Keith Langford was born into a U. S. Military family. He has lived in different parts of the United States, but has made Sacramento, California his home.
He met his wife in Sacramento County in the Spring of 2004, and they got married in 2005. They have been married for 16 years (going on 17 years).
He does have three beautiful girls. Their ages range from as old as 12 years-old to 6 years-old. All three of his girls were born at the Kaiser Permanente Hospital in Roseville, CA.
Just to let you know, Keith Langford is a person who works among you every day. He is a person you can count on to solve the problems that are currently going on in the area and in the nation. He is a person that lives among you and cares for you. He cares enough to be your representative in this upcoming election.
- Balance Budget – I believe we should have a balance budget to make sure that we have enough funds for programs that are important to the American people. The nation shouldn’t be spending more money than what this nation brings in every year. Plus, having a balance budget means that this nation doesn’t have to borrow money from other nations.
- Education - I believe that education should be govern by the states and not by the federal government. Therefore, we have the 10th Amendment, where the states have power to govern themselves under the U. S. Constitution. Education is a state right to be govern over, we as a people of these states do have rights to say what our children are being taught.
- Police (Law Enforcement) - We are a nation of law and order. We have police officers for a reason, and we need to help our police departments in upholding the law. Yes, there are some bad apples out there, but we shouldn’t stop supporting them because of it. We should try to understand why events happen the way they do.
Here is a list of my public and personal policies:
Education
Policing (Law Enforcement)
Abortion
Families
Energy & Gas Prices
School Shootings & Gun Violence
The only thing that comes to mind when it comes to this is that an elected politician has to understand that the people who put them into office is the politician's boss. So, when it comes to me, I will try to make sure that the people that sent me to Washington know that their voice will be heard.
I am willing to listen to the people who put me into office.
To list to the people that sent me to Washington. Not the people that are already there.
That I put the needs of the many over my own needs.
I use to working for Scandia Fun Center in Sacramento. I was there for about 2-3 years.
The ability to get past my disability.
At this point of time, I do not know.
No., I don't believe a person has to be experience. If a person wishes to run for office, let them.
I perceive our greatest challenge would have to be other great depression.
Armed Forces Committee
Budget - Education and Labor and/or Financial Services
Veteran's Affairs
Small Business
I think we should have term limits. We need to stop the carrier politicians, and allow other people to run for office.
Not at this time.
I believe compromising is a great way to get things done. But if you have a group of people that wishes not to work with you because of your political views, then what the whole point of getting anything done.
The power that the U. S. Constitution gives me if I make to Washington D. C.; would not be taken lightly. For I do understand that what ever bill that comes across my desk would be carefully read and understood. Before I make any vote on it.

Langford's campaign website stated the following:

Balance the Budget I believe we should have a balanced budget to make sure that we have enough funds for programs that are important to the American people. The nation shouldn’t be spending more money than what this nation brings in every year. Plus, having a balanced budget means that this nation doesn’t have to borrow money from other nations.
I believe that education should be governed by the states and not by the federal government. Therefore, we have the 10th Amendment, where the states have power to govern themselves under the Constitution. Education is a state right to be governed over; we as a people of these states do have the right to say what our children are being taught.
We are a nation of law and order. We have police officers for a reason, and we need to help our police departments in upholding the law. Yes, there are some bad apples out there, but we shouldn’t stop supporting them because of it. We should try to understand why events happen the way they do.
I am for the military, because we are a nation that helps the world. I know that we are willing to go anywhere within this planet of ours. I also believe that through strength there will be peace. Yes, we shouldn’t flex our muscles all the time, but we should let the world know that we will not go down without a good fight.
I believe that we should have a secure border. Because we shouldn’t let everyone and there brother think that they can come into this nation of ours without going through the proper way. We should make sure that the people that are coming into this nation does not have a police record that is longer than 5 pages. Or in other words, if these people have been deported back to where they came from, they shouldn’t be coming back to our nation to be re-deported back. Our Border Portal and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (or I. C. E.) have been dealing with this problem for far too long (under this current administration).
I am against the killing of unborn babies, even up to the day these precious little ones are born. Now, I do understand when an abortion is necessary, but to perform an abortion just to get rid of an unborn baby isn’t it. Now the only times it is necessary is when the young lady has been raped, got pregnant by a sibling, and/or in the case of the mother health. But even with the last one, in case of the mother’s health, the doctor should try to save both lives, not just the mothers. Because all lives should be saved and that All Lives Matter. Having an abortion law is a dumb idea, and that we should cherish all lives, not just the young ladies.
Even though this one is the sixth one down on the list, I know that families are one of the highest things on my mind. Families should help each other no matter what the problem is, and my next issue I have coming up will tell you that families should pull us all together, no matter what the situation is. A family is a part of God’s plan for you and for me. I want you to know that I love my wife and my three daughters. And I am glad that I am a part of their lives as they are a part of mine.[3] |
