OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"Another document that guides our American values is the Declaration of Independence. It states that individuals are “endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness”. Frank believes every life is worth protecting- including the life of an unborn child. From supporting legislation protecting unborn children to safeguarding our Second Amendment rights, Frank will always stand up for our conservative values".
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
Did not answer
I support the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires health care providers to provide life-saving treatment for infants who survive an attempted abortion.
Did not answer
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Did not answer
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"Oklahoma’s economy is strongest when taxes are low, businesses are able to thrive, and government gets out of the way. From voting for historic tax reform to cutting unnecessary regulatory red tape, Frank supports lowering taxes, reducing burdensome regulations, and increasing free and fair trade- guaranteeing more Oklahomans take home more money at the end of a long-day’s work. He knows what small business owners and family farmers really want is for the government to get out of the way and let them grow their business. Allowing our small businesses and family farms thrive not only creates jobs but it promises a brighter future for all of Oklahoma’s families".
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Did not answer
How would you guarantee Social Security benefits for future generations?
Did not answer
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Did not answer
Under what circumstances should taxpayers help pay off existing student loans?
Did not answer
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Did not answer
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Did not answer
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Did not answer
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Did not answer
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"Medicare-for-All would cost the American taxpayer at least $32 trillion, it would kick 158 million hard-working Americans off their current health insurance plan, and it would shutter rural hospitals across our country. Republicans – the party responsible for the Children’s Health Insurance Program, Medicare Part D, Medicare Advantage, and the original law that created protections for folks with pre-existing conditions – stand ready to help lower out-of-pocket costs for patients while expanding choices for the American people".
I support the elimination of private healthcare insurance.
Did not answer
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Did not answer
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"There is no greater role the federal government has than that of providing for our national defense. After nearly a decade of cuts by the previous administration, Congress must restore the strength of America’s military and provide our troops the tools they need to successfully complete their mission. We live in an increasingly dangerous world where our nation faces enemies that threaten our safety and security; which is why Frank supports a strong and fully capable U.S. military. Oklahoma’s Third District plays a critical role supporting America’s military. From Altus Air Force Base to Vance Air Force Base, Frank will always fight to make sure our District leads the nation in supporting the global superiority of our Air Force".
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of radical Islamic terrorism?
Did not answer
IMMIGRATION
I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"America’s immigration system is broken. While our nation prides itself as being a nation of immigrants, we are also a nation of laws. Frank supports President Trump and believes we must do more to secure the Southern border and provide more resources to our law enforcement and border patrol officials to keep our communities safe. Immigration reform also means modernizing America’s outdated immigration policies- prioritizing high-skilled entrepreneurs and streamlining agricultural worker programs- helping create a legal workforce that will bolster the American economy"
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) should be abolished.
Did not answer
State and federal funds should be denied to any public or private entity, including but not limited to sanctuary cities, that are not in compliance with immigration laws.
Did not answer
Employers should be required to use E-verify to confirm the eligibility of their employees to work in the United States.
Did not answer
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Did not answer
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Did not answer
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Did not answer
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Did not answer
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

Did not answer
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Did not answer
iVoterGuide Notes:
"The Second Amendment reads, “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed”, which is why Frank believes protecting the ability of law-abiding citizens to bear arms is a fundamental right."
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
