QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
None
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
Everyone deserves fair pay, but wage mandates can hurt non-profits, small businesses, and jobs. I support growing wages through a strong economy, job creation, and workforce training—not one-size-fits-all mandates.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
1) Strengthening audits and oversight of agencies to ensure accountability. 2)Eliminating duplication of programs to reduce unnecessary spending. 3) Increasing transparency so taxpayers can clearly see how funds are used. 4) Modernizing government systems through technology to improve efficiency and reduce costs. 5) Implementing performance-based budgeting so funding is tied to results and ineffective programs are reduced or eliminated.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
I believe separation of church and state is rooted in protecting religious freedom, not removing faith from public life. The First Amendment prevents the government from establishing a national religion while protecting the free exercise of religion. Historically, leaders like Thomas Jefferson described a “wall of separation” to ensure government does not control religion. This principle protects both individual conscience and limits government overreach.
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) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
I believe the U.S. relationship with Israel is important for security and shared democratic values. Israel is a key ally in counterterrorism and intelligence sharing in a volatile region. Cooperation also advances technology, cybersecurity, medicine, and agriculture. As Scripture says, “those who bless Israel will be blessed, and those who curse Israel will be cursed” (Genesis 12:3), which I believe underscores supporting Israel.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.
Strongly Agree
Policies should strengthen—not replace—parental authority, ensuring families are respected, informed, and empowered to make the best choices for their children’s future.
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly Agree
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
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Neutral
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
My spiritual beliefs are centered on one God, the Creator of all things, who is eternal, loving, and present in my life. I believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, sent to bring salvation and restore our relationship with God through His life, death, and resurrection. I trust Him as my Savior and Lord. I believe the Bible is the infallible Word of God and the guide for how I should live, teaching truth, love, forgiveness, and righteousness. My faith shapes my values, decisions, and hope, and I seek to honor God through prayer, worship, and how I treat others each day.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
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
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Strongly Disagree
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Fossil fuels are the most reliable energy source for meeting growing electricity demand. They provide steady, on-demand power regardless of weather, helping keep the grid stable and affordable while supporting economic growth and energy security.
ABOUT YOU
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?
Conservative
I am conservative because I believe in limited government, personal responsibility, and the United States Constitution as written. For 250 years, it has protected liberty through separation of powers, checks and balances, and clear limits on federal authority. I believe rights are not granted by government but protected by it. The Constitution’s original framework ensures stability, accountability, and freedom for individuals, families, and states.
Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.
No
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.
No
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
Goal of the criminal justice system is to protect society, uphold the rule of law, ensure fair and equal justice, hold offenders accountable, deter crime, support victims, and promote rehabilitation when appropriate.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Agree
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation online because kids are especially vulnerable to grooming, manipulation, and abuse in digital spaces. Laws, enforcement, and platform accountability are needed to deter predators and respond quickly when harm occurs. At the same time, parents have a vital role in supervising online use, setting boundaries, using safety tools, and teaching children how to recognize and report unsafe behavior.
Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
From a strong Second Amendment view, the Constitution protects the right of law-abiding citizens to keep and bear arms, and that right should not be infringed. Restrictions should focus on felons and violent offenders who are already prohibited from owning firearms, along with stopping illegal gun trafficking. Law-abiding citizens should not be punished for the actions of criminals. Public safety and constitutional liberty can and should coexist.
