I feel that market place and industries will determine what the appropriate minimum wage should be.

No

State investment policy should reflect requirements by investment managers to invest in a manner that provides for greatest pecuniary return on investment dollars. Non-pecuniary considerations for investment strategy need to be approved by the state before being implemented by any investment manager.

Religious liberty/religious freedom must be protected to allow all citizens the right to worship according to the dictates of their conscience. My take on this this question is whether or not government can or should restrict people from worshiping as congregations, and I would like to say never, but I do believe regardless of our religious belief, we cannot meet as a religious congregation with the intent of violating someone else's rights.

Disagree

I strongly support an individual or private business's right to not provide a service or request for service if it violates a religious belief. This gets difficult to enforce when an individual elects to work in the public/government sector where these conflicting services are allow by law and the person is expected to fill the requirement to provide these services as a governmental agency. Public agencies should try to accommodate personal beliefs, but that may not always be possible.

(C) most closely aligns with my view. However that is not the world we live in since the adoption by Congress of the Affordable Care Act which was upheld by the US Supreme Court. As a result of the two Supreme Court decisions we have a population in the state that can't afford health insurance, are not allowed to get insurance through the federal exchange, and don't qualify for Medicaid. Because of their circumstances there are not options, and because of this I support Medicaid Expansion.

I believe personally that vaccinations have improved the lives of mankind, but I respect those that don't feel some or any vaccinations should be required. This decision needs to be left for local school boards to make.

Strongly Agree

I agree, which is why I have supported the investment in our rare earth minerals, supported the restriction on property ownership, and feel strongly that our attempts to secure and protect Wyoming's interest need to be well vetted. We need to ensure we accomplish the goal to protect against inappropriate Chinese influence without negatively impacting the state's ability to interact with other foreign governments.

Yes, I believe it is. They are our strongest ally in the Middle East and their security protects our security.

I believe in immigration, but it has to be within existing immigration guidelines governed by law. I think our current process has flaws and warrants changes, but until that happens we need to comply with existing law. allowing for non compliance or illegal immigration dilutes the pressure on Congress to make the appropriate changes, and punishes those who are try to comply with our legal requirements.

Disagree

This statement as it stands alone sounds great, but our historic system, supreme courts cases and our state's constitution impacts need to be brought into this conversation. Nothing currently in state statutes or in the constitution interferes with a parents right to homeschool, or choose a private school. Our constitution prohibits the appropriations of state funds directly to private entities, such as private, or private religious schools.

Agree

This statement suggest a child has a right that to my knowledge is not adopted in statute nor is it in the constitution, however I believe society has a responsibility have age appropriate materials in public and school libraries, but determining what is age appropriate is a loose term and is determined by local jurisdictions. The bigger responsibility to ensure young people are not in possession of inappropriate books falls on the parents or guardian.

Strongly Agree

I believe this statement is taking liberty when is suggests children are the "most vulnerable members of society". We have a lot of vulnerable populations i.e. infants, people with developmental/intellectual disabilities, vulnerable adults affected with dementia, to say one is more vulnerable than the other is just an opinion. All those who are vulnerable should be protected from harm in whatever form that might be.

Strongly Agree

I am a big supporter of parental rights and believe a parent has the right to know what challenges, and behaviors their child in involved in, but there are always exceptions, and in this case if a parent is making decisions for a child that is detrimental to the child's health, safety, and protection, the child has the right to expect intervention to give them protection.

Disagree

I am not sure what all services this question is referring to, but I am opposed to funding gender transition surgeries for those under the age of 18. But I do not oppose counseling services to those to are identifying as a sex different than they are at birth. I think gender transitioning is a personal elective, and as such shouldn't be funded with state general funds.

Disagree

Religions have the have the right to determine what constitutes marriage as it relates to their beliefs and I don't believe government has the right to require them to alter their beliefs to conform to a governmental expectation. Government does have the right to determine the requirements of a civil union taking place outside a religious jurisdiction to insure the compliance with local law and to protect the rights of the parties that would typically apply.

I believe in God the Eternal Father, in his son Jesus Christ, and in the Holy Ghost. I also claim the privilege of of worshipping God according to dictates of my own conscience and feel all men are allowed the same privilege to worship how, where, or what they may.

Disagree

Strongly Disagree

Racism, as long as it exists is a threat to the well being of society. We need to be vigilant in our efforts to protect the rights of all citizens. We as a society are also guilty of mistakenly finding a way to assume the worst of comments and actions thinking they have racist motives when no racial offense is intended. We are too thin skinned.

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree

None of these reflect my view. I believe the adoption of environmental laws and regulation must be done based on accurate data that has been reviewed, verified and accepted by states and industry. States and industry are able to adjust to the impacts of new laws and regulations that have been gone through this type of process.

1. Provide for the protection of the citizens i.e. defense/police 2. Provide a justice system to redress the grievance of our citizens. 3. Provide a safety net for those who are not able to take care of themselves. 4. Protect the rights granted by our constitutions

Conservative

Strongly Disagree

I have always supported 2nd amendment rights and believe one of the keys required to protect this right is accountability in the event the right is abused.
