Strongly Agree

No abortion provider should receive taxpayer funding, regardless of how those funds are distributed, including through NGOs or other intermediaries. I will also work to strengthen laws to ensure that abortion providers cannot profit from the sale of fetal body parts, and I will support prosecuting any violations to the fullest extent of the law. Additionally, any taxpayer dollars allocated to family planning or women’s healthcare providers should be subject to strict auditing.

I do not support elective abortion. I believe in protecting unborn life while ensuring that doctors can act when a mother’s life is in danger, and that women facing difficult circumstances have access to compassionate support and resources.

Strongly Agree

I believe every human life has inherent value and deserves legal protection from conception until natural death. Our laws should reflect a commitment to defending the most vulnerable.

Strongly Agree

Every human life has inherent dignity and worth, including embryos created through artificial means. I believe they should be protected from purposeful destruction, just as we seek to protect life in all its stages.

Strongly Agree

State laws regulating abortion should absolutely be consistent regardless of the delivery method. If it happens in South Carolina, it should be governed by South Carolina law. Period.

I believe in helping workers succeed, but government-set wage floors often hurt small businesses and entry-level job opportunities. The best path to higher wages is a strong economy and workforce development with less government regulations.

Strongly Agree

Private property rights are a cornerstone of free enterprise and a strong economy. Ownership drives innovation and productivity, and markets (not government) should determine prices, with limited regulation only to prevent monopolies. I also support eliminating property taxes, as it is unjust to continually tax individuals on property they already own.

Crack down on fraud and abuse – Strengthen audits and enforcement to ensure every taxpayer dollar is spent legally and appropriately. Freeze unnecessary spending growth – Require agencies to justify new spending before asking for more tax dollars. Audit and streamline government agencies – Identify duplication, outdated programs, and inefficiencies, and eliminate what is not delivering results. Reduce bloated bureaucracy – Right-size the state workforce and focus resources on frontline services

Separation of church and state is often misunderstood. It was designed to prevent government control over religion, not to exclude people of faith or religious voices from public life. I believe individuals and churches have the right and, in many cases, a Biblical responsibility to engage in the civic and political process as part of exercising their beliefs, while the government must not establish or control religion.

Strongly Disagree

Individuals and businesses should not be compelled to provide services in a way that violates their sincerely held moral or religious beliefs. Protecting freedom of conscience is a core American principle, and people should not be forced to choose between their livelihood and their deeply held convictions.

I would say C, but that technically eliminates programs like VA Health Care. B becomes the better option because it preserves Medicare and Medicaid while still allowing private insurance and personal choice. It protects vulnerable populations without eliminating all public healthcare support. We must also prioritize reducing fraud, waste, and abuse in Medicaid, including discouraging misuse of emergency rooms for non-emergencies like common colds, which drives up costs and strains resources.

Strongly Disagree

This raises serious concerns about privacy and government overreach. Medical decisions and information should remain between patients and providers, not be used to build government databases for tracking or measuring individuals’ economic value. Efforts to control healthcare costs should focus on reducing fraud, improving efficiency, and encouraging competition—not expanding centralized data collection on personal health conditions.

Strongly Agree

I believe the Chinese Communist Party represents one of, if not the greatest, national security threat to the United States. An America First approach means putting U.S. security, workers, and economic independence ahead of global interests protecting our borders, safeguarding our technology and intellectual property, and ensuring American supply chains are not dependent on adversaries. We must confront these threats directly and consistently to put American interests first.

Israel is a key democratic ally in a vital region and a strong partner in intelligence, counterterrorism, and regional security, supporting U.S. national security interests. An America First approach means all foreign relationships must be judged only on what benefits the United States. No ally should receive automatic support or influence U.S. domestic policy. Our standard is simple: is it good for America and Americans?

Strongly Disagree

Absolutely not. We must enforce our laws. This is key to remaining a free and prosperous country.

Agree

We should absolutely decentralize the DoEd, but completely handing the reins of education over to the states presents challenges. I believe we should reduce the DoEd workforce by 85% or more and use it to establish national standards and controls to ensure that our children are being educated and not indoctrinated.

Strongly Agree

U.S. schools and institutions should remain independent and free from outside influence, ensuring that curriculum, research priorities, and policy decisions are guided by American interests and values, not foreign governments. Likewise, American university research should not be shared with or directed to foreign entities, especially hostile nations, where it could be used against U.S. national security or economic interests.

Strongly Agree

I strongly agree that parents have the fundamental right and responsibility to direct the health and educational decisions of their children. Families, not government, should be the primary authority in raising and guiding children. Public policy should reinforce parental control, transparency in schools, and respect for individual family values.

Strongly Agree

I strongly believe that parents must be fully informed and involved in all major medical and psychological decisions affecting their children. Schools and healthcare providers should not take any steps related to gender identity or medical transition without parental notification and consent. We must ensure strong safeguards, transparency, and caution in any treatments involving minors, prioritizing long-term health, mental well-being, and parental authority in every case.

Strongly Agree

Marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman, rooted in religious conviction and not defined by government.

Strongly Disagree

I strongly disagree with expanding gambling in our state. Casinos and widespread gambling may promise revenue, but they often bring addiction, family financial distress, and higher social service and law enforcement costs. They also drain spending from local small businesses while concentrating profits in a few large operators. We should be building strong, stable communities not expanding industries that profit from addiction and create long-term harm.

I am a sincere Christian. My faith in Jesus Christ informs my world view and morality. I believe that the Bible is God’s Word and the foundation of a just and prosperous society.

Strongly Disagree

Pass the SAVE Act

Strongly Disagree

Strongly Agree

I strongly support maintaining clear, at-birth, sex-based categories in competitive sports to ensure fairness in women’s AND men's athletics. Likewise, privacy and safety considerations in spaces such as locker rooms, shelters, and correctional facilities must be legislatively addressed and enforced. All policies should prioritize safety and set clear biology-based standards.

Strongly Disagree

I strongly disagree that man-made climate change is a crisis requiring mandates. Climate policy is driven more by consensus politics and alarmism than objective science, leading to higher energy costs and harm to families and businesses. We should separate environmental stewardship from climate alarmism. Protecting our natural resources matters, but it should be addressed through practical, solutions not policies that undermine energy reliability or economic growth.

Natural gas, nuclear and coal.

Very Conservative

I believe in upholding the Constitution to insure that our God given rights are protected. Government must be made accountable to the people. We need smaller government, less regulations and lower taxes.

No

No

The goal of the criminal justice system should be simple: enforce the law, protect the public, and hold people accountable. If you break the law, there must be real consequences, regardless of who you are or what position you hold. Public safety comes first, and the rights of law-abiding citizens should always outweigh the interests of repeat offenders or violent criminals. A justice system that fails to enforce the law fairly and firmly loses trust.

Strongly Agree

Protecting children from sexual exploitation online is of the utmost importance. Law enforcement must have the tools, resources, and authority to aggressively identify and prosecute predators, shut down exploitative content, and hold tech platforms accountable for failing to safeguard minors. No child should be left vulnerable in digital spaces, and protecting them must always be a top priority.

Strongly Agree

Sharia law is wholly inconsistent with our Constitution.

Crime control, not gun control is the key to public safety. We should not be adding new restrictions on law-abiding citizens. I strongly support Second Amendment rights and oppose broad bans or expanded regulations that impact responsible gun owners. At the same time, we should focus on keeping guns out of the hands of criminals - and putting criminals behind bars not barrels.
