Issue Positions

For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2022.

  • "I support commonsense, conservative reforms that will drive costs down, increase options and access, and align with a free market-based approach. I will work to lower prescription drug costs, foster competition among providers and ultimately expand affordable health care access for all Alabamians." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I will work tirelessly to uphold election integrity and fight voter fraud. Alabama’s secure, free and fair elections should be a model for the country, and I intend to teach Washington a thing or two when elected. This means defeating the disastrous HR 1, which would federalize elections, ban photo voter ID across the nation and mandate taxpayer money funding political campaigns against Alabamians' will." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I believe in ensuring our law enforcement officers are the best trained and best equipped in the world; we must also recruit and retain the best people to protect and serve, which means ensuring these heroic individuals are paid and treated like the professionals that they are." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I will lead the charge to defend, grow and protect our existing military and defense sector footprints in Alabama, including through any future Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) rounds." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "Yellowhammer News: "I firmly believe in the principle of peace through strength. We can only keep our nation and allies safe if our military remains the strongest and most technologically superior fighting force ever known." (yellowhammernews.com)
  • "From education, job and skills training, infrastructure (including broadband), and innovation, I support a pro-growth free market approach to the things that matter most for each and every Alabamians’ economic opportunity. Ultimately, this is at the heart of my Alabama First beliefs." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I will work tirelessly to create an environment in which job creators can do what they do best. That means getting government out of the way of progress by slashing burdensome regulations and supporting lower taxes that enhance America’s economic competitiveness." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "The federal government’s spending is beyond out-of-control and will only worsen our growing inflation problem. It’s time for the next generation to stand up and fight Washington’s efforts to burden our children and our children’s children with an untenable amount of debt." (twitter.com)
  • "There are three primary roadblocks dragging down our economy right now: out of control spending (including paying people to stay out of the labor force), burdensome governmental regulations and red tape, and an overcomplicated tax code that’s 10x longer than the Bible. I will be a leading voice for economic policies and regulatory reforms that foster job growth." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)

  • "A 40-year high in inflation is a crushing hidden tax on the Alabamians who can least afford it. This comes on the heels of our national debt surpassing $30 trillion. Pattern is clear: it’s time to end the reckless spending in Washington. #alsen #alpolitics" (twitter.com)
  • "Inflation is a hidden tax that hits hardworking Americans the most, and we’re facing the brunt of it this Thanksgiving. The Biden Administration needs to stop its reckless overspending, which makes the money in your family’s pockets worth less. #alpolitics #alsen" (twitter.com)
  • "President Biden promised no new taxes on the middle class, but his new inflation bill would increase taxes for everyone earning more than $30k. This is another broken promise that’d hurt hardworking families the most. #alsen" (twitter.com)

(www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I am proud of Alabama’s and America’s energy producers. In our state alone, which is one of the nation’s top electricity producers, the energy industry has been estimated to generate 124,000 jobs, producing an economic impact of over $8 billion. We must restart construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline and allow responsible offshore drilling in the Gulf of Mexico – which directly benefits our state." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I am ready to lead the fight against the so-called Green New Deal, which would cripple the American economy, destroy Alabama jobs, and cost the typical hardworking family $70,000 annually. I believe the Green New Deal is one of the most dangerous proposals in modern American history, and it must be defeated in the halls of Congress and at the ballot box. I will be the hands and feet of the silent majority, who believe in a commonsense approach to energy production and regulation." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I support an all-of-the-above energy approach that prioritizes affordability, reliability and security. This means fully utilizing low-cost, American-made (and Alabama-made) generation such as coal, natural gas, nuclear, hydropower and biomass." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)

  • "As a constitutional conservative, I have always unapologetically supported the Second Amendment, which our Founders wisely knew would stand as a check against the timeless tyranny of government. I believe Alabamians have a God-given right to bear arms, and I will actively fight for that right at every opportunity. I support policies that best allow Alabamians to defend themselves, their loved ones, their property and their communities." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "First, we must repeal and replace Obamacare with a plan that protects preexisting conditions and patient rights. More than a decade after the passage of Obamacare and now essentially in a third Obama term, health insurance continues to get less affordable by the day while health care costs continue to rise. I support commonsense, conservative reforms that will drive costs down, increase options and access, and align with a free market-based approach." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)

  • "I am horrified and disgusted by what’s happening right now at our Southern border. A nation without borders is not a nation. The Biden Administration and congressional Democrats have abandoned the primary responsibility of government: to defend our nation from foreign threats." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "I resolutely believe we must put a stop to this siege and build the wall." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "Securing the border of the United States will take a combination of physical infrastructure, technology, personnel, resources, and closing legal loopholes that are routinely exploited. We must empower the Department of Homeland Security to comprehensively fix the problem." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "Not only is the Biden Administration ignoring our immigration laws, they’re also disregarding the law of nature. We lock our doors and our cars; people build fences around their houses and neighborhoods. So why shouldn’t Americans be entitled to a secure border that upholds safety and controls who is coming in? Securing the border of the United States will take a combination of physical infrastructure, technology, personnel, resources, and closing legal loopholes that are routinely exploited. We must empower the Department of Homeland Security to comprehensively fix the problem." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
  • "Yellowhammer News: "Securing the border will take a combination of physical infrastructure, technology, personnel, resources, and closing legal loopholes that are routinely exploited. We must empower the Department of Homeland Security to comprehensively fix the problem. And we must clearly and loudly dissuade illegal immigration. This means being clear about upholding the rule of law, including these three unequivocal words: no amnesty, ever." (yellowhammernews.com)
  • "Again — the last thing the Biden Admin should be doing regarding Iran is lifting sanctions and giving them billions. The discussed “deal” with this terrorist regime is a mistake with grave national security consequences. #alsen" (twitter.com)
  • "Iran's missile attack on Erbil reaffirms that the last thing we need is a new deal that gives sanctions relief to these terrorists. #alsen" (twitter.com)
  • "Wesley and I are praying for the people of Ukraine. President Biden needs to immediately implement the full range of bone-crushing sanctions against Putin's aggression. This includes barring Russia from SWIFT. #alsen" (twitter.com)

  • "American manufacturers are already suffering from inflation and the supply chain crisis. The Schumer/Manchin tax hike will only make things worse." (twitter.com)
  • "If wasting billions of dollars reduced inflation, we wouldn't have 9.1% inflation now. The reckless tax & spend spree passed by Senate Democrats today is a disaster — the only thing that will be reduced is the amount of money in hardworking families’ pockets. #alsen" (twitter.com)
  • "President Biden promised no new taxes on the middle class, but his new inflation bill would increase taxes for everyone earning more than $30k.This is another broken promise that’d hurt hardworking families the most." (twitter.com)
  • "Globalists in D.C. have put us last for decades, and I am eager to set them straight and stand up for truly fair trade. Whether it be trade deals, armed conflicts, treaties or foreign aid, I will make sure Alabama not only has a seat at the table, but benefits directly. This includes an emphasis on domestic manufacturing and production." (www.katiebrittforsenate.com)
