QUESTIONNAIRE*
RIGHT TO 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
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
To save the life of the mother.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What should be the relationship between the church and the state?
The Constitution forbids the government from the establishment of religion, or a particular religion. It does not ban religion from the public square. We must defend the ability to speak of God in public and defend religious freedom for all Americans.
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
I am a 26 year military veteran who went to war four times. We must have the strongest military in the world to deter aggression and defend U.S. interests around the world. We must provide everything our troops need to win our nation’s wars. I will never vote to put Americans in harm’s way without a clear and achievable mission. And I will always fight to bring our troops home quickly and safely when the job is done.
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
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
I am a four-time veteran of the Global War on Terrorism. We must use all instruments of American power, and not just the military, to monitor and counter terrorist threats as they emerge around the world.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I am opposed to vaccine mandates.
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)Tax-payer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be de-funded.
We should ensure coverage of pre-existing conditions, expand access to mental health and addiction services, and seek market-based reforms to control healthcare costs. I oppose "Medicare for All" and similar proposals that restrict individuals from choosing their own doctors and healthcare plans. I will protect the benefits earned by our senior citizens and support reforms in Medicaid and Medicare to keep those programs effective in helping the poor and the elderly.
ECONOMY
Redistribution of income is needed to lessen the gap between the wealthy and working classes.
Strongly Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
We cannot reduce inflation until we get federal spending under control. I support a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
We should never have circumstances where people pay a penalty when they decide to get married. We should provide incentives to individuals and businesses to repatriate assets from overseas and invest in the United States. We must cut taxes for small businesses.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
State and federal funds shall be denied to any public or private entity, such as a sanctuary city, that is not in compliance with immigration laws.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
The U.S. must have complete control over who, when, and how people enter our nation to live, visit, work, and learn. Legal immigration is a part of the American story and must conducted in an orderly fashion. Illegal immigration is a terrible problem that threatens our national security.
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?
The 2nd Amendment ensures the right to bear arms.
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree
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.
I will work to ensure the transition to alternative sources of energy takes place when people are ready, not by arbitrary government order. I will encourage domestic energy production and resist efforts to prematurely replace tried and true energy and transportation sources with unrealistic ideals. And I will oppose efforts by Washington to micromanage the nation’s energy and transportation infrastructure.
