Issues

American response in Syria

See also: United States involvement in Syria

Larson released a statement regarding the situation in Syria on August 28, 2013.[170] In the press release he said, "Before the United States commits troops on the ground or decides on the use of force in Syria the President needs to convene Congress and make the case to the American people...Assad's assault on humanity deserves a response from the world community not just the United States. The Administration who has been making the case to the world community must make that case to Congress."[170]

Following President Barack Obama's address on Syria on September 10, 2013, Larson released another statement.[171]

"I commend President Barack Obama for agreeing to an international discussion on the proposal to collect and destroy chemical weapons in Syria. These talks will strengthen the global response to Syria and advance the diplomatic approach that I and many others in Connecticut's first district are calling for...Many Americans agree that our best path forward begins with a diplomatic and international answer to the problems in Syria. After hearing from my constituents, I know this is the correct approach in response to the vile chemical attacks experienced by the Syrian people."[171]

The following issues were listed on Larson's campaign website. For a full list of campaign themes, click here.

“
  • Student Debt & National Service : In the vision of President Kennedy, John is proposing a new path forward. Americans who commit to public service should receive relief from student loan debt. Whether it’s the Peace Corps, Teach for America, Vista, Americorps, the armed services, or any number of community-based organizations, the result is the same: relief from the mounting burden of student loans and the thanks of a grateful nation.
  • Jobs: Every American deserves the simple dignity that comes from having a job. While our economy has made great strides since the recession of 2008 and unemployment continues to fall, many Americans still struggle to find work.
  • Gun Violence Prevention: Connecticut knows too well the tragedy and horror of gun violence. From the shocking murders at Sandy Hook Elementary to the rash of shootings in Hartford and other urban areas, we continue to grieve the loss of too many innocent lives.
  • Social Security: Social Security is the bedrock program for retirement, disability, and survivor’s benefits. Over two-thirds of retirees depend on Social Security for most of their income, but talk in Washington turns too often to slashing benefits or hiking the retirement age.
  • Foreign Policy: Nothing is more important than preserving the safety of Americans. In the wake of horrific tragedies overseas and within our own borders, John Larson has called for taking a closer look at our nation’s security measures and strengthening our relationships with our allies.

[185]

”
—John Larson's campaign website, http://larsonforcongress.org/issues/

2014

Larson's campaign website listed the following issues:[186]

  • Education
Excerpt: "Education is the most important predictor of individual financial success. It’s also the key to America’s long-term success in a 21st-century economy. Yet too many American families worry that they won’t be able to afford to invest in the opportunity higher education provides. It doesn’t have to be that way."
  • Economy & Small Business
Excerpt: "John’s top priority is to rebuild our economy and invest in a strong economic foundation for our future that works for all Americans. After eight years of failed leadership under the Bush Administration, our country was at a crisis point. The Great Recession threw our economy into a tailspin – losing 800,000 jobs a month at the end of 2008 – while Bush-era policies made it harder for the middle class and those seeking to join it to achieve the American dream,"
  • Government Accountability
Excerpt: "In 2010, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of allowing corporations to spend unlimited secret money in elections. Since then, we’ve seen the rise of Super PACs and unprecedented amounts of corporate money in elections. John is working to change that by leading the effort to ensure that candidates are responsive to the American people – not to Washington lobbyists and special interests."
  • Veterans & Military Families
Excerpt: "America’s veterans deserve the same level of commitment that they have given to our country. John voted to increase funding for veterans’ medical care, provide a pay-raise for our troops, support military family housing programs, and restore the promise of a full college education for Iraq and Afghanistan veterans."
  • Energy & Environment
Excerpt: "Our dependence on foreign oil puts our national security and economy at risk. We see this risk each time instability in the Middle East hits our pocketbooks at the pump. We need to invest in an energy future that’s abundant, affordable and American, while finding ways to keep energy prices down as we transition."

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, Larson's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $-57,956 and $420,999. That averages to $181,521, which is lower than the average net worth of Democratic representatives in 2012 of $5,700,168.36. Larson ranked as the 353rd most wealthy representative in 2012.[187] Between 2004 and 2012, Larson's calculated net worth[188] decreased by an average of 4 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[189]

John Larson Yearly Net Worth
YearAverage Net Worth
2004$270,437
2012$181,521
Growth from 2004 to 2012:−33%
Average annual growth:−4%[190]
Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[191]

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). Larson received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Insurance industry.

From 1997-2014, 29.36 percent of Larson's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[192]
