October 29th, 2022

Join America's Roundtable Radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy in a conversation with John Gibbs, Republican candidate for the 3rd Congressional District in Michigan and former Assistant Secretary at the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Before government service, John used his complete fluency in Japanese to serve in Christian missions in Japan, where he helped churches reach the vulnerable using technology, and deployed homeless outreach strategies for Japanese churches. Prior to his service in Japan, John worked as a software developer in Silicon Valley on cybersecurity products at Symantec, and on the first version of the iPhone at Apple.

He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Stanford University, and a Master in Public Administration from the Harvard University Kennedy School of Government.

Topics:

— The State of America's Economy in the Heartland
— Compounding America's Energy Crisis: Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer Moves to Shut Down Enbridge Line 5

Threatening Energy Security
— U.S. Southern Border Crisis Impacting the Midwest
— Michigan's Draconian Covid Restrictions and Learning Loss for School Children
— Solutions: The Rule of Law, Market-Oriented Reforms and Economic Liberty

According to a published report:

"Enbridge has warned that a Line 5 shutdown would threaten Michigan’s energy security, particularly for Upper Peninsula residents who rely upon propane from Line 5 to heat their homes. The company has also said a Line 5 shutdown would increase fuel prices and harm Southeast Michigan and Ohio refineries that process oil from Line 5. But during a brief shutdown in June, gas prices did not noticeably rise."

Bio John Gibbs

With more than 20 years of experience in the public, private, and non-profit sectors, John was appointed by President Trump as Acting Assistant Secretary for Community Planning and Development at HUD under Secretary Ben Carson, where he oversaw an annual budget of $8 billion to help fight homelessness and expand economic opportunity.

Gibbs is a Michigan native, the grandson of Black sharecroppers from the deep south, and the first in his family to attend college - a life journey which exemplifies the opportunity our great nation provides. He holds a B.S. in Computer Science from Stanford University, and a Master in Public Administration from the Harvard University Kennedy School of Government.
