OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
I think it is important to note that in Nevada the right to obtain an abortion has been protected by state law for decades, and the only way that could ever be changed is a by a majority vote of the people. A Nevada state legislator has no ability to alter abortion rights in any way. My personal stance is that abortion should be legal when the life of the mother is at risk and in cases of rape and incest. That being said, I respect the will of the people and they voted to codify abortion into statute in 1990; I will not actively work to change what the voters have already said they wanted.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Choose not to answer
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.

ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
Did not answer
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
I think one of the biggest issues legislators will have to deal with next session when it comes to the budget is all the COVID relief money that Nevada received that went into funding new programs. Since the budget must be balanced per the Nevada State Constitution, future legislators will have to find the money in the state's General Fund to continue to pay for these new programs. Once the money is spent the programs will continue to need funding. That means either cutting the programs or raising taxes, both require very difficult decision making.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Did not answer
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Did not answer
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Did not answer
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Did not answer
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Did not answer
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Agree
I’m a firm believer that every child deserves the opportunity to have a great education. Parents should be empowered to advocate for their children and should be the ultimate decision makers when it comes to where their children attend school. Zip codes should not dictate where a child must go to school. I support breaking up CCSD into smaller more manageable districts, believe we should empower families with educational freedom, and ensure education funding follows the student to the classroom.
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Did not answer
I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.
Did not answer
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition
