OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
To save the Life of the mother.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
No tax funded abortions.
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Strongly Disagree
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Change the Commerce tax. It is preventing manufacturing and entrepreneurs from relocating to Nevada. It is a onerous tax and unfair to business. It taxes businesses even if they do not make a profit.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Education and Medicaid are the two largest drivers of our state budget. I would not decrease any spending but reallocate how those funds are spent. Education dollars should fund students, not schools. Medicaid is spending money on able-bodied healthy adults while ignoring special needs patients. A budget is a reflection of priorities and our current budget is not prioritizing our people.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
If churches are being used to stage terrorist attacks or criminal activity.
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.
option C
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
People should not be forced to inject unwanted medicine into their bodies, especially vaccines that are experimental.
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Assimilate immigrants and unify the people around the Constitution. Constitutional Rights belong to all Americans and we need to better educate and rally around the message of our Constitution. The Constitution protects Muslims, Christians, Jews, or no religious affiliation. There is no better way to prevent extremism than making native born and immigrants feel like proud citizens of the United States.
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.
Strongly Disagree
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?
Only those who are vetted and can benefit this country. The purpose of immigration is to improve our country. Too many times people with hostile views to this country are allowed to immigrate and this hurts America.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
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
It is impossible to change your gender, it is genetically determined. There are recognized abnormalities like Kleinfelter Syndrome that are exceptions. The purpose of gender fluidity is to attack the idea of objective truth. This is a movement intended to cause people to violate their conscience and deny objective truth.
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
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.
Non-Denominational Christian.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
Everyone has an ID. If they don't, the State of Nevada should provide free ID's to make our elections secure. This is a small financial cost for an enormous benefit to all voters.
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
Remove ballot harvesting, require voter ID at polls, revoke universal mail ballots, and require ID or Social security number for any absentee ballots.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Racism exists, it will probably always exist. It is not a major threat to the security of the United States because we have progressed so much since 1964. We need to work at unity instead of division.
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
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.
A
I support the use of hydraulic fracking to extract oil and natural gas resources.
Strongly Agree
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The secure the blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity. It is stated in the preamble of the U.S. Constitution.

Disagree

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

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