Clancy Baucom: Issues That Matter
Government Overreach
I believe in limited government that empowers individuals, not bureaucracies. The role of government is to protect our constitutional freedoms—life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness—while staying out of the way of hardworking Americans. I support eliminating excessive regulations, lowering taxes, and cutting wasteful spending to foster economic growth and fiscal responsibility.
Election Integrity
Our citizens must have full trust in our elections. Guaranteeing that every legal vote is counted accurately and the will of the people is essential. I support voter ID and signature verification, transparent processes, and common-sense reforms that ensure fair, honest elections across North Carolina.
Fiscal Responsibility
Tax dollars don't belong to legislative bureaucrats, they belong to the people. As your next House Representative for District 55, I will always remember that tax money was earned by hard-working North Carolinians. Being fiscally responsible isn't just the prudent thing to do for our state economy; it's the moral thing to do.
Protecting Our Farmland
Foreign enemies should never own American farmland. The latest estimate shows foreign countries own 700,000 acres of North Carolina farmland and 45.9 million acres of US farmland, putting our food supply and national security at risk. After I'm elected, I'll work to protect our farmland from getting into the hands of foreign adversaries.
We don't only have to protect our farmland from enemy countries, but also from our government. We’re facing a moment where developers see farmland as a profit margin, and our heritage is treated like an inconvenience. My family has farmed in Union County for generations, so I understand how over taxation and needless regulations burden farmers. Farmers deserve certainty, not the constant threat of regulations that could drive them out of business.
Family Values
My values are rooted in faith and family. I will always stand for the unborn and support pregnant women in crisis. I will also stand firm for religious freedom, parental rights, and wholesome content in schools.
