ISSUES
Where We Stand
Restore Law & Order
Defend Forgotten America Action believes that safe communities are the foundation of prosperity. The organization supports empowering local law enforcement to put violent criminals —not defunding them. We must end the soft-on-crime policies that have turned many American cities into danger zones. We support strong sentencing for violent offenders, protecting officers from political attacks, and restoring respect for the rule of law at every level. Law enforcement are partners, not oppressors, in securing peace and opportunity for working families.
Keep Our Borders Secured
Thanks to President Trump, America’s borders are finally secure after the lawlessness of the Biden administration. Defend Forgotten America Action is fighting to make sure we make this progress permanent. We support finishing the border wall and cracking down on sanctuary cities that undermine immigration enforcement. Unchecked illegal immigration hurts American workers, strains local hospitals and schools, and endangers communities through drug and human trafficking. Our border security strategy that prioritizes American sovereignty and the safety of our communities.
Bring Back Manufacturing and Secure Supply Chains
For decades, elites in both parties shipped our manufacturing jobs overseas and crippled our supply chains, leaving us dependent on our adversaries. Thanks to President Trump, this is finally changing. We share his mission of bringing back manufacturing, especially energy, defense, and medical supply production, to American soil. We support tax and regulatory relief for American manufacturers, fair trade agreements that put American workers first, and investment in vocational training. We must end reliance on adversarial nations like China and rebuild the industrial backbone of America’s heartland.
Ensuring America’s Farmers Thrive
America’s farmers and ranchers are not only the heart and soul of our country. They are critical for our economic and national security. Defend Forgotten America Action stands with them against Washington red tape and radical environmental mandates and support expanding domestic markets for U.S. agriculture. Farmers are stewards of the land and must be allowed to thrive without bureaucratic interference.
Champion Energy Dominance
Energy dominance is critical for every aspect of Defend Forgotten America Action’s mission. We support unleashing American energy production—from natural gas and oil to clean coal and next-generation nuclear—by cutting red tape and reversing anti-energy regulations. Affordable, abundant energy is essential to national security, job creation, and lowering costs for working families. America’s heartland must power America’s future.
Rebuild Crumbling Infrastructure
Defend Forgotten America Action advocates for rebuilding America’s roads, bridges, and broadband networks, especially in rural and small-town communities that Washington often overlooks. We are working to cut the red tape that has delayed or killed projects.
Secure the American Dream
Defend Forgotten America believes that every American family deserves a fair shot at the American dream, including buying a home, starting a small business, and saving for the future. But Washington’s overregulation made it harder for hardworking families to access the credit they need to get ahead. The organization supports strengthening local Main Street institutions that know their communities best, not empowering unelected bureaucrats or Wall Street elites.
