| Collapse all
A true son of Michigan, Jeff (J.D.) Wilson was born in Southfield and raised in Lansing, Michigan. He graduated from Lansing Eastern high school in 1984. Afterwards, J.D. attended Michigan State University where his abilities to identify the future utilization of technology grew beyond traditional educational methods. With a loud and proud personality, J.D. Wilson has successfully taught and presented in large auditorium crowds over the course of his career, participating in both live and virtual events. Politically, J.D. stands for strong constitutional conservative values with an additional background in technology and finance to fight back against leftist corporate and social media as well as the economic and security challenges posed by China and illegal immigration.
- I will be focused on shutting down the out-of-control spending by Joe Biden and the career politicians in the U.S. Senate that have caused the runaway inflation that is strangling our middle-class families.
- I will support making the Trump tax cuts permanent and reduce other taxes that punish everyday Americans. Even excise taxes on growing industries like wine and beer must be looked at for reductions to encourage small business growth and lower prices for consumers.
- As a reformer who has built my career on making government more efficient and reducing the size and scope of government, I know how to fix problems and make government run more like a business. Put simply, our government is too big and spends too much and we must cut the fat out of the system.
National security, the economy, and upholding the constitution.
Representative of the body who elects them.
To uphold the constitution of the United States and ensure the freedoms of the citizens of the United States.
One that defines America in relation to the legacy of the Founding Fathers. One of equality, justice, and freedom for all.
I worked in a family owned hardware shop. Spent at least a decade of my youth co-managing it.
The Outsiders. Courage and bravery lies within the soul.
Han Solo! Apparently we look alike.
Watching American politics subject itself to influence abroad.
Defining the nation.
One of two, two of one hundred. U.S. Senators need to represent their respective state down to the everyday Michigander.
To a certain extent. The American voice is key, it is critical that the masses have their voice heard not defined.
Publicly, in respect to those they represent.
