Strongly Agree

I support the Hyde Amendment. Allowing federal funds to go to abortion providers forces the American taxpayer to become complicit in the murdering of the unborn.

Strongly Disagree

I believe in the intrinsic value of human life, the sovereignty of God and the need for health care workers to do no harm. Life is sacred from conception to natural death.

I am an abolitionist and believe all abortion is murder. The right to life is not a freedom granted to us by man or the government. On the contrary, the United States was founded on the belief that the laws of nature and God endowed us with certain inherent and inalienable rights, the foremost being the right to life. As congressman, I will be a voice for the voiceless and fight for every unborn child’s right to life. I’m eager to join the fight and work alongside my colleagues in Congress to transform our culture of death into a culture that welcomes life.

Strongly Disagree

Redistribution wealth is not necessary. What is necessary is for able bodied Americans to get back to work. More welfare recipients need to be moved off the welfare rolls. Welfare was never meant to serve as a way of life or as a generational “right” for the self-proclaimed impoverished. While we must remain empathic to those “truly” in need, we need to run from the most recent Biden Administrations notions of “welfare replacing work” for able bodied individuals.

Strongly Agree

The Republican Party of late has enjoyed using the words “fiscal responsibility” as a tagline but are far from following through on this once economic premise of the Republican platform as most recently indicated by the passage of past and current Biden infrastructure bills with the help of Republicans. When I am in Washington, I will fight to decrease government spending and I welcome accountability by the CD8 constituency on this issue.

I will • Oppose all efforts to increase the marginal income tax rates for individuals and/or businesses • Oppose any net reduction or elimination of reductions and credits unless matched dollar for dollar by further reducing tax rates.

Strongly Agree

The United States Constitution guarantees Freedom of Religion, not from religion. To many of the founders, the “freedom of religion” imbued within the fabric of our founding was one of two extremes; the freedom to faithfully practice the Christian religion and pursue the virtue of the Christian faith, or the freedom from the individual to practice one’s liberty outside of the state.However, I believe that free exercise lies somewhere in the middle of these nuanced approaches.

Strongly Disagree

To force individuals/businesses to provide services that go against their personal moral or religious beliefs is a direct assault on religious liberty guaranteed in the Constitution. Practically speaking, the free exercise of religion covers the conscientious objection of a cake-maker to make a gay wedding cake, a religious small business to cover birth control in health insurance policies, and the ability of a Christian to deny service to those acting incongruent to their Christian convictions

Our nation is, by the very virtue of its founding, an intrinsically Christian nation. This nation must be the guarantor of the freedom of conscience given to all humans by God, allowing the expression of religion and exercise thereof. However, in all cases where so-called freedom of conscience violates the observable, objective moral truths that transcend distinction and constitute the Judeo-Christian ethic, the Constitution, the voters, and the government must err on the side of favoritism to the Christian religion.

The federal government does not hold an enumerated power under the US Constitution to mandate vaccinations, as this is considered a police power reserved to the various States, or the people under the 10th Amendment. In that circumstance, the federal government holds no authority over the citizens of the various States absent statutory authority under the spending clause or commerce clause of the US Constitution. Under the principles of federalism, the States that consider exercising this police power should do so only in the rarest of circumstances in extreme cases of emergency with excessive mortality rates that are considered true public health emergencies. Regardless, whether mandatory vaccinations are considered from a government, private employer, or school, religious and medical liberty should be recognized in all cases, consistent with the US Constitution and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and reasonable accommodations should be respected as a foundational element of our free civil society.

C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. Congress has undermined the 10th amendment by nefariously using the spending clause to undermine the sovereignty of the states by creating large government programs that make the states beholden to the federal government. I believe in cutting the bureaucracy out of healthcare and increasing consumer choice.

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. I have served 13 years active duty in the United States Navy and continue to serve my country in the Navy Select Reserves in the Navy Security Law Unit. We should only intervene in foreign wars when it is in the direct interest of the National Security of the United States, otherwise we should be hands off.

Strongly Disagree

Israel is our strongest ally in the Middle East. I whole heartedly support Israel as she defends her right to exist as a sovereign nation. In congress I will continue to promote placing considerable importance on the maintenance of a close and supportive relationship between the United States and Israel. God’s Word contains a clear and absolute, timeless guarantee relative to the Abrahamic Promise of Genesis 12:3, “And I will bless those who bless you, and the one who curses you I will curse.”

Strongly Agree

The CCP is on the rise around the globe. The CCP ideals of marxism and socialism has infiltrated our public education system, our media, and many of our government institutions.

As a veteran of Iraq and Afghanistan that has worked on some of the most complex national security issues this nation has faced regarding Islamic terrorism, I have firsthand knowledge of the threat caused by fanatical zealots. The United States must use all elements of national power, diplomacy, information warfare, military power, and economic authority to combat this threat whether it stems from state actors or non-state actors. While we should not intervene with large scale operations, a whole of government approach to secure our border, pressure nations that harbor Islamic terrorists, and to designate such groups as Foreign Terrorists Organizations under Title 8 U.S.C. § 1189, without regard for political correctness, will provide the tools necessary to eliminate this threat.

Strongly Agree

This is no "Trumps Wall", it is the people's wall. We must continue building the wall to defend our citizenry from the criminal element and terrorists in the name of National Defense.

Strongly Agree

I whole heartedly support LEGAL immigration and am against any type of amnesty for those who have entered our sovereign nation illegally.

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Disagree

Critical Race Theory is a contagion that has grown pervasive in our schools, places of employment and military. CRT is rooted in Marxism and is a threat to our communities and families. CRT seeks to perpetuate new power structures based on identity politics and radicalization of our youth and military by imposing unwarranted feelings of guilt, self-loathing, and reverse racism toward their fellow man.

Praying and scripture is very important to me, and it guides my decision making process, but also allows me to deal with unexpected surprises, disappointments, or victories. God is in control.God, family, and country. I believe integrity and character matter. As a Naval Oicer, trust, honor, and loyalty are key to my personal value system. I believe in honoring your family, and respecting yourself. I believe in being virtuous, and leading by example in all matters. I believe when making a mistake, you own it with extreme accountability, and learn from mistakes.

Strongly Disagree

We must regain voter trust. The right to vote is at the most basic of our civil rights, while secure and fair elections are the cornerstone by which that civil right rests. Every American citizen should be allowed to feel confident in knowing that their vote counts. Voter fraud seeks to silence the voice of the citizenry.

I will encouraging every state to adopt Voter I.D. legislation, encourage the increased protections for critical election infrastructure (polling places, storage facilities.) and safeguarding electoral management systems.

Only when weaponized; weaponized race warfare is a divide and conquer tenant used by the left as a blueprint for social transformation of American civil society.

Strongly Agree

A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy.

Very Conservative

I am a staunch constitutional and unapologetic republican. I am consistent and honest. I have executive leadership experience and exhibit daily the necessary organizational skills, and communication skills needed to adequately represent the constituency of CD8. I have the fortitude and courage to speak up for what it right and to pursue these right outcomes in defense of liberty.

NO

I would like to introduce meaningful and impactful legislation on border security, USC Title 8 reform,, and requiring remittance for the transfer of wealth from illegal aliens to foreign countries. I would like to investigate the relationship between the democrat party and social media platforms that stifle the free speech of Americans at the behest of the government.

Strongly Agree

I BACK THE BLUE! Officers and public officials need qualified immunity to carry out their jobs. Public officials, and particularly police officers, perform vital tasks that may require split-second decisions in stressful circumstances. Taking away qualified immunity could lead to officers being hesitant to act when it is most needed. Officers do not have absolute immunity, and they can be held liable when they violate a clearly established constitutional right.

Very limited, only when convicted of a violent felony, and there should be a mechanism to gain back rights for self-protection and hunting in a realistic and streamlined manner. Law abiding citizens should be able to own, possess, and use firearms with no government restrictions.
