OTHER INFORMATION

QUESTIONNAIRE

OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

Congress should repeal the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).

Strongly Agree

Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.

Strongly Agree

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.

Agree

The U.S. military should wait for militant Islamic groups to directly threaten our national security on our shores, rather than eradicate them now wherever they may be worldwide.

Strongly Disagree

The United States must maintain a nuclear arsenal that is safe, reliable, modern and numerically superior to those of potential adversaries.

Strongly Agree

I support legislation such as the First Amendment Defense Act (FADA) that would prohibit discrimination against individuals, organizations and small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.

Strongly Agree

The federal government should establish Common Core as a nationwide academic standard for high school graduation.

Strongly Disagree

I oppose the resettlement of Syrian refugees into the U.S. without proper vetting.

Strongly Agree

Current regulations on domestic oil exploration and drilling are more restrictive than are necessary.

Strongly Agree

It is the government’s responsibility to be sure everyone has health care and a livable income.

Strongly Disagree

Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which permitted our system of limited government.

Strongly Agree

More restrictive gun control laws are needed to protect public safety.

Strongly Disagree

The founders established pure democracy in the Constitution because they believed that it is the best form of government to ensure the safety and equitable treatment of all citizens.

Disagree

Free enterprise and the right to private property turn mankind's natural self-interest into the most productive economic system there is.

Strongly Agree

Governments should pay to develop wind and solar energy solutions until they are economically feasible.

Disagree

Religious liberty is at risk in the United States.

Strongly Agree

Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with public funds.

Agree

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Disagree

The United States should help defend Israel from attack by its enemies.

Strongly Agree

Planned Parenthood should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments.

Agree

Marijuana should be legalized and regulated like tobacco and alcohol.

Strongly Disagree

Islamic law (Sharia) does not pose a threat to the United States and its Constitution.

Strongly Disagree

Based on the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, please arrange the following entities, starting with the highest source of authority, and continue the list in descending order of authority, skipping any that do not apply: Academia, Congress, Constitution, God, Industry, Media, Professional Sports, Supreme Court, Voters.

"Give back to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's." The Constitution is the law of the land. The Constitution gives voters the power to elect representatives that have the authority to create laws.

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

It shouldn't be, except to protect the life of the mother or in the case of rape and incest.

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

That passage is interpreted as history shows that people are more likely to put up with unbearable evil, than they are to correct the problem. The separation of powers in the Constitution is designed to protect U.S. citizens from any over-bearing branch of government, or any bearable evil that encroaches upon them.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Christian, and I attend the Highland Park Community Church, where I have taken a very active role. I believe in the in fulfilling The five biblical purposes of discipleship, evangelism, worship, service and fellowship. I believe religious liberty needs to be defended, and I have a strong voting record of doing so.

Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?

Very Conservative

Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.

I believe in a balanced budget amendment. I support a one bill, one subject amendment. I fought for and helped pass legislation to exempt religious camps from property taxes. I voted to prohibit politicians from using campaign funds for personal use. I want to eliminate lifetime pensions and automatic pay increases for Members of Congress. I think we should live within our means. We need to scale back harmful regulations and support coal and gas and other energy producers, creating good, high paying private sector jobs for our citizens.

Additional comment from candidate:

I am running for Congress because Washington is broken, and we need someone who will take on the establishment, balance the budget, and fight for coal and gas and other energy producers against people in Washington who are threatening Wyoming’s way of life. We need to reform Washington. I will fight to reform Washington by eliminating lifetime pensions and automatic pay increases for members of Congress. I will fight to reform lobbying by forcing paid lobbyists to disclose how much they are being paid and who their clients are. I will help build a national coalition of like-minded members and use my invaluable experience as a legislature to scale back some of the Obama Administration’s most destructive regulations. We are looking at the destruction of the Wyoming energy industry altogether, and I will fight to ensure that we continue to produce energy that creates jobs and a robust economy.
