Derrick Michael Reid for Congress

Libertarian Candidate — California’s 47th Congressional District
Ending income taxes • Eliminating the national debt • Restoring liberty

Candidate Statement

For more than a century, Washington, D.C. has drifted away from its constitutional purpose. Excessive taxation, runaway deficits, endless debt, and foreign entanglements have left Americans less free and our children financially enslaved.

I am running for Congress to end income taxes, eliminate the national debt, and restore Constitutional governance. This campaign is about national unity under the Constitution — not division, not special interests, and not endless expansion of federal power.
