NATIONAL SECURITY

Pat believes that our country must have the strongest defensive capabilities in the world. We should not hesitate to take action in defense of our freedom and our American way of life. But we must also make sure that American military action is guided first and foremost by the country’s national interest.
IMMIGRATION

Immigration has been a very contentious issue in this country, but it doesn’t have to be.

Pat believes there are a couple of key principles that should guide our country’s immigration policy. The first is the importance of the rule of law. America is a country built on a common respect for the rule of law, and we must make sure we do not allow politicians in Washington to undermine this fundamental value. For this reason, Pat opposes amnesty.

While he believes legal immigrants should be given a chance to live the American dream, he does not believe people who break the law should be rewarded. Such a policy is unfair to those who come to this country legally and is harmful to the country’s national security.

ENERGY/RESOURCES

We are blessed to live in a nation bursting with natural energy resources. Unfortunately, our politicians in Washington lack the desire and the political will to institute a forward-thinking energy policy that will lower the costs and make America energy independent.

Pat believes that protecting our environment is critically important. But he also knows it is possible to harness America’s natural resources without doing harm to it. For example, Pat voted in the House of Representatives to allow drilling in a small part of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska.
