"Don understands that the status quo is not acceptable.  We need leaders like Don that will fight against bigger government and the out of control spending in Washington.  I support his effort to challenge the entrenched bureaucrats and incumbents in Washington that continue to ignore the call of the people to reduce spending, lower taxs and pass on a better America to the next generation."

- Congressman Pete Hoekstra

"Don Volaric has not spent a generation campaigning for political offices. He has been working from the ground up in the private sector, learning what grows jobs, and how to work more efficiently with limited resources. In his business, if the service isn’t responsive to the client, the clients can take their business elsewhere. Short of relocating, those in the 12th District can’t take their business elsewhere, but they can hire new personnel."

- Oakland County Executive L. Brooks Patterson

"I endorse Don Volaric because we need common sense leadership to end business as usual in Washington D.C.. Don brings real world experience, principled leadership and the backbone to stand up for the American taxpayers against runaway government. Enough is enough - it's time to take back our country. Vote for Don Volaric."

- Mike Bishop, Senate Majority Leader and Candidate for Attorney General

"Don Volaric will bring fresh ideas to Washington as a citizen's representative. As a small business owner with many backgrounds, one being health insurance, he has the right expertise to tackle the nation's heath care problems.  Don will seek to protect our senior citizens and give them the respect they deserve, as he is a "senior's agent."

"We are happy Don Volaric has chosen to represent the vast majority of American voters who favor immigration enforcement instead of any form of Amnesty for illegal immigrants. Don is running against Congressman Sander Levin who has earned a deplorable F rating from NumbersUSA due to his support for "Amnesty Enticements" and other rewards for illegal immigrants.  Sander Levin is on the record in DC as supporting in-state tuition and health care reform bill benefits for illegal aliens.  Both measures are opposed by the greater majority of American voters who reject taxpayer benefits for illegal immigrants."

 "If you want to put some common sense in Washington then you must cast a vote for Don Volaric. He is not a career politician and will focus on people instead of party and politics. Don’s belief in smaller government and fiscal responsibility will help bring REAL CHANGE to our country."

- Mark Bliss, Community Volunteer and Former Candidate for Madison Heights City Council

"As election results across the county show, the American People/TEA Party are insisting upon a representative, conservative government, not establishment, machine politicians. I believe that, as a citizen, small businessman, and family man, Don Volaric is highly qualified to represent the taxpayers of Michigan, and fight the ever-expanding, cancerous bureaucracy that is stealing our liberties."

- "Wild Bill" Hollister, Co-Chair - Metro Detroit Freedom Coalition (MEDEFCO)

"It was always a pleasure working with you and reassuring to know of the great lengths you took to guarantee due diligence to the program and your clients. It’s nice to meet someone with such integrity & honest work ethics."

- Marie Wolber

"Don has a willingness to help others and with his great passion for politics, he will make a great Congressman for Michigan!"

- Shelly Obzrut, Accountant, SAO & Associates

"Don Volaric has demonstrated the ability to start, build, and sustain a successful small business through hard work and sensitivity to the needs of his clients.  He will bring that same talent, energy, and dedication to the needs of his constituents when he is our congressman."

- Thomas Voss, GM Retiree

"I've known the Volarics (Don & Lynn) for several years.  They are loving, compassionate, and have the family ideals/values that I expect from a Congressman to represent us.  Don is also a true Conservative who will not waver from his core principles."

- Harry F. Branca, Jr., GM Project Manager

"With Don's passion and integrity that is second to none, we all have reason to stand behind him because we know he will make the real changes that the people of his district want.  I feel that with having Don in Congress, my children have a better chance at a prosperous future without paying for everything that is being passed down to them now."

- Suzanne Smith, Homemaker and mother of two

"Don is very energetic and a self made businessman.  He is a "Citizen Representative," not the usual politician.  He is what we need to represent us in Washington."

- Steve Klusek, Supplier Quality Engineer

"When you meet Don, you immediately know that he is passionate about what he believes in...family, doing what is right, standing up for others, and most definitely running for Congress to act on those beliefs and make a real difference.  There is no "status quo" in any aspect of Don's personality!"

- Martine Voccia, Ford employee and Photographer

 

 

Welcome!

Dear fellow American,

 

You don’t have to look far today to find proof that Americans in general, and Michigan citizens in particular, are upset with politics as usual in Lansing and Washington. Incumbents who haven’t already announced their retirement are scrambling. They know that unlike in the past, voters can no longer afford to judge good speeches or intentions. Today’s voters are judging results. It’s no secret that both parties share blame.

When this country was founded, the government was made up of citizens who never envisioned spending their lifetime in public office. They knew that to do so, one risked becoming far too comfortable, too cozy with special interests, and susceptible to corruption and addiction to power. They also knew, having fled a tyrannical government, that the new country needed two separate systems – a strong state government, and a limited federal one. The federal government would handle only certain specified issues. Everything else would remain with the states.

Today’s government in Washington is a far cry from that envisioned by the Founders. It is too big, too inefficient, and too far removed from the people it seeks to serve. It spends money it doesn’t have on things it doesn’t need to avoid future budget decreases. It awards no-bid contracts to select political connections rather than demanding the most for our money. It has grown so arrogant that it seeks to extend its very reach into our homes and dictate even what light bulbs we may use. The federal government has a proper role and it is time to return the balance. It is time to let the people of Michigan have a stronger role in solving Michigan’s economic challenges rather than cede our future to the whims of entrenched, status-quo bureaucrats.

That’s why I am running for Congress – to stand up for YOU and this great state against the self-serving politicians willing to sell out Michigan to buy off Nebraska politicians and hand your family the bill. I want to bring a fresh perspective to protecting citizens against threats to our prosperity, security, and liberty – because what they’re trying right now clearly isn’t working. I’m not a politician. I’m a small business owner, a father, and a proud American who believes in common sense, time-tested ideas of personal responsibility, Constitutionality, and integrity. I am a proud supporter of the Second Amendment, protecting the most vulnerable at both ends of the life spectrum or special needs, empowering families, a strong national defense, and a free enterprise system designed to provide opportunity FOR ALL. I’ve heard the pundits and I’m here to tell them I’m not ready to turn out the lights on my children and I know you aren’t either. Please email me at Don@VolaricforCongress.com and let me know you’re ready to fight. I can’t do it without you!

Eternally optimistic,

Don Volaric
Candidate for Congress
Michigan's 12th Congressional District
