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.

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.

What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?

I would stop so much spending on Climate Change. It’s going to take us years to get this country back to normal because of this virus. So a Green New Deal is a dead deal. All the Pork that being wasted needs a good Audit and re-allocate those pork spending and move the money to where it’s really needed.


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.

Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.

The 1st Amendment gives us the right of freedom to speech and the freedom to choose any religion we want.

How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?

We need to allow 3rd party insurance for competitive pricing. While there are a few people in society that want free Healthcare for all, it just isn’t possible, the Nation can not afford it.


NATIONAL SECURITY

The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.

Strongly Agree

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.

Anyone should be allowed as long as they do it legally.

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

Yes, it is. It does nothing but help to divide our country more. Constantly calling each other a racist does nothing but diminishes the word. Sometimes people will pull the race card when are losing the battle and they have nothing left to argue, so they throw their hands up and say the issues are racist. We need to start using some common sense!
