QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
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
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
None.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Disagree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
“Separation of church and state” means the government should not control the Church or dictate matters of faith. It does not mean America was founded as a secular nation or that Christianity should be pushed out of public life. The United States was built on Christian principles, and those values shaped our laws, our culture, and our understanding of liberty. Our rights come from God, not government. Christianity should inform our moral framework without government silencing it.
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
C
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?
Israel is a key ally in the Middle East, and the United States has long cooperated with them on security and intelligence matters. But I believe in President Trump’s America First doctrine. That means our priority must always be the American people, our borders, and our national sovereignty. Strong alliances do not require endless taxpayer-funded aid, and U.S. foreign policy should be guided by what keeps America strong, secure, and independent first.
Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.
Strongly Agree
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
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.
Strongly Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
End taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal aliens and deport all illegals. Codify and expand spending cuts identified by DOGE and other oversight efforts. Impose strict transparency and auditing requirements on federal agencies. Ban members of Congress and senior federal officials from trading stocks.
IMMIGRATION
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Freeze all immigration to the United States for the foreseeable future.
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
DEFUND Sanctuary Cities.
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
