Today’s Waltham, Massachusetts, Daily News Tribune<\/a> posted a story about Marty Lamb, who is running in the Republican Primary for Senate in the 3rd Congressional District in Massachusetts.   Mr. Lamb was discussing his “lamb chop plan” – a 10-point strategy for cutting federal spending and the taxpayer burden.<\/p>\n

The plan is basic common sense.  According to the article, the plan includes:<\/p>\n

\n

“End corporate bailouts; pay off the national debt; limit expense increases to the inflation rate; stop creating new entitlement programs like the recent national health care plan; reform the earmark system; and re-establish a committee to propose cuts and scrutinize programs for worthiness.”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Mr. Lamb proposed an alternative to extending unemployment benefits–a payroll tax cut for a set period for employers and employees.  This would encourage hiring and stimulate the economy by giving people more money to spend.  <\/p>\n

Please follow the link above to check out Marty Lamb’s stands on various other issues.  Common sense is a rare quality in Washington today, and I believe that quality is what Marty Lamb brings to the discussion.<\/p>\n

Mr. Lamb summed up his campaign for the article:<\/p>\n

\n

“Lamb said he is taking the primary seriously, but “I’m still running against Jim McGovern.””<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I am planning to vote for Marty Lamb in November.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
