OTHER INFORMATION
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
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
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I believe life begins at conception. Elective abortions should not be allowed or paid for by state or federal funds.
Does the federal government have a role to play in limiting abortion, and if so what federal steps and/or federal legislation would you support?
I believe that the abortion issue is a state's right issue. The federal government should not be involved except to protect parental rights when a minor child is being transported across state lines without parental consent.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The separation of church and state means that the government cannot encroach on our First Amendment freedom of religion and the practice of that religion. The government cannot set up one religion and force all Americans to practice that religion. Our nation is great, much in part due to the diversity of views held by the people. However, this separation of church and state does not mean that individuals holding religious or moral values must keep their values out of the public square.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
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.
C
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
The U.S. relationship with Israel is vitally important because they are our closest ally in the region. The mutually beneficial relationship promotes our shared values, security, and economic growth for the Middle East.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
The recruitment decline of the U.S. military is in large part due to weak leadership, mandatory vaccination, pushing the woke agenda, poor evacuation of Afghanistan, and media propaganda promoting anti-national pride/loyalty.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I do not believe any government agency should have the authority to mandate vaccination to an American citizen.
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
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
Stop and reverse runaway inflation by truly becoming energy-independent, ending/preventing never-ending wars, simplifying the tax code, bringing back manufacturing, securing our Southern border, and balancing our federal budget with strict oversight.
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Strongly Agree
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
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?
Immigration to the U.S. should only be allowed to those coming through the legal channels. Mass illegal border crossings should be stopped immediately.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Strongly Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
We have all the gun laws needed to protect public safety currently on the books. The gun laws currently on the books need to be enforced.
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
The Supreme Court should be reformed to include more seats.
Strongly Disagree
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?
Very Conservative
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The government's general purpose should be limited in scope while strictly adhering to our designed republic as prescribed by the United States Consitution.
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
VALUES
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
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a born-again, spirit-filled believer in the God of Israel as described in the Holy Scriptures. I believe the Lord God loves the world so much that he provided a way for our salvation through the innocent sacrifice of His one and only Son, Jesus the Christ. I believe we are to love the Lord with all our heart, mind, and soul and love our neighbor as ourselves.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
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
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?
The most used and reliable energy sources are natural gas at 31.8%, petroleum (crude oil and natural gas plant liquids) at 28%, coal at 17.8%, and renewable energy at 12.7%. The U.S. must return back to a policy of energy independence.
