Abortion (surgical or chemical) takes an innocent human life, regardless of the circumstances of conception. If a mother's life is in danger during early pregnancy, before a baby could live outside the womb, doctors should be permitted to perform a life-saving operation on the mother that may indirectly result in the death of the baby. Harm to the child is neither intended nor done directly, but an unwanted and often inevitable side effect of the treatment. I also oppose chemical abortion.

Choose not to answer

I oppose chemical abortion. Until it is no longer available, I support the use of chemical abortion drugs only under the direction of a medical doctor, with full informed consent of the possible side effects to the mother (aside from the termination of her baby's life).

Strongly Agree

Strongly Disagree

I deeply believe in the sanctity of life from conception to natural death. All life is precious. The elderly can be an emotional, physical, and financial burden on their caregivers, but this does not justify putting them to death, any more than you would kill a teenager or a toddler for the same reasons. A life is a life, no matter how small (or old, or dealing with mental disabilities).

None.

Strongly Disagree

Protection of religious liberty is one of the bedrocks of the founding of this nation and deserves protection. Requiring a person to violate their moral and religious beliefs is government overreach and contrary to the founding principles of this nation.

Strongly Agree

Yes. Israel is a strategic ally in the Middle East and one of the few democracies. We share intelligence and cooperate on security in a region where allies are crucial. We also share the challenges of terrorism, and robust economic exchanges in the areas of defense, technology, and trade.

C. The proper role of government is the protection of life, liberty and property. While as a society we must always care for the most vulnerable among us, in the early days of this nation that burden was shouldered by the community institutions and churches. Health-share options available and adopted by many citizens prove that complex insurance programs and federal and state programs are not the only answer to healthcare.

None. Medical treatment is between a patient and their physician and not the purview of government. Vaccinations must take into account the individual circumstances of each person and are not a one-size-fits all solution.

Strongly Agree

Minimum wage is an interference with market forces that should set wages.

No

ESG ratings are more important to financial fund managers than the individuals they often represent. Investments are designed for one thing - to generate profits for the investor. Public monies should be invested where a reasonable profit can be made on the investment, and not dictated by the ESG rating of an entity.

Strongly Agree

The population of illegal non citizens who have flooded our southern border during the Biden adminstration numbers in the millions and has resulted in untold human suffering of the migrants themselves, who undertake a perilous journey, who are sexually assaulted and trafficked (including children), and have caused a flood of deadly fentanyl and other drugs into the US, taking American lives. Anyone for an open border is pro-human and child sex trafficking and pro-drug.

Strongly Agree

School choice is the civil rights issue of the 21st century. Every child should have access to the quality education that children of parents of means have always had available to them (through moving to a better zip code or placing their children in private schools). Competition raises the quality and lowers the cost of everything it touches. It is high time that all children regardless of parental affluence had a chance at a quality education.

Strongly Disagree

Police need funding to be effective. Additional funding could be found for community programs if desired by the local municipality but should not be at the expense of law enforcement budgets.

As a Constitutional Conservative I believe in the God-given right to self-defense enshrined and protected by our US Constitution. When seconds count, law enforcement are at best, minutes away. This right "shall not be infringed". Can't really make that much clearer. I believe an armed society is a polite society.

Yes

See above answer. "Gun Free Zones" are merely soft targets for bad actors who know they will encounter little to no resistance from the target. They should be abolished and adults should be allowed to protect themselves from harm.

No

No

Government's proper role is the protection of life, liberty, and property, and every law made should reflect that fact.

Very Conservative

Unlike others who run as "Conservative Republicans" during campaign season and then conveniently ignore conservative priorities during the legislative session, I will be a true conservative not only when campaigning but when authoring and considering legislation for Texas.

Strongly Agree

No gender transition of minors should be legal, and gender transition of adults should not be funded by taxpayers or have its costs borne by insurance but instead should be considered an elective surgery.

Strongly Agree

I am a Christian, specifically a devout Roman Catholic, who believes in the sanctity of life from conception to natural death, that all life is made in the image of God and is therefore sacred and to be protected, and that a society where all strive to live a life of personal sanctification (holiness) is a better society. We will certainly fall but we can also repent, ask for God's forgiveness and our neighbor's forgiveness, and continue on our path to eternity. As Christians we are called to be the salt and the light.

Strongly Disagree

How can this be a question? Election integrity includes ensuring those who vote are legally entitled to do so. Anything less is unacceptable.

Strongly Disagree

The electoral college is part of the original design of the U.S. Constitution, reflecting the federal nature of the American government - a balance between people's vote and states' interests. It ensures smaller states have a voice against the more populous states. Candidates must appeal to a broad range of states and voters, fostering a more inclusive national dialogue. Without the electoral college, many states would never have agreed to join the Union.

Yes. Racism leads to social division, unrest, and undermines trust in institutions. Racially motivated groups can commit acts of violence and terrorism. Addressing these issues in a way that respects individual rights and the rule of law, while also acknowledging the importance of social stability and unity, is key. Upholding the principles of equality and justice as enshrined in the Constitution is essential in mitigating these threats.

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree

For the protection of natural women, biological men should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, or other places reserved solely to women for their safety. Undeniably, men and women are fundamentally different. If they weren't, why would people even want to attempt to change their gender? We must recognize these differences and protect biological women from the intrusion of biological males into their private spaces.

C. The Texas power grid is too reliant on unstable and unreliable sources of power such as wind and solar. Once again this winter, wind and solar are operating at a mere fraction of their installed capacity causing a call for conservation by ERCOT. Texas should prioritize reliable dispatchable power over unreliable power sources for the safety and for the prosperity of Texans.

Nuclear power has had many advances and should be seriously considered as a long term and reliable energy source. Texas is also abundant in natural resources which led to our energy independence from foreign nations, and which should be utilized.
