Where Tackett stands

Jobs, wages & cost of living

Out of control electric and gas prices hurt our economy, cost jobs, cost global competitiveness, and hurt ordinary people the hardest.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

As an Assistant Mayor, I’ve seen firsthand how disconnected Washington has become from the everyday needs of Americans. Too often, local communities are expected to solve big challenges with limited resources while decisions are made hundreds of miles away by people who don’t understand what our communities are facing. I’m passionate about empowering local communities because that’s where government has the greatest impact on people’s daily lives. I believe cities, villages, townships, counties, schools, first responders, and local organizations should have the tools and resources they need to succeed.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

People Over Politics I’m an Independent who believes solving problems is more important than partisan fighting. I’ll work with anyone who has a good idea and stand up to anyone when it’s the right thing to do. Strong Local Communities Build a Strong America Washington has become disconnected from the needs of the American people. Decisions should empower cities, villages, townships, counties, schools, and local businesses. I’ll fight to bring resources back home, support first responders, strengthen infrastructure, and help communities thrive. Responsible Government That Delivers Results Taxpayers deserve accountability, fiscal responsibility, and practical solutions. I’ll focus on growing the economy, supporting agriculture and small businesses, protecting public safety, and making government more transparent and effective.
