Strickland's campaign website listed the following issues:[10]

Spending and Debt: "I support a Constitutional Amendment to Balance the Budget. Washington has a spending problem. While I applaud Republicans in Congress for making some progress by reducing total spending two years in a row, the first time that has happened since the Korean War, there is so much more that can and should be done. There is still a lot of waste, duplication, fraud and abuse in the federal budget that we must address."

Taxes: "Raising taxes on hardworking Americans is the last thing we should be doing. Washington does not tax us too little…it taxes us far too much. The government already takes too much money from its citizens. At a time when many Americans are facing financial hardships, the last thing they can afford is higher taxes."

Job Creation: "Our current economic state is simply unacceptable. Over the past three and a half years, our government has failed in one of its core duties: promoting an economy where lasting, well-paying jobs can be created in America."

Obamacare: "Obamacare is a disaster. President Obama and Congressional Democrats spent billions of dollars on a website that doesn’t work, people’s personal information is vulnerable to identity theft and the number of people that have lost their health care because of the law still outweighs the new enrollees. It’s clear that Obamacare must be repealed, immediately."

National Security: "Keeping America safe at home is the most fundamental duty of our government. The enduring flame of liberty was lit on our shores in 1776, and has been transcendent for over two centuries because of the resolve of the American people and the hard work of our men and women in uniform."

Strickland's campaign website listed the following issues:[12]

Keeping Ventura County First

Excerpt: "Too many Ventura County families are struggling to make ends meet. Our local recovery and return to sound policies are necessary in order to get our neighbors working and our County thriving economically again. Creating new jobs and keeping jobs already in Ventura County, here, must be the focus of our government and our elected officials."

Creating American Jobs

Excerpt: "Ventura County needs independent leaders who will work to unite our community around economic policies that provide hope and prosperity for families struggling to make ends meet. Over the past three and a half years, our government has failed in its core duty: promoting an economy where lasting, well-paying jobs can be created in America."

Protecting Medicare and Social Security

Excerpt: "Social Security and Medicare are a sacred trust with our country’s seniors who have worked and paid into the system their entire lives. I will steadfastly oppose any effort to reduce Social Security or Medicare benefits for America’s retirees or those nearing retirement. I will also oppose any plan that changes the system in any way for those who count on Social Security or Medicare."

Making America Energy Independent

Excerpt: "Energy independence isn’t an option, it’s a necessity. America must lead the world in both energy production and renewable energy development. It’s time to transition our economy from traditional fossil fuels and into a renewable energy independent economy that will provide high paying jobs and improve our environment."

Keeping America Strong

Excerpt: "Keeping America safe at home is the most important duty for our leaders in government. The enduring flame of liberty was lit on our shores in 1776, and has been transcendent for over two centuries because of the resolve of the American people and the hard work of our men and women in uniform. The United States remains a leader in the world, and a strong national defense will allow America to remain a global force for good. "
