE: Hern just voted "YES" on April 20th to send billions and billions of aid again! This time to Gaza and other places from 'broke' America.

I've lived in Tulsa most of my life, I know voters will always vote for the same career politicians but your vote wont hurt just Oklahoman's but all Americans. Hern is leading the charge and is chairman of the committee that wants to cut Social Security and Medicare.
