"This next period in the United States calls for a financial expert. We do not need another lofty businessman, nor another career politician. We need someone to guide this country in the right direction.

I have had enough with the Federal Reserve knowingly causing inflation, which causes suffering throughout the country. I have had it with the ‘talking lane’ of corrupt American politicians," Laffey said.The issues highlighted on Laffey's campaign website include education, China, the national debt, U.S. spending and the Second Amendment.
