I live in Weathersfield, Vermont. I am seeking to be elected as a US Senator in 2024 to better represent all Vermonters.

I am 61 and married to Stacey Malloy. We have 4 children, ages 23 to 14. We have 3 in college and one in high school. I was born in Boston and at 18 entered West Point. I served 22 years on active duty in the Army worldwide. I have served in government positions and for 16 years as a defense contractor supporting our military mostly in the Washington, DC area. I have been successful in highly competitive business environments, growing jobs for technology and services businesses. I have an MBA from Temple University, a graduate certificate from Georgetown University and completed the Army Command and General Staff College. I believe in America and our Constitutional Republic and Democracy.

I have worked with 20+ allies in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the Persian Gulf; extensively across US Federal/State/Local Government agencies; and for small and large businesses including Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Bowhead (an Alaska Native Corporation). I am an energetic worker. I am the oldest of 9 children, a decorated Veteran, and member of the VFW, American Legion, Elks, Moose, NRA, and Annunciation Church. I am a former Army Hockey and Baseball player.

I love Vermont—its people, outdoors, four seasons, history, making Vermont maple syrup. I enjoy being with my family.

I ran for US Senate in Vermont when Senator Leahy retired. I won the Republican Primary but did not win the General Election. I have met tens of thousands of Vermonters and I have visited hundreds of businesses. I am running for US Senator because I know I can do better for Vermont and Vermonters and the United States of America to rebuild unity and actually make progress on the issues and problems and crises we are facing.Our country is divided. We are polarized and stuck. We have 30 to 40-year career politicians, some we do not trust, some give us only talk, false hope or fear. Congress is not delivering progress.
Vermonters embrace change and it is time to try something different: Leadership. New, unifying, depolarizing Leadership. Leadership with integrity that represents you to accomplish results you want.
I offer common sense, open-mindedness, and character. I offer 43 years of leadership experience and performance. I will represent all Vermonters to start making actual progress on problems impacting us all. I will serve and produce results.
My platform, background, and pledge are below. I will work tirelessly for Vermonters to improve our economy, education, and safety, under the United States Constitution.

Economy
I will grow well-paying jobs in Vermont. I am a businessman. I have 15 years of Business Development success—growing business and jobs. I work in highly competitive technology and services environments, including Washington DC, across industry, government, and academia. I will bring business and jobs to Vermont. Your members of Congress have not done this, I will.
I see America’s entrepreneurial spirit waning. I will work to rejuvenate it in Congress and with our Governor and Legislation to promote business and innovation, not stifle it. I have visited hundreds of Vermont businesses, the common theme I heard is ‘reduce government regulation’—I will.
I will act with discipline and fiscal responsibility.
We have a $34 trillion debt. The Federal and State budgets have increased 50% since 2019. The budget deficit this year alone has more than doubled. We are on a 100% unsustainable path.
I will support balanced budgets and fixing Social Security, Medicare and other entitlements, restoring their long-term solvency, not cutting them.  I do not support Government Intervention/Industrial Policy related to drug and healthcare prices. I will support changes to US Government Patent Laws that could dramatically decrease drug prices.
I will not support tax increases. I will not support overspending; the trillions of dollars our Congress is overspending is a major contributor to the inflation we are all experiencing and – and you and your children and children’s children pay for it.
I will not support the rampant Industrial Policy/Government intervention/full blow subsidy failure mode we are in. Again, you, Taxpayer, pay for it.
I will seek to ensure open/free market, fair trade, however I will seek to sanction trade with countries that are communist/violating human rights, funneling opioids into our country, stealing US technology, or do not support fair trade. I will increase made in Vermont, made in the USA.
I will support farming, dairy, and agriculture in Vermont and across the United States.
I will support the US achieving food, energy, and critical technology independence—this will enable the United States to maintain a strong economy AND achieve abilities to transition to renewables AND lower gas/heating/cooling costs.
Education
Education is our future, and the quality of public education in Vermont and the United States has been on the decline. Instead of overspending trillions of dollars subsidizing industry, China, and wealthy Americans, I will refocus balanced budget funding to improve public education.
I will be a champion for States, Local School Boards, and Parents to determine education matters. I will be a champion for Parents alone to determine what is taught to their children.
I will seek to ensure Unions impact only wages and conditions and are not politicized as they are now.
I will consider major educational changes, such as the dissolving the US Department of Education.
I will not support unconstitutional acts such as Student Loan Repayment, but I will seek to reduce payments by waving accrued interest and fees.
I support School Choice.
Safety
I will fully support our Law Enforcement community.
I will seek to enforce immigration laws, and change immigration laws as necessary. I will secure our southern border to address the crime, opioid/Fentanyl, and illegal immigration crisis.
I will support a strong military with overmatch capabilities. I will ensure accountability and value for all military spending.
I will support development of renewable energy capabilities. I will support continuing to reduce emissions.
