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


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

“Separation of church and state” means government should not establish or control religion, while fully protecting every individual’s right to freely practice their faith. It’s about preventing government interference in religion—not removing faith from public life.

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

I disagree. Individuals and businesses should not be forced by the government to violate their sincerely held moral or religious beliefs, while also ensuring laws are applied fairly and respectfully to everyone.


NATIONAL SECURITY

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Strongly Agree

I agree. The Chinese Communist Party presents serious military, cybersecurity, intellectual property, and economic threats, and the United States must respond with strength, vigilance, and policies that protect our national and economic security.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

Yes. The U.S.–Israel relationship is important because Israel is a key democratic ally in a critical region, a strong partner in intelligence and national security, and a driver of innovation and economic cooperation that benefits both countries.


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) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary.

The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

Strongly Disagree

I do not support this. Government should protect patient privacy and avoid centralized databases of individuals’ medical conditions.


ECONOMY

What is your position on the minimum wage?

I support a strong economy where wages rise through job growth, skills, and productivity—not government mandates that can reduce hiring and hurt small businesses. I’m open to practical, targeted approaches that help workers earn more without limiting

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Free enterprise and the right to private property are foundational to a strong, productive economy—they drive investment, job creation, and opportunity. I believe government should protect these principles while creating an environment where businesses can grow and workers can succeed.

List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.

Cut red tape that slows rural growth End wasteful spending and special-interest carveouts Increase transparency in local spending Control government growth Give rural voters a voice


IMMIGRATION

I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.

Strongly Disagree

I do not support sanctuary cities. Laws should be enforced consistently, and local governments should cooperate with federal authorities to ensure public safety and uphold the rule of law.


EDUCATION

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Strongly Agree

I support returning education decisions to states and local communities, where leaders, parents, and teachers are closest to students and can better meet their needs.

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree

I agree. Foreign governments should not be funding American education, as it raises concerns about influence, security, and transparency.

VALUES

Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.

Strongly Agree

Parents have a fundamental right and responsibility to direct their child’s health and education, and government should respect and support that role.

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.

Strongly Agree

I believe children should be protected and not pushed into irreversible decisions at a young age, and parents should be closely involved in any decisions affecting their child’s health and well-being.

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
