Where does Dave T. Beckwith stand on the issues?
Dave T. Beckwith has a recorded position on 10 issues. Each is Civoren's summary of the campaign's own public material, with the source linked.
Energy
SupportsSupports an all-of-the-above energy strategy that ends market-distorting subsidies, cuts regulatory red tape, and makes a serious reinvestment in nuclear power (streamlining permitting and supporting next-generation reactors) to lower costs and create jobs.
“Dave Beckwith supports an all-of-the-above energy strategy that ends market-distorting subsidies, cuts regulatory red tape, and makes a bold bet on nuclear power to lower costs and create good jobs.”
Fiscal Responsibility & Budgeting
SupportsSupports balanced budgets: Congress should not spend more than it takes in. Would fight for disciplined spending caps, stop pandemic-era emergency spending from becoming a permanent baseline, and root out waste, fraud, and abuse (improper payments he says cost taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars annually).
“Dave Beckwith believes Congress should live by the same rules that every family and small business in Virginia already follows: do not spend more than you take in.”
Gun Policy & Second Amendment
SupportsSupports the Second Amendment as a fundamental right; will oppose legislation that infringes on law-abiding gun owners and fight federal overreach into state and local firearms policy.
“In Congress, Dave will oppose any legislation that infringes on the rights of law-abiding gun owners, fight back against federal overreach into state and local firearms policy, and stand firm against the kind of incremental erosion that turns constitutional rights into permission slips.”
Healthcare Access & Affordability
SupportsSupports patient-centered health care - absolute price transparency, expanded access to Health Savings Accounts paired with catastrophic coverage, and an end to corporate subsidies for insurance giants - while protecting the American medical research base.
“he believes healthcare decisions belong with patients, not insurance companies.”
Housing & Development
SupportsSupports policies to unlock the housing market: portable mortgages that let homeowners carry their existing rate to a new home, indexing capital gains to pre-inflation prices, and a flat 5% tax rate to help families save for a down payment.
“Portable mortgages would let a homeowner carry their existing rate to a new property when they move.”
Immigration
SupportsSupports a zero-tolerance approach to criminal illegal aliens: those who break the law must be tried, punished, and deported.
“This includes a 'zero tolerance' approach to criminal illegal aliens; those who break our laws must be tried, punished, and deported.”
