Economy, jobs and wages

Reducing Regulatory Overreach: Work to simplify and limit the scope of federal regulation where it exceeds constitutional boundaries or creates unnecessary burdens on citizens and small businesses.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Elections and voting

I support repealing the 17th Amendment and restoring the selection of U.S. senators by state legislatures.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

I support expanding the House by 100–200 members and pursuing a constitutional amendment requiring Congress to reconsider representation after every census.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Increasing Government Accountability: Support measures that increase transparency across all branches of government and reduce institutional insulation from public oversight.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Restoring Constitutional Limits: Reaffirm the principle of enumerated powers and work to reduce federal overreach beyond what is explicitly authorized in the Constitution.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Strengthening Representation: Support reforms that improve the connection between citizens and their representatives and ensure that the House remains responsive to population and community realities.

Government reform

I am running to restore limited, enumerated government, return power to the people and the states, and rebuild a Congress that remembers its proper place.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

True freedom means you lead. We will ensure laws are simple and government is open so every citizen can participate in our democracy with confidence and understanding.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

The people would elect their representatives in the House and their state legislators, while those legislators would select senators charged with defending their state's interests in the federal government.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

The House should represent the people. The Senate should represent the states. Together, they should check centralized power.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Congress should write the laws, the President should execute them, and elected representatives should answer to the people for the decisions they make.

National security and foreign policy

I will work to restore Congress's constitutional authority over war, reduce unnecessary overseas military commitments, oppose regime-change wars, and demand clear congressional authorization before committing Americans to hostilities.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Increasing Government Accountability: Support measures that increase transparency across all branches of government and reduce institutional insulation from public oversight.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

America should maintain the strength necessary to defend itself while pursuing peaceful relations with other nations. We should send ambassadors to build relationships abroad rather than treating permanent military presence as the foundation of American diplomacy.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Taxes and government spending

I support moving toward a dollar backed by tangible monetary assets—including gold, silver, platinum, and copper to impose discipline and protect purchasing power.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

I support repealing the 16th Amendment and ending the federal income tax. Americans should keep more of what they earn while Washington learns to operate within constitutional and sustainable financial limits.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

I will work to restore congressional responsibility over money, move toward a metal-backed dollar, restrain federal spending and borrowing, confront the national debt, and repeal the 16th Amendment.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Increasing Government Accountability: Support measures that increase transparency across all branches of government and reduce institutional insulation from public oversight.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Improving Fiscal Responsibility: Advocate for more disciplined budgeting, reduced deficit spending, and greater accountability in federal fiscal decision-making.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Government should not take the value of your labor through taxation or take the value of your savings through inflation.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Technology and privacy

I will work to repeal the remaining unconstitutional surveillance authorities associated with the Patriot Act, strengthen warrant requirements, protect Americans' digital information, and oppose government attempts to circumvent the Fourth Amendment through new technologies or third-party data.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

I oppose indiscriminate surveillance and bulk collection of Americans' information and support repealing laws that enable unconstitutional searches or evade meaningful judicial oversight.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Emails, communications, location information, financial records, and personal data deserve meaningful Fourth Amendment protection rather than becoming an easy pathway for warrantless government surveillance.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Values and beliefs

I am a strict constitutionalist. Before I ask whether a bill sounds good, I ask a more fundamental question: Does the Constitution give Congress the authority to do it?

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

I advocate for a literal interpretation of the Constitution, ensuring that our laws reflect the original intent of the Founding Fathers and the document's text.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Other statements

I will judge legislation by a fundamental question: Does the Constitution authorize Congress to do this? ​ I will work to restore the nondelegation doctrine, reclaim legislative authority from administrative agencies, return Congress to its enumerated powers, and restore the constitutional balance between the federal government, states, and people.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Rebalancing Federalism: Support restoring a stronger role for states in governance and ensuring that federal authority does not unnecessarily override local decision-making.

sethhaskinforfl.com ·

Reinforcing Separation of Powers: Support a stricter application of the non-delegation doctrine so that legislative authority remains with Congress and is not transferred to unelected administrative agencies.
