Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I’m a Black American man born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Reparations for Black American Descendants of US Chattel Slavery
• Ending the Citizens United Decision with an Amendment to the US Constitution.
• Addressing Mass Insecurities attenuating the success of the American People. End the Military industrial Complex

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Justice reform, Reparations, Housing all American Citizens, establishing Jobs Guarantee, ending the Military Industrial Complex!

Is there a book, essay, film, or something else you would recommend to someone who wants to understand your political philosophy?

I’ll write one and you and can see!

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Deeply committed to addressing the structural harm as opposed to the superficial or apparent.

What do you believe are the core responsibilities for someone elected to this office?

Must be willing to provide the uncomfortable truths to the people that have provided them right to govern. The inability of leaders to address the deeply flawed infrastructures whether it be political, social, economic, technological, etc., it bolsters the negative impact on society.

What legacy would you like to leave?

Justice for Black Americans, ending the MIC, providing immense policy to address the insecurities of the American people.

What do you perceive to be the United States' greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

Ending the military industrial complex influence over our nation that if unchecked will ensure the escalation of tensions abroad with the monetary gain as its motivation.

I will not be complicit in appropriating dollars to further international turmoil and will work diligently to bolster diplomatic relations abroad.

It’s never too late to stop a War. It is however too late to do nothing.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

I support Federal term limits

What qualities does the U.S. Senate possess that makes it unique as an institution?

Confirming Appointments to Federal positions by the Executive.

Ratification of Treaties

Jury in the cases of Federal Impeachment trials

The institution itself maintains 2 Senators which represent the entirety of their state as opposed to proportional representations of individual districts in a given state (House of Representatives).

Do you believe that it’s beneficial for senators to have previous experience in government or politics?

It is not a necessity for the Senator to be a current or previous office holder, but for the Senator to exercise sound judgement in the discharge of their duties. An individual that maintains the understanding of leading their state and providing effective public policy to promote prosperity for their constituents, American Citizens, and attenuates conflicts abroad due to the attenuation of the Military Industrial Complex.

What do you think of the filibuster?

The filibuster has been a parliamentarian tool that enables white supremacy to oppose useful policy. My first policy to pass after dismantling it will be Reparations for Black American Descendants of US Chattel Slavery. Regardless of the political party of the incoming president, the intention will be that this justice must pass.

What kind of relationships would you build with other senators?

I will work with others to pass critical legislation.

Do you believe that compromise is necessary or desirable for policymaking?

Comprises are the necessary actions and or activities to achieve tranquility amongst society. Compromises are not however securing the demise or negative impact on their constituents. If the bridge connects the people to harm, burn the bridge down then.

How should the U.S. Senate use its investigative powers?

Widely to address US consumers across various industries & expanding legal mechanisms to penalize corporations for labor violations, etc .

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

Ohio Green Party

What criteria would you apply when deciding whether to confirm presidential appointees to their Cabinet?

as Senator the American people will observe as scrutinize said appointees.

What are your views on financial transparency and government accountability?

As Senator, I recognize that transparency and government accountability is imperative as it reduces the likelihood of potential corruption. This will vastly expand the efficiency of our government in providing critical products and or goods for the American people.

By virtue the import of establishing an Amendment to address the Citizens United Decision is fundamentally the protection of the American Democracy. The 2 party duopoly are controlled factions by the corporations & Defense industries. The sheer volume of dollars being impressed into the democratic process impedes on the common man to address their government. This imbalance is manufactured and must be systemically dismantled.

I will implement policy oriented in incorporating AI + machine learning to assist greatly in addressing corruption of government and improving existing mechanisms. I will be the best leader to transition our nation into the future as a Millennial who understands where our nation could truly achieve when we remove those that purposes are to siphon critical resources away from their constituents.

Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

My name is Tariq Shabazz. I was born and raised in the inner-city of Cleveland Ohio. As an adolescent I have witnessed an immense number of atrocities that ranged from illegal drug distribution, gang activity, to gun violence. Throughout this time period it sparked the fire of aspirations to have a life in public service.

I joined the United States Navy in 2014 as a Aviation Electronics Technician. In my tenure I have been awarded 2 Navy Marine Corps Achievement Medals; 1 Good Conduct medal, 1 Sailor of the Year and received an honorable discharge in September 2019. I have dedicated my life to creating public policy that will benefit Americans that have suffered for far too long.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• The Education system needs to truly create equal opportunity as envisioned. Financial literacy must be taught to all students to ensure that every student thrives. Preparation for adulthood is the next chapter in the US Education System.
• Economic opportunity must be extended to all people of this great nation. The stagnation has resulted in low socioeconomic status communities never recovering. It is imperative that policy is enacted that is conducive to people owning their communities.
• Social injustices depletes the faith in the system that has been created. Privatized prisons and detention centers establishes the building blocks for injustices. The United States holds 5% of the world's population, yet holds 25% of those incarcerated. The disparities amongst those that have been imprisoned are alarming and change must occur now.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

The United States has a fundamental issue in regards to the inner-cities. No longer will it be acceptable that a child grows in a neighborhood that fears walking outside. Social injustices extend far beyond those who are incriminated unjustly, but also those that are raised in environments that are chaotic to the growth of the youth. It is the Duty of the government to ensure that every individual has the equal opportunity to thrive versus solely surviving. There are apparent democratic deficits within the current state of the nation and policy must be implemented that truly encompasses those that have been forgotten.

Who do you look up to? Whose example would you like to follow, and why?

I look up to the possibility of creating longstanding policy that is dedicated to the people of America.

What characteristics or principles are most important for an elected official?

Ethics are truly important to maintain. One must be guided by the people and never compromise their integrity.

What qualities do you possess that you believe would make you a successful officeholder?

I resonate well with the people and have the willingness to create policies that are dedicated to the equal opportunity for all.

What legacy would you like to leave?

Improved education system that establishes a just system that all students are taught how to thrive.

removing privatized prisons

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

When I was 15 years old, there was a verbal altercation between a young man and I. This incident led to him brandishing a firearm at me with the intent to murder me. I had truly recognize how short life could be and that i could be the very statistic that i read about every day in my community. I realized that this young man had been accustomed to the reality that he was not valued. This creates the view point that others do not matter either.

What was your very first job? How long did you have it?

My first job was working in my family's neighborhood store. This being said, it gave me a great smile to seeing so many people in my community. Black ownership within the inner-city illustrated that we could be in control of our own destinies.

What is your favorite book? Why?

the Dictator

If you could be any fictional character, who would you want to be?

Static Shock

What was the last song that got stuck in your head?

Waiting on the World to change

What is something that has been a struggle in your life?

Growing up in poverty stricken environments that are plagued with gun violence. I feared that i could not be successful at times.

What qualities does the U.S. House of Representatives possess that makes it unique as an institution?

The U.S. House has the ability to create policies on a federal level that will prescribe the resolutions that are desperately needed throughout the country.

Do you believe that it's beneficial for representatives to have previous experience in government or politics?

It is beneficial for representatives to be guided by the people and never become complacent.

What do you perceive to be the United States' greatest challenges as a nation over the next decade?

The Greatest challenge in America is recognizing the importance of securing equal opportunity throughout the country.

If you are not a current representative, are there certain committees that you would want to be a part of?

Armed Services committee, judicial

Do you believe that two years is the right term length for representatives?

I personally believe that two years creates the conflict of always campaigning.

What are your thoughts on term limits?

House of Reps should not hold a position longer than 6 terms which would equate to 12 years in office.

If you are not currently a member of your party’s leadership in the U.S. House of Representatives, would you be interested in joining the leadership? If so, in what role?

I would love to take the mantle in advocating for equal opportunity throughout the nation.

Is there a particular representative, past or present, whom you want to model yourself after?

No

Both sitting representatives and candidates for office hear many personal stories from the residents of their district. Is there a story that you’ve heard that you found particularly touching, memorable, or impactful?

I was told by an individual that he grew up during the 80's when the crack-cocain epidemic occurred. This being said, he stated he became addicted to the drug and lived a life that was not illustrious to his character. He said, that he had to fight himself to be the change he wanted to see.
