- Give every parent in the state a school voucher to send their children to whatever school they want to send them to — public, private, religious, or home.
- Place every government employee on a defined contribution, 401(k) style retirement plan.
- Begin immediately tapping into our natural gas and oil reserves.
- Eliminate township governments.
- Give every law-abiding adult the right to carry a concealed weapon.
- Have a federal prosecutor investigate how Michael Madigan and his legal clients have benefited financially at taxpayer expense from his role as Speaker.
- Tell Judy Barr Topinka to retire.
