Reduce the size of the federal government to it's proper role under the Constitution, thereby eliminating the need for the income tax.
1. Reduce the size of the federal government to it's proper role under the Constitution, thereby eliminating the need for the income tax. To that end as Ohio's U.S. Senator I would: encourage constitutional debate in the nation by engaging in constitutional debate in Congress, as urged by the House Constitutional Caucus during the 104th Congress; insist that the Senate enact nothing without first consulting the Constitution for proper authority and then debating that on the floor of the Senate; move toward restoring constitutional government by carefully returning power wrongly taken over the years from the states and the people; reject the nomination of judicial candidates who do not appreciate that the Constitution is a document of delegated, enumerated, and thus limited powers.
