1)What does mining have to do with our gun rights?
(No antimony – no ammo. Many gun owners may not realize: antimony is an important component in ammunition and primers. That means our dependence on foreign mineral supplies can become an issue for the firearms community as well as for national defense.)
2) You chair the Natural Resources Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, which puts you in a position to examine the actions of federal agencies and how they manage America’s lands and resources. Where are you finding the greatest need for congressional oversight and accountability right now—and how do those decisions ultimately affect people back home in Arizona?
3) You also serve on the Oversight and Government Reform Committee’s healthcare-related work. You’re a dentist who spent 25 years in private practice before coming to Congress, so you’ve experienced healthcare from both sides. What do you believe Washington misunderstands about the relationship between patients, providers, insurance companies, and government—and where would you like to see reform?
4) There seems to be a common thread running through much of your committee work—from mining and energy to the border, federal agencies, and even the Second Amendment: after more than 15 years in Congress, where do you believe the balance between federal power and individual liberty needs the most attention?
5) How do people follow you?
