Campaign website

Renacci's campaign website stated the following:

“
  • Plan To Put Ohio First
  • IMMEDIATE STATE SPENDING FREEZE & REQUEST SPENDING REDUCTION OF 10-15% OVER FIRST 12 MONTHS
    • Ohio Spends twice as much as states our size and almost the same as Florida, which is twice our size.
  • FULL TAX REFORM – WE TAX TOO MUCH
    • Revise and Remove C.A.T. tax.
    • Eliminate Income Tax over ten years.
    • Over time, execute a plan to move Ohio to a Consumption Tax.
  • MAKE OHIO A SANCTUARY FOR FREEDOM
    • Second Amendment Sanctuary State.
    • Sanctuary against oppressive regulations and executive branch overreach.
    • Sanctuary against oppressive taxation and illegal immigration.
  • WIPE OUT CORRUPTION AND “PAY TO PLAY” POLITICS
    • After numerous scandals, it is time to root out the corrupt culture that has thrived in Columbus. Remaking the culture can be done by transparency and oversight. Make donations and State contracts public. No contracts or appointments for direct or indirect donors that exceed a threshold level.
  • EDUCATION REFORM
    • Ohio must redirect educational dollars to early education.
    • Eliminate Common Core, Critical Race Theory, and other Liberal attacks on our students by saying NO and eliminating the federal funding that requires it.
    • Restore local control to Education by Dramatically reducing the State Department of Education
    • Promote and Encourage Vo-Tech Ed as early as middle school.
    • Overhaul Pledge 2
  • ELIMINATE MEDICAID EXPANSION
    • Medicaid was established for the elderly, indigent, handicap and children. That is where the Medicaid program needs to be spending its dollars.
    • Ohio must roll back Medicaid Expansion, which is unsustainable, and make sure the funds we have are used only for the elderly, Indigent, handicapped and children.
    • Medicaid is taking up almost 50% of our state budget.
  • STATE PENSION REFORM
    • Today someone could work in the State Legislature for 25 years making $65,000 per year and retire to take an appointment to a State Department Job for $ 160,000 per year for five years (currently 3 years prior).
    • Their retirement pension will be based solely on the five years at $160,000 per year, not the 25 years $65,000.
  • CAPITALIZE ON OHIO’S QUALITY OF LIFE ASSETS
    • Lake Fronts, Riverfronts, National Parks, and amenities.
    • Ohio can be a destination for travelers and residents to spend vacation and tourism dollars.
    • Airports on the Lake and Abandoned Properties on rivers turned into quality of life assets.
  • OHIO MUST DECENTRALIZE STATE ASSETS THAT ARE IN COLUMBUS
    • Columbus has grown and prospered because it is a City with two large government institutions, The Ohio State University and the State of Ohio’s government.
    • It is time many of these State institutions are decentralized and distributed throughout the State. Every job that can be redistributed to many of our other cities brings economic stability to that city along with an influx in families and economic activity.
  • OHIO MUST CAPITALIZE ON OUR ENERGY ASSETS
    • Ohio should be an energy State, leveraging the vast oil and gas energy resources with which we have been blessed.
  • RESTORE THE AMERICAN DREAM IN OHIO
    • Create a culture for entrepreneurship.
    • Promote business diversity across the state.
    • Keep our young people in the State, working and raising a family.
    • Keep our Retirees in Ohio.
  • ELIMINATE “JOBS OHIO”
    • Jobs Ohio is a non-Governmental organization that is funded by liquor sales. It was intended to be a private organization to help with economic development. Given the organization’s track record, losing 6,200 jobs in 2019 has shown that the organization is woefully ineffective.
    • The overhead that this organization pays its staff and directors, in excess of 1.5 million dollars annually, could be better allocated by the state. Jobs Ohio has become a political slush fund for appointees of the Governor and Lt. Governor who often direct dollars to pet projects and to bolster their own political coffers. Jobs Ohio has become the poster child of “Pay for Play” in Ohio.

Campaign website

Renacci's campaign website stated the following:

“

PROTECT LIFE AT EVERY STAGE

Guided by faith, Jim Renacci knows every life is a gift that must be protected at every stage.

Jim Renacci is a pro-life leader who has proudly earned a 100% Right to Life voting record. Ohio families can count on Jim to continue fighting for the unborn as our next U.S. Senator.

Jim Renacci will be the fighter those with disabilities and those suffering from the opioid epidemic need in their corner. We can and should be doing more to end the opioid epidemic in America – especially in Ohio. While serving our families in Congress, Jim led the fight to tackle the crisis, forming an opioid addiction advisory board comprised of recovering addicts, medical professionals and law enforcement officers who are working together to help craft effective solutions.

In the United States Senate, Jim Renacci will continue his unyielding campaign to rid our communities of this crisis and advance policies that help ensures access to treatment and foster the hope and economic opportunity that is so often missing from the lives of those plagued by addiction.

CRACK DOWN ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

As our next Senator, Jim Renacci will remain relentless in his pursuit to address and resolve this urgent and critical issue facing our nation.

Jim Renacci strongly opposes sanctuary cities, as they pose a clear and present danger to our community. Jim will focus on securing the border, working with our president to advance the construction of a wall.

Jim Renacci knows the only way we are going to end illegal immigration is by cutting off the magnets that drive migrants to break into our country. That includes instituting a nationwide E-Verify system, making businesses check their employees are legally allowed to work in our country. Jim will support a merit-based immigration system, to bring the best and brightest from around the world together as they work towards one common goal - strengthening our country.

Jim Renacci has a proven record of cracking down on immigration. To impose stricter penalties on deported felons who re-enter the United States, Jim co-sponsored and voted for Kate’s Law. Jim co-sponsored and voted in support of the No Sanctuary for Criminals Act that holds cities accountable if they fail to follow federal law.

DEFEND OUR SECOND AMENDMENT

Jim Renacci has been endorsed by Ohioans for Concealed Carry and the NRA time and time again.

Jim Renacci is a co-sponsor of legislation to ensure the validity of any state-issued concealed carry license or permit in any other state that allows concealed carry. We do not lose our First Amendment Rights when we travel across state lines, why should we lose our Second Amendment Rights?

With an A Rating from the NRA, Ohio can count on Jim Renacci to defend our constitutional right to bear arms.

FIGHT FOR QUALITY HEALTH CARE

For Jim Renacci, “repeal and replace Obamacare” is more than just a slogan. Jim has seen families pay more for health insurance than they do on their mortgage. He has hugged parents who lost a child to prescription opioids. He has listened to members of our community with disabilities as they tell him about their struggle to find a doctor of their choice.

Enough is enough.

Jim Renacci will ensure we have the ability to make our own decisions when it comes to our healthcare. With Obamacare collapsing from coast to coast, it’s imperative we repeal and replace it with a system that truly works for our families.

Jim Renacci knows we must have an effective replacement, a market-based solution, which allows you to buy health insurance across state lines while driving down pharmaceutical costs.

Medicaid expansion is financially unsustainable and will force Ohio and other states to cut basic and vital state services simply to foot the bill for the program’s exploding costs. As our Senator, Jim will dedicate himself to replacing Obamacare with a patient-centric, market-based system driven by competition and defined by choice, affordability, and access to quality care.

SPARK THE ECONOMY

In 2017, Jim Renacci proudly fought for and helped craft the tax reform legislation that will deliver badly needed tax relief to middle-income families and American businesses. That sweeping tax cut legislation reduced personal taxes on over 80% of Americans and has already allowed businesses across the country to grow and thrive. Thanks to reform, millions of Americans have received bonuses, increased benefits and raises.

As our next Senator, Jim Renacci will continue to promote a pro-growth agenda that leaves more money in the pockets of hard-working Americans and business owners.

While we live in a global economy, unfair trade deals have given foreign trading partners a massive advantage while countless American jobs vanished, particularly in places like our state, which has been hit hard by job and population decline.

Jim Renacci knows we must renegotiate these trade deals. Jim has been proud to stand with President Trump has he seeks to advance an America First agenda.

Too often in the past, trade agreements have placed unfair barriers in the way of U.S. companies looking to sell their goods and services abroad. Trade is vital to our interest, but it must be done fairly and not at the expense of American workers and their families. Jim Renacci will fight to ensure that any trade agreement that comes before the U.S. Senate contains the protections necessary to open foreign markets and give our companies a fair chance to compete in a truly free market.

PROVIDE TOP-NOTCH EDUCATION

Education is the foundation for success. If we want our children to enter the workforce or pursue a higher education, we need them to be prepared.

Ohio needs to make sure higher education is about the students, not professors and administrators. We need to work with education experts and officials to solve the “4 PM – 8 AM Problem,” so our children are ready to learn.

Jim Renacci will not forget about the children living in dysfunctional homes racked by violence, drug and alcohol abuse, and other “strikes” that make it harder for them to tackle their school day. With so many public colleges and universities scattered across our state, Jim will make sure these places serve the purposes for which they were started – educating our children.

The U.S. Department of Education should focus its time and money on serving as a neutral data collector for the states. By gathering data on outcomes, spending, and other key education metrics for public, private, parochial and charter schools, the fifty states can see what is working and what is not working. This will allow each state to compare and compete to get the best outcomes for our kids at the most efficient cost per pupil.

Jim Renacci will be a champion for our students, Jim will fight to get education funding for our schools, making it possible for school districts to make the right decisions when it comes to curriculum, testing, and teacher evaluations, without interference or mandates from bureaucrats in Washington.

Personal Gain Index

Congressional Personal Gain Index graphic.png
See also: Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress)

The Personal Gain Index (U.S. Congress) is a two-part measurement that illustrates the extent to which members of the U.S. Congress have prospered during their tenure as public servants.
It consists of two different metrics:

PGI: Change in net worth

See also: Changes in Net Worth of U.S. Senators and Representatives (Personal Gain Index) and Net worth of United States Senators and Representatives
Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Renacci's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $31,338,760 to $41,930,701. That averages to $36,634,730.50, which is higher than the average net worth of Republican House members in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Renacci ranked as the 18th most wealthy representative in 2012.[112] Between 2009 and 2012, Renacci's calculated net worth[113] increased by an average of 7 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[114]

Jim Renacci Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2009$30,429,696
2012$36,634,730
Growth from 2009 to 2012:20%
Average annual growth:7%[115]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[116]

The data used to calculate changes in net worth may include changes resulting from assets gained through marriage, inheritance, changes in family estates and/or trusts, changes in family business ownership, and many other variables unrelated to a member's behavior in Congress.

PGI: Donation Concentration Metric

See also: The Donation Concentration Metric (U.S. Congress Personal Gain Index)

Filings required by the Federal Election Commission report on the industries that give to each candidate. Using campaign filings and information calculated by OpenSecrets.org, Ballotpedia calculated the percentage of donations by industry received by each incumbent over the course of his or her career (or 1989 and later, if elected prior to 1988). Renacci received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Leadership PACs industry.

From 2009-2014, 22.27 percent of Renacci's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[117]
