2016

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

  • Job Creation and the Economy: As a small business owner, I understand what American job creators need: less interference and lower taxes. Over regulation has forced the private sector to divert resources toward dealing with excessive government intrusion instead of investing in their business and hiring more employees. At the same time, excessive taxes have stripped down the resources businesses need to pay their current employees. This double-edged sword cuts at the very heart of American prosperity.
  • Spending and Balancing The Budget: I support enacting a Balanced Budget Amendment. A Balanced Budget Amendment would prevent the federal government from spending outside its means. Families across West Michigan have to sit down and balance their budget. The State of Michigan has to pass a balanced budget every year; it’s commonsense that Washington should have to do the same.
  • Protecting the Sanctity of Life: The sanctity of life is close to my heart and dear to my family. Protecting life beginning with conception is a value that cannot be compromised and something that I will continue to fight for. This is something I stressed for 10 years as the Right to Life representative for my church in Zeeland and continue to stress to this day.
  • Agriculture: Agriculture is one of the strongest economic drivers in West Michigan. In fact, the impact of food and agriculture on Michigan’s economy is estimated at $91.4 billion, and accounts for nearly 1 in 4 jobs. The Second District is one of the most agriculturally diverse in Michigan and is a leader in livestock, poultry, pork, fruit, nursery, greenhouse, and floriculture production. I have consistently fought for the hard working farmers in the Second District, and will continue to support West Michigan farmers and growers.
  • 2nd Amendment: As a longtime gun-owner, I support the right of all law-abiding citizens to exercise their constitutional right to own firearms and use firearms for lawful purposes. I am an active member of various hunting clubs, endorsed by the NRA, and have been trained in using firearms safely.[158]
—Bill Huizenga's campaign website, https://huizengaforcongress.com/issues/

2012

The following are several issues that were outlined on Huizenga's campaign website.[159]

  • On Job Creation and the Economy

Excerpt: "It is not the government’s responsibility to create jobs. It is, however, the government’s responsibility to create a suitable environment for the private sector to succeed."[159]

  • On the Current Federal Debt Levels and a Balanced Budget Amendment

Excerpt: "Our nation is over $16 trillion dollars in debt. Not only is the total amount of debt incomprehensible, it’s unsustainable. I continue to support reining in government spending and enacting a Balanced Budget Amendment.[159]

  • Reforming the Tax Code

Excerpt: "I am a strong advocate of a Flat Tax system. Today’s tax system is an accounting disaster that limits investment, taxes death, and hampers business."[159]

  • On Reforming Social Security and Medicare

Excerpt: "Social Security is not sustainable without significant reform. No reforms or changes will affect anyone over the age of 55. Future benefits cannot be paid under current taxation levels."[159]

  • Sanctity of Life

Excerpt: "The sanctity of life is close to my heart and dear to my family. Protecting life beginning with conception is a value that cannot be compromised and something that I will continue to fight for as your voice in Washington, D.C.[159]

  • Immigration Reform

Excerpt: "I will continue to advocate for immigration reform that respects the rule of law, protects our borders, and does not provide amnesty. We should not reward those that have broken the law with citizenship."[159]

  • Healthcare

Excerpt: "While I remain fundamentally opposed to President Obama’s health care law, I stand ready to address the cost of health care through an incremental approach of common-sense solutions that puts patients, not Washington bureaucrats, in charge of their own health care decisions and allows employers the flexibility they require to provide coverage."[159]

  • On Protecting our Second Amendment Rights

Excerpt: "As a longtime gun-owner, I support the right of all law-abiding citizens to exercise their constitutional right to own firearms and use firearms for lawful purposes."[159]

  • Education

Excerpt: "Programs like No Child Left Behind and Race to the Top constitute an unwarranted and unhelpful intrusion into matters that the people of Michigan and other states can decide on their own. Only by returning the federal government to its constitutional role and expanding educational opportunities will we get our nation’s education system back on track."[159]

  • Environment

Excerpt: "As a member of the bipartisan Great Lakes Task Force, I continue to work closely with my Great Lakes colleagues to fight the introduction of non-native species."[159]

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

Net Worth Metric graphic.png

Based on congressional financial disclosure forms and calculations made available by OpenSecrets.org, Huizenga's net worth as of 2012 was estimated between $491,017 and $1,266,000. That averages to $878,508, which is lower than the average net worth of Republican representatives in 2012 of $7,614,097.96. Huizenga ranked as the 221st most wealthy representative in 2012.[160] Between 2004 and 2012, Huizenga's calculated net worth[161] increased by an average of 16 percent per year. Between 2004 and 2012, the average annual percentage increase for a member of Congress was 15.4 percent.[162]

Bill Huizenga Yearly Net Worth

2009$598,774
2012$878,508
Growth from 2009 to 2012:47%

Comparatively, the American citizen experienced a median yearly decline in net worth of -0.94%.[164]

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). In the 113th Congress, Huizenga is the vice chair of the United States House of Representatives Committee on Financial Services's subcommittee on Monetary Policy and Trade. Huizenga received the most donations from individuals and PACs employed by the Insurance industry. He received the fourth and fifth most donations from the Commerical Banks and Securities & Invesment industries, respectively.

From 2009-2014, 33.87 percent of Huizenga's career contributions came from the top five industries as listed below.[165]
