OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
I am 100% Pro-Life.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive 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
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
I believe the tax code should be amended to reduce burdensome taxes on hard working Virginians and business owners.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
I would cut non-essential spending by eliminating unnecessary administrative overhead across government agencies, cancel harmful initiatives like DEI, and reduce social programs to encourage personal responsibility instead of government reliance.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
I do not believe the government should have the power to close a church under any circumstance. I’ve brought legislation forward in the House of Delegates championing this initiative.
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 – I believe Medicare should be available to our retirees who’ve spent many years contributing to make our economy thrive. Medicaid should exist on a limited basis for those who truly need it. I support the Medicaid work requirement recently passed by Congress.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I do not believe any government institution or employer should be allowed to require vaccinations.
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
The US must prioritize a strong national security by strengthening our military, securing our borders, supporting our allies, and cutting off financial resources fueling terrorism across the Middle East.
I support the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) movement to pressure Israel to withdraw from occupied territories, remove the separation barrier in the West Bank, allow full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and promote the rights of Palestinian refugees.
Strongly Disagree
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Individuals who desire to assimilate into our society, contribute to our economy, and do not pose a threat to our national security should have an opportunity to LEGALLY immigrate to the United States.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.
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.
As a Christian, my family and I have a strong faith in the Lord and that faith guides my values and principles.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
Reinstating the requirement to provide a photo ID when voting. Cutting back on the current 45 days of early voting and reinstate the prior Absentee voter laws that required a valid reason to vote early.
EQUALITY
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Americans of all races live, work, and thrive peacefully every day. I believe the real threat of racism exists when it is used as a tool to divide us and as an excuse for violence.
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost.
A – Stricter environmental regulations are driving our economy backwards and placing an unnecessary burden on business owners and hard working tax payers.
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Strongly Agree
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
Government should have a limited role to protect its people and their freedoms by maintaining law and order. The government is there to serve the people, not control them.
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and religious liberty, which of the following best describes you overall?

What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
In Richmond, I’ll continue to fight for the people of the 47th District by standing up for our conservative values and traditional principals.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.
Strongly Agree
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Strongly Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
I believe the 2nd Amendment is clear in that all law-abiding citizens have the right to keep and bear arms.
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
