Cut wasteful spending
Washington cannot keep spending money it does not have. Rufus supports serious spending restraint, a smaller federal government, and an end to debt passed down to the next generation.
Louisiana's 6th Congressional District
Not left.
Not right.
Free.
Rufus Craig is running for Congress to cut Washington down to size, defend individual liberty, and give Louisiana voters a real choice.

Why I'm running
Washington serves itself. It is time for Congress to serve you.
The two major parties argue over who gets to control a government that keeps growing. A Libertarian asks a better question: why should government control so much of your life in the first place?
The issues
Freedom you can feel.
Less debt. Fewer wars. More privacy. Real competition. A federal government focused on protecting your rights, not managing your life.
End endless wars
American strength should defend Americans. Rufus supports bringing troops home, avoiding unnecessary overseas conflicts, and putting peace and diplomacy first.
Protect civil liberties
Your rights do not disappear when government finds a new excuse to take them. Rufus stands for equal treatment, personal freedom, privacy, and due process.
Make healthcare prices clear
Patients should be able to compare real prices and outcomes before they receive care. Transparency creates accountability without putting more power in Washington.
Break the two-party lock
Voters deserve fair districts, competitive elections, and real choices. Rufus has supported independent redistricting and reforms that give every voter a stronger voice.
Support term limits
Congress should be public service, not a lifetime career. Rufus has publicly backed a constitutional path to congressional term limits.
The Libertarian difference
Live free.
Let others do the same.
Keep what you earn
Families and small businesses know how to use their money better than Washington does.
Own your life
Your body, beliefs, relationships, property, and peaceful choices belong to you.
Choose peace
America should be strong enough to defend itself and wise enough to avoid unnecessary war.
