Key Features of our Campaign
It's time for our Governors to stop the U.S. Funding of Israel
According to TrackAIPAC roughly 75% of our members of Congress take money from the Israel lobby. So basically, the United States is bought and beholden to Israeli interests. It is time for the Governors to step forward and take our county back. To stop these endless wars for Israel.
As your gubernatorial team Lee and Keith will file a lawsuit against the United States to keep what is annually given to Israel (in Connecticut taxpayer money) here.
What Lee and Keith will do as your Governor and Lieutenant Governor to Cut Israel Loose
1. Prosecute American settlers who commit acts of violence in the West Bank. Issue arrest warrants.
2. Put out an arrest warrant for Mr. Netanyahu. He is a war criminal, and his 30 years of bloody reign of terror and chaos must end.
3. Just like Mayor Zohran Mandani we will revoke the adoption of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition and overturn any anti-BDS orders and initiatives. No law should dictate what we choose to purchase.
4. Exercise our standing as Governor and Lieutenant Governor to file a lawsuit on behalf of the people of Connecticut against the United States of American to keep with $75 million annually of Connecticut's money here - and not given to Israel.
5. All Connecticut candidates at every level, including Congressional, are prohibited from going on any of the Israeli indoctrination trips.
6. CT, unconscionably, gives Israel an additional $95 million annually in State of Israel bonds. As your Governor, Lee will divest all money from Israel.
Eliminate corrupt judges. Preliminary Disqualification is a right Connecticut citizens need.
7. More than 30 states grant their citizens the right to Preliminary Disqualification (sometimes called Pre-emptive Disqualification). This gives a litigant the right to ask a judge, at the beginning of a case, to step off a case. By statute, the judge will have no choice but to step aside. This cuts the knees out of the power-drunk predators in our system. Judges with many "step aside" requests will be subject to a hearing to determine fitness for office and fired. Firings will be encouraged to eliminate fiefdoms. Preliminary Disqualification will also extend to our federal judges. They get a job for life, but a litigant should still have the right to get out from under a predator or old nemesis.
Get the Rabbis out of our schools.
8. Overturn Public Act 18-24 (Senate Bill 452), officially named An Act Concerning the Inclusion of Holocaust and Genocide Education and Awareness in the Social Studies Curriculum. Signed into law by Governor Dannel Malloy on May 10, 2018. This is a violation of church and state.

The Dedicated Team and the Mission to Change the World
What are the core values of the campaign?
The Citizens for Lee Whitnum team are comprised of committed activists and experts dedicated to fostering genuine political change in Connecticut and the world. Lee Whitnum and Keith Denning are a dedicated, compatible, educated and highly functional team. They bring years of combined experience in political strategy, public policy, and grassroots organizing. The staff are here to support Lee Whitnum’s and Keith Denning's vision for a stronger, more responsive gubernatorial team. Together, Lee and Keith stand firm in our belief that their effective leadership can mushroom into a worldwide movement for change:
JUDICIARY:
Our goal is to bring our Judiciary into the 21st century. Instead of being penultimate to Rhode Island as the most corrupt state in the country, Connecticut can be the leader, even outpacing Alaska, as the judiciary that is the most squeaky clean, and corruption free.
When everything that matters is on the line: your home, your business, your future, the custody of your kids, you want an honest system. Additionally a higher ranking and Connecticut would attract more business. No one wants to invest in a state that is riddled with corruption.
ISRAEL:
Our plan is to sue the United States to get back the $75 million annually of Connecticut taxpayer money. We need it here to fuel our own people, not the country of Israel. We believe that if we are successful, the other governors will also file suit to get back their $75 million. Without U.S. funding Israel will have to behave - it will have to stop its endless expansion and killing, be content in its own borders, make restitution with its non-Jewish underclass. As a result, WWIII will be averted.
