Absolutely it has alway been a valued relationship. Geographically it is the best interest of the US to have a strong ally in the Middle East.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.

VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Agree
Depends on the decision!
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Neutral
Marriage certificates are issue by government agencies and therefore government is involved. I believe a true God-ordained marriage is between a man and a women. However a legal certificate issued by a government agency is separate.

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
I believe racism is still a threat to domestic security in United States. I believe politics and government have created a bigger divide against the races. At this point in American history ism should be obsolete. However, it is not. I believe it’s time for all Americans whether they’re race, religion, etc. to come together for far more important challenges faced American families, such as the economy, education and national security. It is time to come together has one and be American.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
