QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Only exception is life of the mother
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
The government shouldn't increase minimum wage as this should be left to the private sector.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
Cut red tape and burdensome bureaucracy. Permitting reform needed in the energy industry to expedite permits but also ensure proper protections for landowners and public safety. Hire and promote state employees based on performance merit and not just based on years of service.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
It means that the government should not dictate what religion that people have to follow and that everyone has the right to worship as they choose.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
HEALTHCARE
What most closely matches your view on healthcare: A) Healthcare for all should be guaranteed and funded by the government with no private healthcare option. (includes "universal healthcare," "medicare for all," etc.) B) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options. C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. D) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
C
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes it is very important. Israel is a strategic partner and one of our closest allies. The Bible also says in Genesis 12:3 that God will bless those who bless Abraham (and his descendants, Israel) and curse those who curse them.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.

VALUES

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly Agree
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.

Strongly Agree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Strongly Disagree
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Natural Gas is the most abundant and economical form of supply for the growing electricity demand. Our abundant natural gas reserves allows us to be energy independent which is important for national security purposes and for economic development.
ABOUT YOU
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?
Very Conservative

No
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
It should punish criminals with proper justice and be a deterrent for others that may be considering criminal behavior.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
I am a huge supporter of our 2nd Amendment and co-author of Oklahoma's Consitutional Carry legislation that passed into law. I think that the more people that carry responsibly make our communities and state/nation safer. The more gun regulations we have the more dangerous our country becomes because the criminals do not obey our regulations anyways.
