Most candidates for Congress talk about what they’d like to do. David Kloiber is showing you exactly what he plans to introduce.
Today, the Kloiber campaign released full proposed legislation for all three of its core platform priorities — healthcare affordability, housing, and living wages. Each bill includes complete legislative text and a policy brief explaining how it works in plain language.
The TRIP Act
Taxpayer Return on Investment in Pharmaceuticals
The TRIP Act requires fair pricing on drugs developed with taxpayer-funded research. If public money helped create it, the public shouldn’t be gouged to buy it. The bill caps prices at 200% of production cost for drugs where taxpayers funded more than half the R&D, cuts out pharmacy benefit manager middlemen, and requires insurers to pass at least 80% of savings directly to families through lower premiums.

The Building Homes, Building Communities Act
The Building Homes, Building Communities Act uses the tax code to steer private investment toward the housing Americans actually need. Developers who build affordable and workforce housing get reduced capital gains rates as low as 5%. It reforms 1031 exchanges, creates a $250 million revolving loan fund for small developers, and, critically, lets communities decide what kind of housing they need instead of leaving it to Washington.

The Rewarding Work and Wages Act
The Rewarding Work and Wages Act takes a different approach to the wage problem. Rather than forcing small businesses to absorb costs they can’t afford, it rewards employers who invest in their workers. Companies that pay a living wage and provide real benefits receive tax credits tiered by size, with small businesses getting the most generous treatment. A three-year phase-in, free technical support from the SBA, and federal contracting preferences for living-wage employers make it easier to do the right thing. Companies that keep pushing poverty wages onto taxpayers get nothing.

These aren’t talking points. They’re bills — drafted, detailed, and ready to be introduced on Day One. You can read every word.
David believes voters deserve to know exactly what they’re voting for. Not slogans. Not someday. The actual plan.
