OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Elective? Very small window for medically necessary only.
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.
Agree
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.
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.
Stop funding the government using Continuing Resolutions; Fund each department through separate spending bills; Use Zero-Base Budgeting; DOGE every department and agency
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
No state-established religion.
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.
I would like to go straight to "D", but we are likely going to have to work thru "C" for some years as some as we phase it out.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
Personal privacy should prevail.
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.

D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.

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

Yes. Hopefully the ties to Israel do not fray, as those with Europe have.
Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.
Strongly Agree

Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
I like the policy reviews currently under way: Work visas being tightened up, academic visas being shortened, ending the lottery visa program.

Strongly Disagree

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