Agree to audit military spending - I suspect that price gouging by military contractors raises the military budget by at least 25%

Enforce the Johnson Amendment - Any 501(c)(3) organizations, which includes charities and churches, that engages in any political campaign activity will lose their tax exempt status. That alone will bring in billions. We have never enforced this and I wonder why?
