OPEN GOVERNMENT

By Thomas G. Deitman

Candidate for State Representative; District 159

This information is provided by the candidate
Government for The People
The people's faith in their government is at the lowest point it have been in many years. It is easy to understand just why. People feel out of touch with government and their elected officials. The connection has been lost!

As a State Legislature, I will support and actively fight for the following:

  • Ending the pratice of allowing lobbys and special interest groups to provide legislaturs with gifts as a way to influence voting

  • Ending the practice of paying bonuses to government and political employees.

  • Ending the practice of allowing elected official to use camapign funds for legal defense.

  • Require all government employees' saleries to be published.

  • Term limits for State Representatives and Senators
