While abortions is a personal choice among women, it is just that, a choice. To have tax payers fund for a personal decision may go against the values and beliefs including religious beliefs of other tax payers. The argument is that government funding should only be used for services that are essential or necessary for the general public.

While I am in opposition of abortions, I am in full understanding that woman have this choice. If this is the decision that is to be made, as a nurse I strongly support full consultation with a medical advisor such as a doctor as well as someone in mental health for guidance. Many things can go wrong with self administrating chemical abortions such as excessive bleeding, incomplete abortion, infection. Also the emotional trauma of that may impact ones decision could be forever consequential.

Elective - meaning, chosen by the patient, NOT urgently necessary. There is a huge difference between having an option and necessary, therefore, I do not believe "elective" constitutes any reason for abortion.

I do not believe the federal government should play a role in abortion, which is why Roe V Wade was overturned and handed back to each state. Abortion is a private matter that should between a woman and her doctor least of which should not have involvement from a government that no longer wants issue in this decision making process.

I would advocate for comprehensive tax reform that lowers tax rates for individuals and businesses. Simplify tax codes to reduce loopholes. support tax credits for low income families. create and support more job opportunities for businesses.

This question is out of my scope to advise., but from what I have researched, Incorporating ESG into investments, decisions for public monies can have potential benefits, however challenges should be addressed regarding financial performance.

We have religious freedoms apart from our federal government as exercised in our 1st Amendment of the Constitution. The government should not endorse or promote one religion over another and that the people have the right to practice their beliefs or not.

Forcing business owners to provide services may violate their beliefs and violate their freedoms just as the ones we are trying to protect individually. If they built their business, It is in my opinion they own the rights, after all it was through their hard work and effort it exists.

Never ever should a government. Healthschool or employer be allowed to mandate vaccinations. Individuals have the right to body autonomy. Its called medical freedoms, and mandating vaccines is in complete violation of this.

Health care should be available to all and based on a sliding scale for governmental assistance to those who cannot afford it and supplemented for those paying private if one so chooses, but no one should go without healthcare. Strict guidelines must be met and followed when suppling healthcare. The Government should not hold the weight of this burden.

It is of utmost importance. Israel is a strategic ally in the volatile Middle East. We share interests and values and have had a treaty with them since 1948. Israel has always respected and honored the US as is reciprocated. Above all, God commanded us to protect Israel, for it is his chosen nation.

I believe attitude towards our military have changed. I believe Americans have lost their appreciation of the men and women who serve. Also the risk of deployment. They still have a strict and stringent standards for recruitment which definitely limits the pool especially since so many men are now limiting themselves against masculine jobs.

The US shouldn't, President Joe Biden can and should. He has the ability without congress passing anything to close the southern border. He can enforce executive order to close it now.

Anyone should be allowed to apply to come to the US through proper channels and vetting. This gives us time to do background checks and prioritize people who come legally to our country. No one at this point or prior should be coming through our borders.

Thank you for this questions. I claim Jesus as my Lord and Savior. He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords with whom I receive my strength. I want to honor and give him all the praise and glory. I can tell you I am not without sin but I fully rely of him to set me free. I was raised in a Christian home by two loving parents who taught me about God and the biblical values many of us hold to today. My grandfather was a war veteran, my grandmother a Rosie Riveter. I have deep respect for our country and the sacrifice of our military men and wormen.

It is in my opinion that every one who has the privilege to vote must show proper identification to ensure voter integrity. We have to show ID for a lot of other things, such as airfare, alcohol purchases, and many other things.

Males are male, period. Men DO NOT belong in women's sports because men actually have a physical advantage over women, which gives an unfair playing field over women. We need to preserve and protect women's rights and also preserve women in sports. Allowing men in womens private facilities compromises privacy and security for girls and women.

Climate change policy main objective is to keep our environment safe and many believe we can achieve this with clean renewable energy, however, we need compromise on both sides. While effective green energy policies may help in aiding the reduction of climate change, we still need resources such as fossil fuels as they are still our the life blood of our economy and can be used anywhere regardless of time, location, or weather.

Our police have already taken a cut and defunding which is why we have so much crime in our cities. People no longer want to join the police force and there are far too many criminals than police are available. We would be far better off to redirect monies in helping with further training with police and their departments.

Gun Owners are not the problem typically regarding public safety. Most gun owners are responsible and have gone through background checks and safety training. The public must be attentive and aware of criminal who obtain access to guns illegally. I have no issues with continued screenings and vetting future gun purchasers and red flagging potential owners with medical/mental instability. But legal law abiding American citizens that pose no threat are granted to own firearms for protection.
