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.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Life is sacred.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Did not answer
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Did not answer
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Did not answer
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Did not answer
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The government shall not promote or interfere with an individual's rights to worship or practice and shall not promote or inhibit any religion
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Did not answer
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
The issue of adequate health coverage for all is difficult but can be resolved by first working on the problem without the posturing of special interest groups. Solutions exist including allowing qualified medical care providers the ability to treat Missouri residents. Prohibiting a doctor from providing care because she may have been licensed in another state while serving she or her spouse was serving in the military does not help Missouri residents. Not allowing multiple insurance carriers into the state to compete and force down premiums is also a good common sense approach.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Did not answer
EDUCATION
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Did not answer
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.
Did not answer
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe in God and do my best to follow his commandments. The love of Jesus is special and his teachings give me hope everyday.
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.
I believe the role of government needs to be limited to what is necessary and should provide what is spelled out in the constitution. In Missouri the State should provide for the safe roads and bridges, the State should curtail unnecessary rules and regulations that stymie job growth and job creation. The State has an obligation to fund k-12 education and guarantee a free public education to each of it citizens as set forth in the Missouri Constitution. The state should create an atmosphere where individuals are free to exercise their rights and liberty.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I have over 30 years experience in evaluating information, thinking critically and understanding points of view. I have spent those years sharpening my skills to find solutions and to how to work with people.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
never
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
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?
There are no additional restrictions that are needed to protect public safety. Better enforcement of existing laws to prevent the use of weapons by criminals or those who are mentally unstable would provide for public safety.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Did not answer
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Did not answer
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Did not answer
In priority order, what three areas of legislation do you propose to author or sponsor if elected?
1. Job creation and development 2. Protecting the sanctity of life 3. Making government accountable and more transparent
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes. Bias needs to be addressed to allow the economy to grow and for liberty and justice to flourish. Too often the message to address bias is corrupted or hi-jacked by a few who have nothing in mind by criminal activity. Whether it is causing injury to individuals or property to inhibit others from earning a living or providing security for their families. The criminal elements within the lawful groups of citizens demonstrating and advancing their arguments peacefully are and remain a risk to domestic security.
