==Middle East==
{{:Carly Fiorina (Middle East)}}
===Would call Iran on first day of office, call off nuke deal===
*"My second call will be to the Supreme Leader of Iran. He might not take the call, but he will get the message. I will tell him: new deal. Unless and until Iran opens itself to full and unfettered inspections of all nuclear and military facilities, we are going to make it very hard for Iran to move money around the global financial system." (CFWFP)
===Familiar with Middle Eastern leaders===
*Fiorina said, ""I know Bibi Netanyahu," and "I know King Abdullah of Jordan," as a way to critique the Obama Administration's policies in the Middle East. (OTI)
*Told Hillary Clinton to "Please, name an accomplishment," arguing that traveling the world doesn't count as one. Essentially, Fiorina was arguing that a long political resume doesn't necessarily mean a candidate is qualified--and suggesting that her short one shouldn't disqualify her. (OTI)
 
===Calls for more arms to Middle East===
*"The Egyptians are asking us to share intelligence, we are not, I will. The Kurds have asked us to arm them for three years, we are not, I would. The Egyptians, the Saudis, the Kuwaitis, the Bahrainis, the Emirati, the Kurds--all of these understand ISIS is their fight, but they must see leadership support and resolve from the United States of America. We have the strongest military on the face of the planet, and everyone has to know it." (RD4)
==Trade==

===Against TPP===
*Carly Fiorina said she supports free trade, but didn't want President Barack Obama to have the congressional green light to finalize a massive Pacific Rim deal. (MLN)
*Said of the TPP: "There’s a whole bunch of stuff in there that can only be described as crony capitalism, special giveaways to certain industries,” adding the agreement is “a mess.”" (MLN)
===Favors bilateral agreements===
Fiorina favors bilateral trade agreements over trade pacts because “bilateral agreements are always more effective. We have more leverage.” (MLN)
==Immigration==
{{:Carly Fiorina (Immigration)}}
===Secure border===
*Says securing border "will take money, manpower, and technology—but most of all it will take political will." (CFWI)
*Supports Heritage Foundation [http://www.heritage.org/research/reports/2013/06/advancing-the-immigration-nation-heritages-positive-path-to-immigration-and-border-security-reform plan], which would "support the National Guard and Coast Guard, invest in infrastructure and the right technology, and encourage federal-state-local cooperation." (CFWI)
===Fix legal immigration system===
*Wants to reform broken visa system (CFWI)
*Wants an upgraded employer verification system (CFWI)
===Will not grant amnesty to those who are in the United States illegally===
*"Those who cut the line and broke our laws as their first act entering this country have foregone that opportunity." (CFWI)
==Environmental==
{{:Carly Fiorina (Environmental)}}
===Reinstste the Keystone XL Pipeline===*This would "ensure that the United States is the global energy powerhouse of the 21st century." (CFWEn)===Repeal regulations on fracking=Entrepreneurship and Innovation==*These limit the "ability to be energy independent by regulating drilling on federal lands." (CFWEn)===Deregulate EPA=== *The Environmental Protection Agency needs to "roll back" regulations, said {{:Carly Fiorina at a town hall meeting. "The regulations that the EPA is rolling out now will destroy livelihoods. They will increase the cost of energy," she said. "They will destroy industries." (PTS)*Fiorina believes the EPA is standing in the way of affordable Entrepreneurship and reliable electricity. (PTSInnovation)}}
