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?

Life threatening situations like a tubal pregnancy.


ECONOMY

It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.

Strongly 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 prefer to make as small a cut as possible in the the core services which are legitimate functions of government and make deeper cuts in everything else.


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?

Freedom from government interference in religion.


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?

Requiring up-front medical cost transparency from insurers and all health care providers.


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?

Those who can contribute to our society without being a burden. Under certain limited circumstances we should accept our share of legitimate asylum seekers especially those fleeing religious persecution.


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.

I'm a sinner saved by the grace of God through his Son Jesus Christ. The chief purpose of man is to know God and to make Him known.


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.

Did not answer

What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?

My wife Brenda and I have been married 46 years and have raised two sons and six daughters. We have 8 grandchildren. I'm a retired public school teacher of 40 years. Over the past 42 years, our children have attended public school in Mid-Del schools and private school at Christian Heritage Academy but mostly they have been homeschooled. My youngest son is currently a senior at the high school where I taught.

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?

I'm a Pro Life, traditional values Republican teacher. The incumbent is also a teacher, but one whose voting record supports Democrat policy positions on abortion, immigration and gun control. I'm running to give voters a choice. My family and I have been actively involved in this community for 44 years. The other candidate in the primary is probably a good guy but just moved into the district from across town a few months before the deadline to be able to file for this office. I gave no answer on whether teachers should be able to carry guns because I believe that should be left up to local school boards.


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.

Agree


2ND AMENDMENT

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

Did not answer

What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?

Criminal background check.


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.

Disagree

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?

Reduce the excessive number of state superintendents from over 500 to a more reasonable number by consolidating the administrative functions of smaller districts (not consolidating schools). Require up front medical cost transparency from health care providers and insurers so consumers can make wise choices when deciding between providers, insurers and health cost sharing plans.

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

There is no excuse for racism but those who label everything racist to achieve political power seem to be more of a problem.
