On the Issues

As a staunch supporter and defender of the Second Amendment, Patti Rockey firmly believes in the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. This right is fundamental for personal protection, self-defense, and safeguarding our liberties against tyranny. Organizations like the NRA and political figures who champion this right play a crucial role in preserving our freedoms.

Patti Rockey is a passionate advocate for the pro-life movement and believes that every human life is valuable and worthy of protection from the moment of conception. This stance is deeply rooted in the conviction that life is a fundamental right, and that society has a moral obligation to defend the most vulnerable among us—the unborn. 

Rockey also believes in the importance of supporting expecting mothers by providing them with the resources and alternatives needed to choose life over abortion. We need to foster a culture that cherishes life at all stages, advocating for policies that reflect compassion, responsibility, and care.

Being pro-life is not just about opposing abortion; it’s about nurturing a world where every human being is respected and valued. Patti Rockey will work to promote understanding, empathy, and tangible support for those facing difficult decisions, ensuring that the pro-life message is conveyed with kindness and dedication.

Transparency in all levels of government is crucial for fostering accountability, trust, and informed citizenry. When government actions and decisions are made openly and accessible to the public, it allows for scrutiny and ensures that officials are held accountable for their actions. This openness deters corruption, promotes efficient use of public resources, and enhances the overall functions of political institutions.

Enhancing government efficiency is not a singular task but a continuous journey. It requires the collective efforts of policymakers, public sector employees, and citizens. By embracing technology, fostering innovation, promoting accountability, and engaging in effective leadership, government can transform their operations and deliver high-quality services that meet the evolving needs of Ohioians. The ultimate goal is to create a government that is not only efficient but also responsive, transparent, and capable of driving positive change.

Simplifying or eliminating regulations and procedures can reduce administrative burdens and improve efficiency. Ohio should regularly review and update their regulations to ensure they are relevant and not overly complex. Streamlining processes can also involve removing unnecessary steps and redundancies.

Patti Rockey calls for a return to the basics and embrace common sense in education. This is not about discarding progress; it is about ensuring that fundamental principles remain at the heart of teaching and learning. By prioritizing literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, and character development, Patti aims to create an educational environment that equips students for the challenges of the future while honoring the wisdom of the past. Education, grounded in common sense and basic principles, holds the promise of empowering individuals to lead fulfilling lives and contribute to a thriving society.
