Judge Majette ON THE ISSUES:

JUDICIARY AND LAW ENFORCEMENT MATTERS
Gun Control

I am not an NRA member, but I respect the 2nd Amendment rights of all citizens who want to carry and use firearms in an appropriate and lawful manner. With rights come responsibilities. I support tough gun laws that provide severe penalties for people who abdicate their responsibilities by using guns to commit crimes or engaging in the unlawful trafficking of firearms. I also believe that it is reasonable to impose certain safety requirements, such as the requirement that each sale of a handgun include a child-safety lock, to protect our children.

FISCAL AND TAX POLICY
Repeal of the Estate Tax

We have a fundamental obligation to preserve the American dream for our children and grandchildren. The estate tax should be repealed. Families should not be penalized for their financial success. Our policies should encourage, rather than discourage, financial success. When we allow families to build wealth, it strengthens the community and insures that every generation leaves something more for the next generation. However, we should continue to provide incentives for estate beneficiaries to make large charitable, civic, religious, and/or educational contributions from estate proceeds within a certain period of time after the passing of the decedent.

Good viewpoint! A black female Democrat who is in favor of simple gun rights.
