Campaign website

Prasanth Reddy’s campaign website stated the following:

“	Dr. Reddy’s Priorities Dr. Prasanth Reddy and his family came to this country on the promise of the American Dream, and he has spent his life giving back to the country that gave his family so much. Defend our Nation After 9/11, Dr. Reddy joined the United States Air Force Reserve, and is a Lt. Colonel. He will continue to protect our nation and ensure our veterans are never mistreated again. Stand Up for Students & Parents Education made all the difference in Dr. Reddy’s American Dream. He will fight so every child has a shot at a quality education, and that every parent has a voice. Secure the Border As a legal immigrant himself, Dr. Reddy will fight to secure the border, stop the flow of dangerous fentanyl into our communities, and end illegal immigration. Support Law Enforcement While the Kansas City metro faces record crime, Dr. Reddy will give our law enforcement the resources they need, and will stand up to the Squad trying to defund them. Heal our Economy As a small business owner and experienced executive, Dr. Reddy will undo the Biden-Davids policies that have caused the worst inflation in a generation. Stand Up to China From spying on Americans, to unleashing a virus, to giving Mexican drug cartels what they need to poison our communities with fentanyl, Dr. Reddy believes that Communist China must be held accountable for its actions. Find Common Ground While Dr. Reddy is personally pro-life, he also strongly believes any legislation must include exceptions for rape, incest, danger to the health of the mother, and fetal abnormalities inconsistent with life. He also believes this issue should be left to the states, and that no federal tax dollars should fund abortions. Protect Taxpayers Education made Dr. Reddy's American Dream possible, and he took responsibility for its cost. He believes that student loans should be paid by those who took on the debt, and those who either paid off their debts or chose not to go to college shouldn't be expected to foot the bill.	”
