Campaign websiteStewart's campaign website stated the following:Restore Independent JuriesLiberty collapses when government becomes judge, jury, and executioner.Independent juries are the last peaceful barrier against concentrated power. They protect life, liberty, property, and the living meaning of constitutional limits.End Inflation TheftA shrinking dollar is a hidden tax on every paycheck, savings account, and inheritance.Inflation quietly strips wages, savings, and future inheritance. It is one of the largest unseen lifetime losses ordinary people suffer.Open Utah's LandsHousing gets cheaper when families can actually live on the land around them.Artificial land scarcity inflates housing, rent, inheritance barriers, and family formation costs. Reopening land access could transform lifetime affordability.Cut Health-Care MandatesHealth care gets less affordable when government multiplies mandates and middlemen.Mandates, insurance distortion, and compliance overhead raise lifetime medical costs and premiums for ordinary families.Parents Over BureaucratsChildren belong to families, not funding formulas.Bureaucratic schooling costs families through taxes, compliance, lost flexibility, and reduced educational fit.Unrig ElectionsRepresentation is broken when money and party machinery can overrule voters who show up.When elections reward money over acquaintance, taxpayers bear the cost through worse policy, weaker representation, and entrenched machine behavior.Protect Due ProcessLiberty depends on real process, not administrative shortcuts.Government should not seize, punish, blacklist, or regulate people by mere presumption.Shrink the Administrative StateUnelected rulemakers should not govern the people.Lawmaking belongs in constitutionally accountable hands, not in sprawling agencies.Defend Honest ElectionsVoters should know who is on the ballot and why.Election administration should be transparent, simple, and resistant to insider manipulation.Stop Federal Overreach in EducationWashington should not micromanage the classroom.Education works best when parents, teachers, and communities have room to act.Protect Local Self-GovernmentPeople should be able to see and challenge power close to home.Cities should publish and honor their actual charters and legal limits.Make Housing Buildable AgainYoung families need room to form, build, and stay.Policy should stop artificially choking land access and affordability.Stop Immunity CreepOfficials should not be insulated from accountability when rights are violated.Immunity doctrines should not swallow the very rights constitutions were written to secure.Restore Separation of PowersNo branch should quietly absorb the powers of the others.The Constitution works only when legislative, executive, and judicial power stay divided.— Seth Stewart's campaign website (April 10, 2026)Note: This text is quoted verbatim from the original source.
