OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
That's a tough one. When the female's body is in danger because of the birth. If she's been raped. If she emotionally can't handle it.
Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.
Strongly Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Disagree
I think they should receive tax payer's funds only when the female's body is in danger because of the birth. If she's been raped. If she emotionally can't handle it.
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
What is your position on the minimum wage?
I feel that it should be at least $20.00 and hour or each state because of the different costs of living in each state.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Yes
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Unless the crutch is spewing hatred people, societies, and culture.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
They should be required to provide services but they have the right to provide it or deny it if it's theirs. That doesn't make it right though.
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) Taxpayer funded health care should be abolished in all forms, and Medicaid and Medicare should be defunded.
B.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
You should have the right to be vaccinated or not.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
I feel it is because but because of the different governments over time we haven't been correctly compensating to make things work with both sides.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
EDUCATION
The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child through programs which protect parents' freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.
Strongly Agree
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.
Strongly Agree
As long as it doesn't hurt the mental and physical well-being of that minor child.
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
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.
Strongly Agree
No government should be involved; it's up to that individual to make up their mind.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe that Jesus sacrificed his life for us.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Disagree
We need the electoral College until we can prove we don't.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes it is because look what has happened especially to the Jewish people on collage campuses.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Agree
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.
Strongly Agree
They shouldn't be able to because they are taking away literally women sports!
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.
C. and D.
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
I think solar.

No.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.
No.
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The purpose of the government is to assist in taking care of their citizens if need be. Just like the U.S. assists other countries in their time of need; they should do that for their own country.
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?
Conservative

Instead of getting money from the police departments allocate from the U.S. budget to put money into the community programs across the country.

There should be stricter fines and penalties and a two week waiting period and a better background checks.
