Steve Sauerberg, MD, Republican Candidate for US Senate
Terrorism poses a real threat to American security at home and abroad. Al Qaeda and other Islamic terrorist groups declared war on us well before 9/11 by bombing the USS Cole, murdering 241 American service men and women in Lebanon and attacking our Embassy in Kenya, in addition to other atrocities. We must stay on offense to defeat the global terrorist threat.
Steve Sauerberg's Plan to Keep Us Safe:- Stay On Offense Against the Terrorists Who Want to Destroy Our Way of Life. Terrorists have declared war on us. We must vigorously oppose all regimes that harbor terrorists and fight terrorists abroad so we don't have to do so here at home.
- No Timeline for Withdrawal in Iraq. Telling our enemies when we will leave Iraq is the surest road to defeat, which will increase the chaos in the Middle East and give terrorists an open haven in which to train and plan more attacks against us in America.
- Support Military Spending and Increase Funding for Covert Intelligence Gathering Operations. To prevent terrorist attacks against us, we must properly fund our military and spy agencies so they can gather the information we need to keep us safe and secure.
- Secure Our Borders.
- Keep Weapons of Mass Destruction Out of Terrorists' Hands. Iran must not be allowed to develop nuclear weapons and we must ensure that terrorists do not gain access to Pakistan's nuclear weapons.
- Support Israel. Israel is our strongest ally and the only true democracy in the Middle East. We must vigorously support Israel.
- Fight for the Benefits Our Brave Soldiers Deserve. Our veterans and active duty military personnel deserve top quality healthcare and increased funding for their education when they return home.
- End Our Dependence on Foreign Oil. We must develop alternative energy technology, such as clean coal, solar, wind and natural gas to end the stranglehold that hostile foreign dictators possess over our energy supply and policy.
- Protect Afghanistan. We cannot enable Taliban forces to allow Afghanistan to degenerate into an open haven for terrorists.
Liberal Senator Dick Durbin Has a Dangerous Record on Homeland Security:
-
Voted to Immediately Surrender and Withdraw From Iraq, which would leave the Middle East an open haven for the Islamic terrorists that want to kill us and destroy our way of life.
-
Voted Against a Pay Increase for Our Brave Soldiers
-
Compared Our Military to the Nazi, Soviet and Pol Pot Regimes on the Senate floor!
-
Voted Against Giving Our Border Patrol Officers the Equipment and Support They Need.
