A Klein Administration would support the American family, placing a top priority on the reversal of the trend toward the destruction of the middle class family. Its direction and policies would include:

• policies that would discourage rather than encourage divorce;
• policies that would reduce the negative effects of financial hardship, anger, revenge, and child custody issues that encourage the destruction of the American family;
• introducing an EQUAL PHYSICAL CUSTODY ACT that would mandate states to enact a rebuttal presumption of joint physical custody in divorce;
• introducing the CHILD SUPPORT FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ACT, which would mandate child support recipients to file reports supported by documentation that child support payments were used for the child's direct benefit;
• policies that would restore middle class family affordability by reducing financial stress on family housing by eliminating low down payment mortgages, restoring middle class wage levels for blue collar workers by barring illegal workers, and by the strict enforcement of free trade agreements.
