Support of the Trades
Understanding that not everyones life path takes them through college, and that our country is dependent on highly-skilled tradespeople who have not found secondary education to be necessary, the Federal government should provide financial assistance to trade schools throughout the country and support for those entering into trade schools.

Reclaim powers from the Executive Branch
