Agree

Taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund abortion providers. I support directing public funds toward comprehensive healthcare services that do not include abortion—such as prenatal care, maternal health, adoption support, and community health clinics that respect life while meeting women’s medical needs. Taxpayers should not be compelled to subsidize procedures that many Texans morally oppose, and the state can meet public health goals without funding abortion providers.

Elective abortion should be limited and not treated as routine birth control. Exceptions should be narrowly defined and include cases of rape, incest, serious threat to the life of the mother, or severe fetal abnormalities incompatible with life. Policy should also prioritize prevention, adoption, and support for mothers and families.

Agree

Human life is inherently valuable and deserving of legal protection from conception until natural death. This principle does not preclude lawful criminal penalties, including the death penalty, nor does it support euthanasia or assisted suicide. Government’s role is to protect innocent life—especially the unborn—while ensuring compassion, due process, and support for mothers and families.

Agree

Human embryos, regardless of how they are created, represent human life and should be protected from purposeful destruction. Ethical medical innovation should respect human dignity while supporting families and advancing life-affirming treatments that do not involve destroying embryos.

Agree

Federal law should be enforced as written. The Comstock Act remains on the books, and enforcing laws passed by Congress is a matter of the rule of law. If changes are needed, they should come through the legislative process—not selective enforcement or executive reinterpretation. Protecting unborn life and respecting constitutional separation of powers both require faithful enforcement of existing law.

I oppose a one-size-fits-all federal minimum wage. Wages should reflect local economies and job markets. Real wage growth comes from a strong economy, lower taxes, fewer regulations, and workforce training—not mandates.

Strongly Agree

Free enterprise and private property rights are foundational to economic growth, innovation, and individual freedom. When people can own property, invest, and build businesses without excessive government interference, communities prosper, jobs are created, and families have greater opportunity to succeed.

1. Enforce zero-based budgeting and performance audits. 2. Eliminate redundant and overlapping programs. 3. Reform procurement to stop no-bid contracts and cost overruns. 4. Reduce regulatory and bureaucratic bloat. 5. Crack down on fraud, waste, and abuse through stronger oversight and accountability.

Separation of church and state means the government may not establish or control a religion, while individuals are free to live out and express their faith. It does not require excluding religious beliefs from public life or policymaking. Faith and moral convictions have always informed our laws and civic culture.

Strongly Disagree

No one should be forced by the government to violate their sincerely held moral or religious beliefs. Freedom of conscience is a fundamental constitutional right, and a free society must respect it.

B. I support choice and competition in healthcare. A government-funded option should be available for those who want or need it, while preserving private insurance and patient choice. A one-size-fits-all system limits innovation and access and raises costs for families and taxpayers.

Strongly Disagree

The government should not maintain databases tracking individuals’ medical conditions to assess costs. This raises serious privacy, security, and civil liberty concerns. Healthcare decisions should prioritize patient care and confidentiality, not government surveillance or cost-based rationing.

Strongly Agree

As someone who is a multi-tour combat veteran and currently works in Cybersecurity, I can absolutely say that the Chinese Communist Party poses significant military, cyber, intellectual property, and economic threats to the United States. We must protect national security, defend critical infrastructure and data, counter IP theft, and reduce dangerous economic dependence on adversarial regimes.

Yes. Israel is a key U.S. ally and the only stable democracy in the Middle East. Our relationship strengthens regional security, counterterrorism efforts, intelligence sharing, and U.S. strategic interests while supporting shared values of democracy and the rule of law.

Strongly Disagree

Sanctuary cities undermine the rule of law and public safety by discouraging cooperation with law enforcement. Immigration laws should be enforced consistently, and communities should prioritize safety, accountability, and legal pathways to citizenship.

Strongly Agree

Education decisions are best made by states, local communities, parents, and educators—not federal bureaucracies. Eliminating the U.S. Department of Education would return control closer to families, reduce waste, and allow education policy to better reflect local needs and values.

Strongly Agree

American education should be free from foreign government influence. Allowing foreign funding risks national security, intellectual property, and curriculum integrity. Our schools should reflect American values and interests, not those of foreign governments.

Strongly Agree

Parents have the fundamental right and responsibility to direct their child’s health and education. Government should support—not replace—parental decision-making, while respecting families’ values and ensuring transparency and accountability in schools and healthcare.

Strongly Agree

Children deserve protection, not irreversible medical or social interventions they cannot fully understand or consent to. Decisions involving a child’s health and development should prioritize safety, parental involvement, and long-term well-being, not ideology.

Disagree

As a Christian, I believe marriage is sacred and ordained by God. At the same time, I believe the role of government is not to enforce religious doctrine but to protect individual liberty. In a free society, people must be allowed to make their own decisions about who they love, even when those choices differ from my personal faith beliefs.

Agree

I support allowing gambling with strong safeguards. It can generate tax revenue, create jobs, and people should be free to make their own choices. Personally, I only gamble with my life—through military service, combat, and skydiving—not my money, except long-term investing in the stock market.

I am a Christian, and my faith shapes my values of service, personal responsibility, compassion, and respect for life. I believe in loving others, protecting individual liberty, and allowing people of different beliefs to live freely—so long as everyone follows the rule of law.

Strongly Disagree

Voting is a fundamental right, and protecting its integrity is essential. Photo identification helps ensure elections are fair, secure, and trusted by the public, while still allowing states to provide free IDs and accessible voting options.

Strongly Disagree

Government policy should treat people as individuals, not assign benefits or penalties based on race. Addressing inequality should focus on equal opportunity, education, and economic growth—not race-based reparations that divide rather than unite.

Strongly Agree

Women’s sports and private spaces exist to ensure fairness, safety, and dignity based on biological sex. Allowing biological males into women’s sports or spaces undermines those protections. Policies should respect everyone’s humanity while preserving sex-based distinctions where they matter.

Disagree

Climate policy should be based on sound science, realistic timelines, and economic impacts. Alarmist claims and rushed mandates risk raising costs for families and hurting jobs. Innovation, market-driven solutions, and responsible stewardship—not urgent political overreach—are the best path forward.

Reliable baseload energy—especially natural gas and nuclear power—is essential to meet growing electricity demand. These sources provide consistent, scalable power, while renewables can supplement the grid as technology and storage improve. An all-of

Conservative

I consider myself conservative. I believe in limited government, fiscal responsibility, free enterprise, and strong national defense. I support the rule of law, parental rights, religious liberty, public safety, and election integrity. I also value individual liberty, personal responsibility, and federalism, and believe policy should be practical, constitutional, and focused on what works for families and communities.

No

No

The goal of the criminal justice system is to protect public safety, uphold the rule of law, and deliver fair and equal justice. It should hold offenders accountable, deter crime, and provide rehabilitation where appropriate, while safeguarding victims’ rights and ensuring due process.

Strongly Agree

Government has a duty to protect children from sexual exploitation online. This includes enforcing laws, supporting law enforcement, holding platforms accountable, and ensuring strong safeguards against abuse while respecting constitutional rights and parental involvement.

Strongly Agree

U.S. law must be based on the Constitution and the rule of law. No religious legal system—including Sharia law—should be incorporated into American courts or override constitutional rights, equal protection, or civil liberties.

The Second Amendment protects a fundamental individual right. Law-abiding citizens should not face new restrictions for exercising it. Public safety comes from enforcing existing laws and prosecuting violent criminals. Taxing, registering, or tracking firearms or accessories like suppressors treats a constitutional right as a privilege and is morally wrong.
