Where they stand, issue by issue
Quotes are taken from each campaign's own website (first sentences of the section, unedited). Topics are assigned by keyword; we do not summarize or score positions. "No public position found" means we did not find the topic on the campaign site, not that the candidate has no view.
Labor unions for decades have been under constant attack by business interests. Mike stands firmly with his brothers and sisters in organized labor and seeks to incorporate labor unions in as many ways as possible in our economy.source
Both parties have spent money we don't have for decades, and working Americans are paying the price. The national debt is a ticking time bomb for our kids and grandkids. I'm not beholden to either party, which means I can actually do something about it.source
We must protect and expand these services that have been so crucial to the lives of millions of Americans. Social Security has proven to be the most successful government program throughout U.S. history, ensuring that our elderly population are able to retire comfortably and not in poverty.source
Nebraskans are hurting from a thousand little cuts to their paychecks. I will take on the corporations and their chosen political lapdogs to restore economic liberty and fairness for the working Americans who make this country run. Elders should be able to age gracefully.source
The United States government hasn’t technically participated in a war since World War Two, and yet we continue to fight on foreign lands.source
Mike supports ending the Supreme Court’s ruling on Citizens United, and believes that all elections in the United States must be funded purely through tax dollars. We continue to witness politicians across both political parties wilfully take corporate PAC dollars or foreign lobbying money.source
Family farms and ranches are the lifeblood of Nebraska. As U.S. Senator, I will take on Washington special interests and the corporate monopolies stealing money from producers and making everything unaffordable for all of us.source
