Matthew Heines for United States Senate "Enough is Enough" Press Release March 29, 2018


My name is Matthew Heines. I am an author as well as a teacher. I am announcing my candidacy for the United States Senate seat up for election in the First Congressional District in Washington State August and November. I am running as a New Republican. 

As a veteran and a teacher, I have spent a lifetime serving my country both here and overseas in some dangerous places. I refuse to let the current leadership in our country continue to turn our nation and our state into a dangerous place.

I am running as a New Republican, but really as an old one. I run as Abraham Lincoln once ran. I am a poor backwoods country type trying to save this nation from the ignorance and strife brought on by the media and the government. I have never been one to sit around and complain. I do something when I see something wrong. It’s why I am running for the U.S. Congress.

My campaign is a simple one. It is just twelve points to stop our skyrocketing debt and keep our children from inheriting a life of debt slavery in a security state where fear, violence and terror accompany them wherever they go. I won’t give any campaign speeches per se, rather, I would like to hear what people have to say about my twelve point plan.


1) Forbid US Government borrowing.

2) Legalize marijuana-end the war on drugs, poor whites, Hispanics and African Americans.

3) Use the profits from the sales of marijuana to cover the cost of tuition at public universities and trade schools.

4) Twenty dollar an hour minimum wage in companies with +500 employees and a guaranteed living wage for our workers instead of million dollar bonuses for CEO’s.

5) Immediate issuance of Labor Cards to undocumented workers, DACA residents.

6) Labor Cards are attached to an employer’s bank account for foreign workers to cover municipality, state and federal costs of education, social services, criminal activity etc. When the labor card is no longer valid, the employer will ensure the employee’s departure from the U.S.

7) With obvious exceptions, all U.S. Government business will be conducted in English. We have no need to pay an army of interpreters because of a lot of bad people making worse decisions for money.

8) Anyone responsible for hiring illegal aliens and creating dangers to our communities will receive a mandatory five-year prison sentence.
9) Permanent national immigration freeze until a national moratorium (vote) can be conducted on the immigration issue.
10) Incorporate Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana into African American controlled federal territories where African Americans can live free of white culture, pressures, corruption and influence. African Americans will design their own political, justice, learning systems, communities and societies based upon their own wants, needs and desires. Dr. King talked about the Promised Land. I believe it’s time we talk about what is justice and I believe giving the land that holds the bones of three hundred years of dead African American Saints to their grandchildren begins to address the topic of that justice.
11) File anti-trust lawsuits against media, cable, social media and tech firms whose business practices are predatory and who are discriminatory. Provide funding for alternative sites to the present social media, tech and media platforms.
12) Abolish affirmative action and government sponsored racism in hiring, education and in the conduct of government business.
It is my firm belief that if we implement these measures immediately, we will begin a journey that will take us to a better place, a better nation and a better world based upon enlightenment, tolerance, science and reason. It will help our children make decisions to study engineering not the history of pottery because they are afraid to fail. It will put the best and brightest at the front of our technological teams. It may take generations to change our thinking but we can be the new pioneers, can’t we?
If not, we for sure will be the old ones.
