August's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[12]
Taxes
Excerpt: "As a lifelong resident of Wisconsin, I know we are taxed too much. It is a goal of mine to reduce the tax burden on our families and businesses in an effort to remove Wisconsin from the list of top ten highest-taxed states. I have authored legislation to make it harder for the Legislature to raise taxes, and support efforts to freeze property taxes."
Role of Government
Excerpt: "At the core of my beliefs is the idea of small, limited government. I have concerns with the recent growth we've seen in government and will continue to support actions to limit its size and scope."
Human Life
Excerpt: "Nothing is more valuable than a human life. As a pro-life candidate, I do not support abortion and will work to promote traditional family values."
Spending
Excerpt: "Our state and federal governments spend too much. I believe government must learn to budget like any family or small business would have to. I have supported multiple measures to reduce government spending and balance our budget."
2nd Amendment
Excerpt: "As a proud member of the NRA, I support measures to protect our 2nd Amendment rights. I support the concept of concealed carry and did vote in favor of the bill during my first term."
