PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRAT

Mobirise Website Builder

A different kind of candidate

ACTION NOT WORDS. Victor Weintraub is a very different candidate for Congress. Victor is a Progressive Democrat with a program. He will take action. He will propose a bill in Congress to expand Medicare to all Americans, paid for by a small employer tax on earnings. This would remove private profit from the health care system. He will propose a bill in Congress to subsidize states so they can provide two years of higher education to all Americans who qualify. This will strengthen our democracy. He will propose a reasonable immigration system that provides for Dreamers and treats long-term residents fairly.

Victor Weintraub is not a lawyer or a politician. Victor is a retired businessman who operated his own mortgage lending company, First Charter Financial Corporation, for 40 years. He specialized in hospitality and commercial lending. He decided to run for Congress to represent his neighbors and help them benefit from his years of knowledge and experience during this difficult time for our democracy.

Victor was born and grew up in New York City. He received his MBA from Columbia University and his bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering from New York University. He has lived in Arizona for 40 years. He has been married to his wife, Carole, for 57 years. They have three grown children and three grandchildren. The photograph above shows most of the extended family. Victor is the bald gentleman in the middle. Victor is a grandfather. Congress could use another grandfather. Victor is also a veteran.

While at Columbia, Victor studied economics in addition to finance and management. Victor has written on several economic topics and has a good knowledge of economics. He has also published three novels.

Victor has the business knowledge and experience to recognize the difference between truth and pie-in-the-sky political fantasy. Knowledge and experience for the voters that I will be representing.

THE ISSUES

Every candidate running for office lists several election issues. They are saying they favor specific issues. They do not say what they like or dislike about the particular issue. They do not say what they intend to do. If you look at all of the candidates, they are all the same.

Victor Weintraub is different from the crowd. I have identified three issue areas that, when I am elected to Congress, I intend to address. These are Universal Health Care, Education, and Immigration. These are the three areas that I have picked to concentrate on. I am limiting it to three because I can not focus on everything. I will be one of 435 members of the House of Representatives. These three areas are discussed more fully below.

Yes, there are many areas where I will vote in favor. Here is my big list. Affordable housing, protecting social security and senior rights, protecting women and reproductive rights, protecting voting, civil, and democratic rights, protecting LGBTQ, union, and the right to organize rights. Holding down inflation and improving the economy. Most other liberal and progressive issues.

Medical
UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE

Take the insurance companies out of health care. We spend a lot of money on health care insurance. Our results are sometimes good, but often are very expensive and inefficient. The problem is that our health care system involves the insurance industry, which does not provide health care. They are a middleman. Companies and unions buy health care from insurance companies, which in turn buy it from other providers.

We need a universal health care system that purchases directly from providers. We need to expand Medicare to cover all Americans. Instead of paying an insurance company for coverage, we will pay a health care tax to a government agency, which administers and pays for our health care. The cost will be about the same as it is now. We will save on the overhead, administration, and profits of the insurance industry.

Many other countries have universal health care. I do not think that anyone has insurance in their system. The Affordable Care Act, commonly known as Obamacare, is a first step in this direction. If we all make payments to a government agency and eliminate insurance, we will have better health care coverage at the same or lower cost. We should eliminate insurance company involvement in healthcare.

Education
EDUCATION

We have the best education system in the world. Students from all over the world come to our educational institutions. We have free public education in every state through the 12th grade. A well-educated population is the backbone of our strength.

The concept of a free public education through the 12th grade dates back to the 1800s. Those were much simpler times. We now live in a technological world. As a nation, we should raise educational attainment by 2 years. I am not suggesting that this increase should be free. I suggest that the federal government provide a subsidy to all states so that the cost of junior college becomes very low. I may be ahead of my time on this suggestion. 

Immigration
IMMIGRATION

We have been all around on this subject. We have had open borders and a large number of illegals entering our country. We now have tightly closed borders and no immigration. We now have a program of deporting all kinds of illegal immigrants. The time has come for us to step back, review what we are doing, and decide whether everything makes sense. Everybody has a different opinion. We need some serious discussion and serious, intelligent evaluation.

We should seriously look at the situation of the people that we call dreamers. We should also look at long-term residents who are just laborers. We also need a system that allows people to immigrate based on background, education, and economic factors.

We can not just go ahead unless we have a reasonable plan. We are all descendants of immigrants.


PLEASE VOLUNTEER

I can use all the help that interested people can provide.
Get involved in politics. You may have fun.

I would appreciate any time that you can give. Part-time, full-time, or just occasional. There are all kinds of things that need to be looked after. Telephone, email, meetings, PR, and fundraising. You name it. Could you help me win the election? Please fill in the form. I will contact you.
