Trade - Ohio's jobs are going south. Its time to stop rewarding the exodus.Social Security - Our retirement is in trouble. For too long politicians have borrowed against the future. Now its time for pay back.

Campaign Finance Reform - Even now the two major parties are spend more time collecting money than addressing issues for the voters.

Background …

In 1992, Ross Perot electrified America by bringing a vision of high ethics and traditional American values to the political scene. The Reform Party is an outgrowth of that original movement which started with United We Stand America. Now a viable 3rd Party choice for voters, the Reform Party continues to grow and promote the power of votes over money.
