OTHER INFORMATION

QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?

Only when the fetus is no longer viable

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

Do you support the proposed Yes for Life amendment to the Kentucky Constitution, which makes clear that there is no state constitutional right to abortion?

Yes

I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.

Disagree

As a nurse we can make them comfortable, but God chooses when they die, not man


ECONOMY

What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?

We need to lower taxes. People work too hard for their money and the government wastes too much

What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?

Look at the budget and cut unnecessary spending.

Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.

Disagree

The public doesn’t have a say in the stopping the socialism agenda and therefore should not have to pay


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

The customer can find another vendor, but no one should ‘be made’ to offer services that go against their morals and ethics

Under what circumstances can government close churches?

Never


HEALTHCARE

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.

B

Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?

Never. It is up to an individual to decide what goes in their body. Some vaccines have been around and are proven safe and effective while other are too new and don’t have enough data behind them


NATIONAL SECURITY

What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?

Close the borders and verify who is coming in

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.

Choose not to answer

I don’t know enough to form an opinion right now


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?

Anyone who goes through the process as did the many before them


EDUCATION

The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child instead of the bureaucracy, through a program which allows parents the freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.

Strongly Agree


VALUES

Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.

Strongly Agree

I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.

Strongly Disagree

I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

Strongly Disagree

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Baptist. I believe that God sent his son, Jesus Christ to die for our sins. I also believe when prayer and the 10 commandments were taken out of schools and public places, the general public became more selfish and disrespectful to others

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


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

Only a citizen with proper ID should have a say in how our government is run, who is elected and what bills pass

What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?

Proper Voter ID in all states. Limit the use of absentee ballots.


EQUALITY

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

No. Although some people are racist I feel as a whole the media and the government portray that racism plays a big part in the problems of the US as an excuse

Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.

Strongly Disagree

Generations of every race has gone through some type of unfairness. We need to move on from all this


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

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.

Neither. Both of these statements need more clarification

I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.

Neutral

Depends on the area. The people of that community should have a say in what goes on to their lands


ABOUT YOU

What do you think is the general purpose of government?

To represent the people who elected them

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?

Moderate

Overall, moderate. Some issues I am very Conservative on where some I may have a more moderate view

Please provide publicly available information, including interviews and media reports, validating your answer to the previous question (other than your website).

I have been very vocal when it comes to school curriculum, mask and vaccine mandates. Several articles have been published with my name and or face included.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized in either civil or criminal court for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.

Absolutely Not

What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?

I am a woman of action not just words. Many people say they will do something, but when I say I will, you can bank on it and hold me accountable


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.

Disagree

Police have to follow policy and procedure and if they go outside of that they should be held accountable for their actions

I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.

Strongly Disagree

Police departments funds should be separate from mental health/ community funds. Each are separate entities.


2ND AMENDMENT

What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?

None. The more restrictions the less freedoms we have

Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.

Disagree

The one who pulls the trigger is libel not the maker or manufacturer


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

Do you support the expansion of gambling in Kentucky?

Yes

The LGBTQ+ agenda’s advocacy for puberty blockers, biological males competing on girls’ sports teams, and allowing biological males into girls’ restrooms, locker rooms, and showers threatens the wellbeing of our children.

Strongly Agree

It doesn’t matter how you identify, your body is still what ever gender as you were born. DNA cannot be changed. With regards to locker rooms and bathrooms, perhaps we go to make, female and unisex. Then if one day you decide you are a different sex you use the unisex bathroom. Everyone is happy.
