Well, it's the second time around that I'm running for congress. I anticipated being less enthusiastic if I had decided to run again. But, no, I'm just as if not more hype to get this article out.

So, firstly, I want to make reference to my first congressional ad and review what's happened since. Let's get into the transparency right off the bat. What have I done in my first term as a congressman?

Voting Record

First Term: July '13 to August '13

A- Voted in favor of Request for Reserve Total and SCI Disclosure

Reason: Doesn't make sense to vote on a budget without knowing how much we have. I believe this is essential in doing our job as Congress. Therefore, I prioritize objectivity over the risk of a leak in this instance.

B- Voted in favor of August Budget

Reason: I need more experience to understand the context of what the budget directly effects. My stance was, a little bit was cut from the prior two months. Nobody made an argument against it, went very smoothly. So, why not?

C- Voted in favor of IES Quotas

Reason: I don't see why not. In fact, I would've been in favor of it had the quota been set to 25 instead of 50. In regards to eRep, I'm pro tough immigration.

As I said in my first congressional ad, my voting record would be short. I wasn't really too vocal in this first term, mainly sitting back and reading, learning. I also recently graduated from Flight Training and just got to Air Force.

One of my major weaknesses was USAF knowledge, so why not get some first hand experience? I just interviewed Synesi, the Commander of Flight Training as a part of this quest for knowledge.

Outside of that, I wrote a couple opinion pieces here on eYoung Turks that can help show where I stand on certain issues:

Polish NAP Proposal

Voter's Club

Post ePOTUS Election/Unity

If someone would like me to touch on a specific subject, feel free to leave suggestions on this or any article I put out on eYoung Turks.

Congress Platform

Honestly, it's not much different than the first time. I feel I've given my claims some substance with my actions and articles thus far. While I spoke up in Congress a couple times, I was mostly learning. And I record what I'm learning on my newspaper. I claimed to be transparent, there's my voting record. There are my opinions.

I haven't been a divisive person in congress, simply been chillin. Going forward, I think it's pretty unanimous that everyone wants to get the work tax down to 1%. And we're gaining regions back, so everything's been going relatively well thus far.

So, hopefully you feel as though I've earned your vote and trust for at least one more month people of WTP. If there's any question anyone'd like to ask me, feel free to do so in the comments or as a private message. Let's get it eMurica!!

I'm eCenk Uygur and I approve this message.

No way I could leave this out...
