Liberty and True Justice for All...

Independent • Principled • Constitutional

We Lost This Skirmish
We also won because we planted seeds of Liberty.
The elitist corporate media spun their tales and obstructed, the insiders worked their clever plans, the non-profits choked in their mission, and I did what I could to get my message out. There were no debates in Austin, no comparative coverage in the so called newspapers. How can democracy in Austin survive such neglect? The rural counties shine in comparison and I salute them!
The people looked at my campaign, their overall situation, and that of our nation, and they decided to punish the national republican leadership for their handling of the war, false posturing and scandals.
To my dear supporters: you have given your donations and time. These selfless acts have resulted in a victory for all grass-roots freedom loving Americans. The message got out! In small ways, many of the people of the district have heard the message of the founding fathers of this great nation. Those seeds will help spawn new generations of leaders who will keep the flames of American style liberty alive.
It brings joy to me to serve you and my country in this way.
In closing, please send me an email, or call me at 512 398 6813. I want to stay in touch. I am also available to speak at your events. The fight to restore and preserve the US Constitution and Bill of Rights is never over.
In Liberty,
Grant Rostig

The Border(s) Issue
If we have no borders, we have no country.
Our current border policy is ineffective, un-enforced and hypocritical. We must allow people and cargo to cross our borders for legitimate reasons, and not block them with red tape. We must also stop dangerous people and cargo effectively.
One of the few Federal constitutional responsibilities is to defend our nation and our borders. At this time in our history, a time of wars, we must be even more vigilant. Grant will vote to maintain high levels of military spending and support for our honorable troops.
Taxes
Cut and Simplify
The Federal government spends too much. It taxes too much. It subsidizes its 'special' friends too much. And it definitely wastes too much! Grant calls for large cuts in "Tax, Borrow and Spend" ™.
The income tax is also far too complex. This is the fault of Congress! The IRS is unable and unwilling to correctly explain the law. The IRS is un-accountable to the public, and far too abusive in exercising its excessive power. Grant calls for massive simplification, on the lines of the 'Fair Tax' proposal (H.R. 25).
Law Enforcement
Do Right for Cops and Citizens
We recognize that there are some bad people and groups out there. We must enforce laws in line with our great classic American principles of justice and liberty, with respect for all involved.
Grant calls for good funding and management to keep our excellent civil servants in this critical function.
Limited Government
Follow the US Constitution
The federal government has grown far beyond its current constitutional authorization. Citizens, cities, counties and state governments have had their rights overrun.
Grant calls for decentralization; returning the power to the people. We must hold all officials accountable to the law.
