School Choice for Parents
Our schools are not always preparing our children to really advance in life. Parents should have the information they need to make decisions about their children’s education, and they should have access to all the educational options in their community. I support charter schools and school vouchers to allow all parents to choose the best education for their children.
Confronting Our National Debt
The United States has a debt problem. In 2000, our national debt was half of our GDP. Today it is twice that much and rising, primarily due to the steadily increasing costs of our welfare and entitlement programs. We cannot solve our debt problem without reforming those programs, and my plan to do this will save over $1 trillion per year, leading to long-term financial stability.
Elections, ethics & government
I am running for Congress because I want to change the way we relate to our government. My plan is to phase out all of our current welfare and entitlement programs and return this money (over $4 trillion per year) to the American people. Whether or not you agree with all the details of this plan, we need to engage in this discussion. The current system is unsustainable. You can find more details about my plan below.
Priorities
I am running for Congress because I believe that we need to directly address the serious issues facing our state and nation with clarity and a sense of responsibility for the future.
David Pan is not a current member of Congress, so there is no congressional roll-call record to show. State legislative or local records are not yet compiled.
