QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
To save a mother's life.
Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.
Strongly Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
What is your position on the minimum wage?
The minimum wage is not a wage for people to be able to live and support families. The minimum wage is a wage for entry level jobs. A job for students to get minor job experience.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
The world economic forum came up with this, so they along with tyrannical governments can control the populations. ESG should never be used as any criteria for public investments or to determine qualification for business loans.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
NONE
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
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. They should have to compete in the open market. Consumers should be given choices on how much they want to pay for certain medical procedures. Procedures that are not life threatening. Telehealth should be more widely used. This helps doctors keep health cost down and saves the consumer money as well.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
There shouldn't be any. After the Covid-19 vaccine debacle how can anyone trust any vaccines or the pharmaceutical company behind the vaccine. The government knowingly forced thousands of people to take it without any knowledge that it would work.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
China is the number one threat to America. China continues to infiltrate our government, our elections and our colleges. They control almost all of the production of all essential products like medications and electronic components.
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
It's very important. They are one of our only allies in the middle east. We can trust them on their intelligence sources and information. This information helps secure and protect the world.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
The United States should have our military at the border securing it. Force anyone trying to enter back into Mexico. We should not allow anyone in our country illegally period. We currently have terrorist entering into our country everyday with the help of the federal government.
EDUCATION
The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child through programs which protect parents' freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Strongly Agree
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Strongly Agree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I'm a Christian. Jesus Christ is my savior.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes racism is a threat because the rhetoric from political leaders fuels tensions. Constant media coverage amplifies the impact. Our schools and universities are allowing and perpetuating racism against the Jewish people by allowing antisemitism in classrooms and campuses.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.
Strongly Agree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.
C
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Natural gas, oil and nuclear are the best sources for electricity.

Safety of the students is the priority.
