Dear Fellow Conservative,
Recently, I introduced the largest, most sweeping anti-poverty
legislation since LBJ's war on poverty began.
My proposed legislation will provide over 100 billion dollars to
the communities of this country that have been devastated by
chronic poverty.
Communities like Eastern Kentucky, who have been devastated by
President's war on coal, will be rescued.
Communities where the water is unsafe to drink like Flint,
Michigan, will be restored.
Communities like Ferguson, the south side of Chicago, and the
west end of Louiville will be given a chance to find the American
dream.
My legislation is not a gift or a grant. It simply allows over
$100 billion to remain in the hands of those who earned it.
This legislation will provide the incentive for businesses and
capital to return to the areas overwhelmed by chronic poverty and
unemployment.
We are just past the 50 year mark of the war on poverty. And
sadly, 50 years into it we are still fighting that war. Every one
of our states has areas of high poverty, high unemployment, and
shaky finances.
We know big government hasn't worked. I think it's time we try a
different approach.
An approach that harnesses the ingenuity and hardwork of
individuals, families, and businesses in our most afflicted
communities, that invites new investments to those communities,
and is free from government bailouts or Washington bureucrats
picking winners and losers.
I have an approach that finally restores hope and opportunity:
Economic Freedom Zones.

Economic Freedom Zones are areas of reduced taxes and regulations
and increased incentives for businesses.
They're more than a government stimulus or a handout.
They empower communities by leveraging the human capital, natural
resources, and business investment opportunities that already
exist.
Reducing the taxes in economically depressed areas is a stimulas
that will work because the money is returned to businesses and
individuals who have already proven that they can succeed.
Cities and counties will be designated as economic freedom zones
if local unemployment is 50% above the national average, or if
30% of residents live below the national poverty line.
Localities that are bankrupt of in danger of bankruptcy, are
eligible too in order to attract new investment and economic
activity that will help shore up the local finances without the
need for a bailout.
By slashing the federal tax rate to 5% for a 10 year period, we
can finally incentivize more businesses to locate in our
struggling communities and provide more jobs and opportunities.
And my plan leaves the hard earned dollars of those in the
community, right there, in the community.
It doesn't go to Washington where politicians pick winners and
losers, it stays where the consumer can decide who succeeds.
Economic Freedom Zones will work where government has failed.
This is a real opportunity to fight poverty.
Will you stand with me as I continue to push this legislation in
the Senate ( http://?
