Issues - Dr. Al Olszewski for Congress

DR. AL ON THE ISSUES

IMMIGRATION & BORDER SECURITY

Last year alone, almost 2 million immigrants crossed our southern border and the Democrats in Washington refuse to stop the influx of drugs and criminals into our country. Dr. Al will fight to secure our southern border by finishing Trump’s wall to stop the influx of illegal immigrants who are entering the United States. Dr. Al will oppose any efforts to give amnesty, citizenship, or work visas to those who have broken our laws.

ELECTION SECURITY & BALLOT INTEGRITY

Dr. Al believes in the sanctity of fair and free elections in our country. While Democrats, Big Tech and foreign interests push to weaken our elections laws, Dr. Al will fight to protect Americans’ most sacred right by requiring all voters to present a photo ID issued by federal, state, local, or tribal government.

GOVERNMENT SPENDING & RUNAWAY DEBT

Dr. Al understands that runaway inflation is causing prices to soar on everything from groceries to gas because the politicians in Washington are addicted to wasteful government spending. We must elect a true Montana conservative who will restore the policies of President Trump, cut government spending, reduce the national debt and pass legislation to finally require a balanced budget.

PUBLIC LANDS

The federal government has failed Montana in properly managing Federal lands in our state. This has led to catastrophic wildfires that destroy our clean air, pure water, and abundant wildlife. They have forced Montanans off public lands by blocking off our access to over 20,000 miles of public access roads and crippled “Made in Montana” responsible natural resource production. As a state senator, Dr. Al supported the Public Access to Lands Act and will support state control and greater access to Montana’s public lands for all Montanans. Montanans know how to best manage public land, natural resources, and wildlife – not federal bureaucrats.

TRUMP CONSERVATIVE

Joe Biden and the liberal Democrats in Washington are putting Montanans at risk with open borders, out-of-control spending and failed energy policies. Dr. All will fight to restore the Trump policies and put America and Montana first. He will fight for energy independence, Montana jobs and a secure border.

AGRICULTURE

Dr. Al knows it’s time to put America first when it comes to our nation’s agriculture. For far too long our livestock producers have gotten the short end of the stick with commodity prices. The federal government has allowed big international corporation monopolies to reap historic returns on the backs of our honest, hard-working Montanans. Allowing our world class Montana products to be diluted with lesser quality imports has short changed producers. Dr. Al’s desire to right this wrong has been a continued priority. As a member of the Montana Senate Agriculture Committee, he sponsored a bill to require country of origin labeling for the products we buy at our local grocery stores. We should know where our food is grown! It is time for transparency.

2ND AMENDMENT & RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS

Dr. Al is staunch supporter of our Second Amendment gun rights and has a lifetime ‘A’ rating from the NRA. He opposes limitations on our right to own firearms including .50 caliber rifles and will stand up against out-of-state interests to protect Montanans’ hunting rights.

FIGHTING THE ANTI-POLICE AGENDA

Liberal democrats are putting families at risk by pushing to defund the police across our country. Dr. Al will fight against the anti-police agenda of Washington Democrats and left-wing groups and he will work to protect law enforcement from being defunded.

MONTANA VALUES IN GOVERNMENT

Dr. Al will bring Montana values – honesty, integrity and ethical leadership – to Congress. Montana needs a congressman who puts Montana first, not out-of-state special interests.

VETERANS

Dr. Al proudly served his country honorably in the Air Force for 13 years as a flight and trauma surgeon who received specialized training in order to perform emergency surgery on the battlefield. He fought to protect our servicemembers on the battlefield and will continue to fight to protect our veterans’ benefits in Congress.

ENERGY

Montanans need affordable and reliable power. Dr. Al will fight to remove unnecessary regulations for energy facilities and end subsidies for wind and solar power. He will work to expand all energy resources – including coal, nuclear, hydrogen, and hydro and will never give up the fight for the Keystone XL Pipeline.

EDUCATION

Dr. Al believes the Department of Education needs to be abolished. He has always supported school choice and funding students, not systems. In Congress, he will fight against teacher unions and other special interest groups that do not care about students receiving a quality education. Dr. Al will also support legislation to ban critical race theory from being taught in the classroom.

NATIONAL SECURITY

Joe Biden and his administration have no clue how to secure America at home or abroad. Dr. Al will work to send the unvetted Afghan refugees who were brought to the United States, and Montana, back to Middle Eastern countries which share their values. He believes we cannot, and should not, be the world’s babysitter, fight endless wars, and engage in nation building. The United Nations is a corrupt organization which only makes many of these problems worse and we need to tie our aid to whether or not a country supports us.

HEALTHCARE

Dr. Al knows if we are going to be serious restoring freedom in healthcare, we have to start by firing Dr. Anthony Fauci. Secondly, abortion is not healthcare and government should not fund Planned Parenthood or any other abortion provider. Third, we need to hold Big Pharma accountable for the harm they knowingly commit against Americans and depoliticize the FDA. Only then will we even be able to begin to see meaningful change.
