The Committee to Elect Matt Shea is a political organization based in Spokane, Washington. It operates as a campaign committee with a minimal staff and maintains a website at voteshea2010.com. The entity is associated with Matt Shea's campaign and reflects the policy positions linked to that effort. The organization's stated positions emphasize reducing taxes and shrinking government to expand individual freedom, arguing that wealth is created by people and the private sector rather than by the state. It frames tax revenue as derived from the private sector and proposes evaluating legislation with three tests: necessity, private-sector efficiency and job creation, and funding from existing revenues rather than new taxes. It supports measures that shrink government and promote private-sector growth within a free-enterprise framework as a driver of jobs and prosperity, while seeking to limit government involvement in health care decisions to protect patient choice and reduce costs.
