Jon Buchwald:

Restoring American Values to government and peace of mind to you

My commitment to YOU, the voter:

SMART Government

A Framework for Effective Public Service

Modern government should deliver services that meet the SMART criteria: Scalable, Measurable, Accountable, Responsible, and Transparent. This framework ensures that federal programs serve citizens effectively while using resources wisely.

Scalable

Measurable

Accountable

Responsible

Transparent

Broadly applicable federal policies that don’t cater to special interests, with all else delegated locally or to the private sector.

Taxpayers get the best value when the federal government focuses on what it does best, while empowering others to do what they do best.

Every government service must deliver measurable outcomes.

If a program isn’t delivering the expected results to the taxpayers, either fix it or replace it. No excuses.

Leaders must be accountable to both government and citizens for service excellence.

Clear lines of responsibility ensure that someone answers for both successes and failures.

Tax dollars should be used effectively, not emotionally.

Even urgent priorities like border security deserve thoughtful execution, not chaos.

Citizens deserve clarity on what their government is doing.

Open updates, real metrics, and honest communication keep power in public hands.

Ready to find common ground for the common good?

We’re excited to have you join our movement to restore American Values to Washington and peace of mind to you.
