John Kennedy was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2016. He has built a distinguished career as a conservative champion for the people of Louisiana and a dedicated watchdog of taxpayer money.
Sen. Kennedy serves on the Appropriations, Banking, Budget, Judiciary, and Small Business Committees in the U.S. Senate. He serves as the top Republican of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water Development, Judiciary Subcommittee on Federal Courts, and Banking Subcommittee on Economic Policy.
I want a country and a state that respects taxpayer dollars. Our spending is out of control, our budget process doesn’t work, and our national debt is nearly $20 trillion. That’s almost $60,000 in debt for every American, including children. I support a balanced budget amendment to the United States Constitution, and I am committed to continue working aggressively to end waste, duplicative programs, and fraudulent or improper payments. Our country started out self-reliant, lightly-taxed, and debt-free: it’s time to get back to our roots.
