I have pledged to enact tax reform if I become President, and one basic goal of any tax reform must be to help and strengthen our families.

There can be no more urgent priority for the next administration than to see that every decision our government makes is designed to honor and support and strengthen the American family.

Our present welfare system is both anti-work and anti-family.

First, there would be a drastic simplification of the tax code.

I think the rate of increase would be carefully controlled, well-considered, and subject to a long-range plan.

I would try to shift the nation away from oil to increased use of coal.

I would like to give them job training and literacy instruction and get them job offers.

I would open up the deliberations of government as much as possible.

I would have a tough management attitude with the government itself.

Trust of people in government is the No. 1 issue.

Architectural barriers amount to fundamental discrimination.

It is the government's responsibility to do the very best it can to minimize the burden of those costs.

Neither of these is an appropriate or decent attitude.

I will implement the Education for All Handicapped Children Act as swiftly as possible, to insure that all the children in this nation can receive a high quality public education.

Vocational rehabilitation is a dead end if it does not lead to a job.

We will care, in dignity and respect and compassion, for those who cannot care for themselves.

We must attempt to enable all of our people to reach their full human potential.

Full rehabilitation—leading to economic, social and vocational independence—is our common goal.
