Criminal Justice

As a first responder, Alden works closely with law enforcement on a regular basis. By legalizing cannabis at the federal level, ending qualified immunity, and ending the practice of civil asset forfeiture, law enforcement would be able to focus on more serious issues.

Taxes

Alden believes the government cannot tax its way to prosperity. Once a new tax is established, it is rarely repealed. Washington should be working on ways to cut spending and not brainstorming new things to tax.

Jobs

One of the best ways to encourage job growth is for the government to get out of the way. Excessive taxes, bureaucratic red tape, and often redundant professional licensing requirements all reduce opportunity and restrict job growth.

2nd Amendment

Alden fully supports repealing the NFA and dissolving the ATF. Prohibition only encourages a thriving black market. Rights are not to be treated as privileges. Felons who have paid their debt to society and pose no threat to the general public deserve the ability to protect their families via firearm ownership.

This country was established by ruffling feathers as well as demanding change through action. Change doesn’t happen by making cheap campaign promises. It happens by challenging the status quo, and not taking no for an answer.

We have people incarcerated whose only “crime” was possessing cannabis. We are taxed at every turn. Our government prints billions of dollars, while simultaneously saying there is a coin shortage. Elected representatives vote yes on bills they don’t even bother reading.

2020 was just the beginning. Voters are fed up with both “main” parties. Now is the time to be loud, and let the people know that we are the party of true representation and liberty.

Alden Johnson is a dedicated first responder who has spent his career working alongside law enforcement to keep communities safe. Living and working in Petal, Mississippi, Alden has seen firsthand how overreaching government policies hinder the ability of hardworking Americans to thrive. His experience on the front lines has shaped his belief that government should be a servant, not a master, and that individual liberty is the foundation of a prosperous society.

Alden is not a career politician. He is a citizen who has grown frustrated with the dysfunction in Washington and the erosion of constitutional principles. He believes that the federal government has strayed far from its intended role, and that it is time for a new generation of leaders who will stand firm for limited government, personal responsibility, and the rule of law. Alden is committed to representing the people of Mississippi with honesty, transparency, and unwavering dedication to liberty.

His campaign is built on the idea that real change comes from the bottom up, not the top down. Alden is not beholden to special interests or party elites; he answers only to the voters who sent him to Congress. By running a grassroots campaign, he hopes to inspire others to demand better from their elected officials and to reclaim the promise of the American dream.

Beyond the core issues of criminal justice, taxes, jobs, and the Second Amendment, Alden has clear positions on other critical matters facing the nation.

Education: Alden believes that parents, not bureaucrats, should have the primary say in their children’s education. He supports school choice, including charter schools and homeschooling, and advocates for the elimination of the federal Department of Education, returning control to states and local communities.

Healthcare: Alden is committed to a patient-centered healthcare system that empowers individuals rather than government. He supports allowing insurance to be purchased across state lines, increasing price transparency, and reducing burdensome regulations that drive up costs and limit options. He opposes any government takeover of healthcare and believes that free market competition is the best path to affordable, quality care.

Foreign Policy & National Defense: Alden advocates for a non-interventionist foreign policy that prioritizes the defense of the United States and the safety of its citizens. He believes in bringing our troops home from endless wars, ending foreign aid that does not serve American interests, and ensuring that any military action is authorized by Congress and directly related to national security.

Immigration: Alden supports securing our borders and enforcing existing immigration laws. He also recognizes the value of legal immigration and believes the process should be streamlined to welcome those who wish to contribute to our economy and respect our laws. He opposes amnesty for illegal immigrants and any policies that encourage lawlessness.

The success of this campaign depends on the energy and commitment of everyday Americans who are tired of business as usual. There are many ways to get involved and help send a true advocate for liberty to Washington.
