The Issues by William Coit
Monday, November 26, 2001School Prayer
I support H.J. RES.52 Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States relating to school prayer.Abortion
As a candidate who respects the sanctity and dignity of life, I support legislation that:
- That prevents federal taxpayer funds from being used to carry out abortion.
- Expands tax credits and other support for adoption.
- Supports a full ban on human cloning.
- Supports a ban on partial birth abortion.
- Supports parental notification.
Affirmative Action
I support the concept of affirmative action to remove the last vestiges of institutional racism. I believe in equal opportunity not quotas.
Child Support
I support the Child Support Distribution Act of 2001 (H.R.1471) that would have allowed families leaving welfare to keep a larger share of past-due child support payments collected by state agencies on their behalf. The bill would have transferred as much as $3.5 billion to such families over five years. It also included the "Fathers Count" provisions targeting job training and placement assistance to low-income fathers.
Paid Maternity Leave
I support the Federal Family Leave Act that gives mothers and fathers time off to care for a new born baby.
Child Care Tax Breaks
I support (H.R.253) Tax Relief For Families With Children Act - Amends the Internal Revenue Code with respect to the dependent care tax credit to: (1) increase the dollar limit on creditable employment-related expenses; (2) increase the percentage of employment-related expenses; and (3) include transportation costs and costs of educational programs. Increases the child care credit to $900.
Drunk Driving
I support legislation to strengthen the penalties for individuals that drive under the influence of alcohol.
Racial Profiling
I support (H.R.2074) End Racial Profiling Act of 2001 - Prohibits any law enforcement agency or agent from engaging in racial profiling. Authorizes the United States, or an individual injured by racial profiling, to bring a civil action for declaratory or injunctive relief to enforce this prohibition.
Welfare Reform
I support legislation to force Americans from a system of dependency to one where self-reliance is the goal. Additional reform should mandate recipients enroll in technical, college, or job-training to continue receiving benefits.
