Links for Mr. Anderson
1. Do you support a $15/hr. minimum wage?
"Sure, I support a $15/hour minimum wage because at least it’s better than $7."
https://anderson2024.org/positions/livingwage/; 7/30/2024 ... {I did not even have to ask, I found this on his campaign page while preparing to ask the question. - John B. Edel}
2. Do you support a federal 15 week abortion ban?
"Nope. And that goalpost keeps getting moved. A couple years ago, it was 22 weeks. The principle is fine - trying to determine when it's too late for an abortion to be considered - but the effort has been mission creep to a national abortion ban. Which I don't support."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
3. Do you support repeal of the Affordable Care Act?
"Nope, certainly don't support repeal. The ACA is probably the most consequential piece of legislation passed in my lifetime. I'm quite proud of its impact today and will fight to defend it in Congress."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/2/2024 on X.
4. Do you support a path to citizenship for DREAMers?
"I do."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
5. Do you support cutting the Dept. of Education's budget?
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
6. Do you support limits on corporate election spending?
"Yes. Honestly, I'd rather they not be able to spend money at all. Elections are about people, not corporations. Companies will be fine."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
7. Do you support spending for the Ukraine military?
"Yep. I think supporting democracies is vitally important for the cause of global freedom. That being said, I am completely opposed to sending any American troops to fight someone else's war. But money, guns, and training? I'm all for it."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
8. Do you support raising taxes to balance the budget?
"Depends on which taxes and who is impacted. Certainly not opposed but I don't want to see regressive taxes used to balance the budget."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
9. Do you support more student loan forgiveness?
"Yep. A college education really isn't optional anymore and yet we're asking young people to pay for it as if it's a luxury. It's not and we're drowning our future in debt that has a domino effect on our economy, particularly housing"
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
10. Do you support taxing carbon pollution?
"Yep."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
11. Do you support raising the corporate tax rate to 28%?
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/2/2024 on X.
12. Do you support spending for the Israeli military?
"Not right now. Not until they change their approach and treatment of Palestinian civilians. Israel is a hugely important ally and our special relationship isn't in dispute. What is, however, is the humanitarian crisis happening in Gaza and Israel's role in it. They MUST to do..."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
13. Do you support a limit on asylum entries into the US?
"Nope, but I do think we have to do a much better job integrating them into our country. It helps no one to have homeless migrants on America's streets. We need to have a better infrastructure for asylum seekers when they get here, it's killing our mayors and their cities."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.

"Yep."
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
16. Do you support raising payroll taxes for Social Security solvency?
Mr. Anderson proposes removing the cap on taxable income which would not change the tax rate, but would expose higher earners to greater taxes. (See the answer to question 17 below.)
Answered by Quentin Anthony Anderson (@MrQAnderson) on 8/1/2024 on X.
17. Do you support cutting benefits for Social Security solvency?
"Nope. Eliminate the cap on taxable income and we don't need to scare seniors into thinking their future is uncertain."
