OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
Strongly Agree
I support the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires health care providers to provide life-saving treatment for infants who survive an attempted abortion.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Only if the mother’s life is endangered.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Disagree
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
I would begin with foreign aid to other countries and then look at reducing entitlements to our citizens. I would also consider looking at our defense spending on foreign wars.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should not discriminate against individuals, organizations or small businesses because of their belief that marriage is only a union of one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with taxpayer or public funds.
Strongly Agree
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Yes
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
As written in our constitution, ”Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the exercise thereof. “ As Thomas Jefferson said, “Religion is a matter which lies solely between Man & his God, that he owes account to none other for his faith or his worship”.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
I would promote and encourage this.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Strongly Agree
IMMIGRATION
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.
Strongly Agree
State and federal funds should be denied to any public or private entity, including but not limited to sanctuary cities, that are not in compliance with immigration laws.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Anyone that adheres to the laws of the United States.
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Disagree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Member of the Presbyterian Church. Married in the Catholic Church because of my wife’s religion where we also attend services. I believe in a Supreme Being.
ABOUT YOU
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?
Very Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
My website. My history as Chairman of the Republican Party in my county and all of the candidates I helped to get elected.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
My twenty years as an elected member of our local central committee. My seven years as county commissioner. My four years as Republican Party chairman. My thirty years of running my own businesses. Paying taxes since I was 16 years old has also educated me on how our government works and how it uses/misuses our tax dollars.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No.
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Having spent 30 years as a private business owner I understand what it takes to create a job, make a dollar of profit, and all of the taxes that come with this. I strongly believe in our U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights, our three branches of government with their separation of powers, and the American way of life. There are many things that make the United States different than other countries, however the two important ones I think of regularly is right as citizens for religious freedom and the right to bear arms.
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
I support the use of Sharia law as a basis for legislation and judicial decisions in the United States.
Strongly Disagree
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Mandatory minimum sentencing should be required and enforced for violent crimes.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The only restriction should be age and mental capacity. Mental capacity should not be determined by a judge but by a licensed professional in this field (i.e. I do not believe in Red Flag laws).
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Disagree
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Strongly Agree
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
In priority order, what three areas of legislation do you propose to author or sponsor if elected?
Creating economic development zones in the highest unemployment districts in the state. Protecting the unborn and second amendment rights. Working with farmers to reduce their taxes and protect lakes, streams and rivers from harmful field runoffs.
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes, it can be. People should have religious freedom as long as it doesn’t come before our county and its laws.
