Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

Life of the mother.

What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?

If men were angles we wouldn't need a government. Also separate and limited powers provides for more deliberation and slows the process of implementing our laws, this helps assure our legislation is not driven by pure emotions.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a life long practicing Catholic of St. Paul's Catholic Church. I believe in Jesus Christ and that we will all be judged by our actions in this world.

When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?

Conservative

Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.

Look at my State House voting record and the bills I have co-sponsored.

What is the best way to bring down unemployment?

More educational opportunities and insist that everyone on public assistance work for a charity or be in an educational program or both. Mandatory drug testing for everyone on a government program.

How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

Free clinics for those in poverty. Medicaid for the working poor who must have skin in the game by paying a monthly fee to be part of medicaid and have co-pays for drugs and doctor visits within their ability to pay. We must also promote healthcare cost transparency. All services and procedures should be posted on line by all doctors and hospitals

What role should government play in boosting the economy?

Lower taxes and limit regulations to the bare minimums.

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?

I have been a successful business man for over fourth years. I believe I have had a productive first term in the Ohio house of representatives. I have taken the opportunity to learn how our state government operates in order to to help me be an effective leader both now and in the future.
