—Vicky Hartzler's campaign website, http://www.vickyhartzler.com/issues/ |
2012
On her campaign website, Hartzler listed the following 11 issues:[166]
- Freedom and Prosperity: "My life values are faith, family, and freedom, the bedrock of the U.S.A. They have blessed all of us for more than two centuries. These guiding principles are under direct attack by liberal one-party rule in Washington. Our Fourth District congressman has loaned our vote to Nancy Pelosi. When she needs him, he comes running. It is time for a change. American history tells us prosperity always comes from freedom, not from assaults on freedom."
- Spending and Debt: "I will support an immediate end to the wasteful and inefficient pork-barrel spending, a Balanced Budget Amendment and line-item veto, and a freeze on discretionary spending except for our national defense, including veterans, Medicare, and Social Security. Basic common sense says that nobody can spend themselves rich. You can’t get out of debt by borrowing more money. Congress believes the opposite. We must stop squandering the future of our children and grandchildren. One-party Washington is burying us under a mountain of deficits and new debt."
- Liberty and Free Enterprise: "Congress and the President are making an unprecedented reach for power to control the economy and just about every part of our life. This grab for power will unleash devastating economic and societal consequences on all Americans. I support the individual liberties guaranteed in the Bill of Rights because freedom is the foundation for greater opportunities and achievements. Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are rights endowed on all Americans, born and unborn. I am 100% pro-life and a staunch supporter of our Second Amendment."
- Taxes: "As the founders knew, the government is best which governs least. Therefore, it is imperative that government take in taxes only the minimum required to safeguard our freedom and families. Like you, I dream of a better life for every family. The runaway spending and special interest politics in Washington will lead straight to more taxes and fewer opportunities. New taxes need to be stopped in their tracks. I have a record of proven resolve on low taxes. In the Missouri legislature, I worked for lower taxes on families, job creators and seniors, and voted against every major tax increase bill that came our way."
- Healthcare Reform: "I heard firsthand many good ideas for what would help, and what would not be helpful. I listened while you spoke. A bad bill puts bureaucrats between us and our doctors, raises costs and lowers quality, rations care, or cuts the Medicare promised to our seniors. This Congress gave us a bill that is even worse than bad. Americans oppose ObamaCare or anything like it. Liberal Washington knows we oppose ObamaCare. They just don’t want to listen. They want to shove it down our throats. I support real reform that will lower costs, increase competition, provide affordable insurance for those with pre-existing conditions, prevent unfair insurance policies, expand coverage, and preserve the right to see the doctor of our choice. Washington must start over and get it right."
- Energy Independence: "The U.S.A. is blessed with abundant resources including many forms of energy. We need to utilize what we have in safe, environmentally-friendly ways. It is imperative to national security that we take proactive steps to become energy independent. Instead of capping our energy resources and limiting energy production here at home, let’s aggressively pursue all energy alternatives, including building more nuclear power plants, drilling for oil and gas in coastal waters and ANWR, developing biofuels, using the abundance of clean coal with which we are blessed, and expanding hydro, wind, and solar-powered alternatives. We cannot allow ourselves to remain hostage to foreign interests. The future depends on it."
- Agriculture: "Agriculture is a large part of my life. I grew up on a farm, and Lowell and I farm today. We raise corn, soybeans, wheat, and cattle, and we also buy groceries. I know the fundamental importance of agriculture to Missouri and the nation. The American farmer and rancher feed the world and provide a safe, abundant, and low-cost food supply for our citizens. It is vital that our farmers and ranchers have a level playing field as they market their products world wide. They should be able to pass on the farming legacy without the devastating death tax and be able to operate without onerous government regulations."
- Education Reform: "I believe the best education occurs locally through the commitment of parents, local schools, teachers, and the community. Washington does not know what is best for our children. Parents and teachers know best. This premise should be the focus of any bill."
- National Defense: "The federal government has the important Constitutional role to provide for the common defense. We have the best military in the world and it must remain the best. In our own Fourth District we have vital bases from which our men and women are called to defend freedom around the world. They must have the best equipment, latest technology, and proactive leadership that recognizes and funds all possible avenues of threat mitigation, including a strong missile defense."
- A Citizen Legislator: "With your help, I will go to Congress as a true citizen legislator. I’ll fight for what we know is right. I’ll work to bring us back to a course that is true to our beliefs and right for America’s future. I’ll stand up for an America that allows each of us, regardless of the circumstances of our birth, to achieve the full measure of life."[166]

Personal Gain Index

- See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)
The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:
PGI: New Worth
Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Hartzler's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $2,197,027 and $14,189,995. That averages to $8,193,511, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Hartzler ranked as the 49th most wealthy representative in 2012.[167] Between 2009 and 2012, Hartzler's calculated net worth[168] decreased by an average of -3 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[169]
Vicky Hartzler Yearly Net Worth | |
---|---|
Year | Average Net Worth |
2009 | $9,037,179 |
2012 | $8,193,511 |
Growth from 2009 to 2012: | −9% |
Average annual growth: | −3%[170] |
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[171] |
The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.
PGI: Donation Concentration Metric
Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Hartzler received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the retired.
From 2009-2014, 24.14 percent of Hartzler's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[172]
