OTHER:<br />
I am a fifth-generation native <strong>of</strong> Janesville, Wisconsin,<br />

Charlie and Sam. I have put my economics and political<br />
science degrees from Miami University in Ohio to good<br />
use during my fourteen years in Congress. As Chairman<br />

health care more affordable and accessible.<br />

Washington. But we are ready for the fight.<br />

It begins by freeing small business from the burdens<br />
placed upon it by the federal bureaucracy. There’s<br />
too much red tape coming out <strong>of</strong> Washington, and<br />
unnecessary regulations eliminate countless numbers<br />
<strong>of</strong> jobs every year. And then there’s Obamacare.<br />
It costs too much, puts too many burdens on our<br />
job creators, and does nothing to address the real<br />
problems that plague our healthcare system. We will<br />
repeal it, and we will replace it with a program that<br />
works for the people, not against them. We’ll open<br />
up new trading opportunities to sell our goods, and<br />
we will hold those who break the rules <strong>of</strong> international<br />
trade accountable for their actions. In all things, we<br />
will empower our businesspeople, not burden them or<br />
ridicule them.<br />
We’re also going to protect and strengthen Medicare.<br />
Millions <strong>of</strong> Americans depend on the promise <strong>of</strong><br />
Medicare and we are going to honor that promise. We<br />
aren’t going to play political games with the program<br />
as it creeps closer to bankruptcy. Instead, we are<br />
going to save it through reforms that change nothing<br />
for today’s seniors and ensure that Medicare is there<br />
for future generations.<br />
We don’t duck the tough issues. Instead, we’ll lead.<br />
