OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
To save a mothers life. If the fetus in utero is determined to be unviable. I don't want parents to have to give birth to a child that will suffer.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Neutral
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Agree
ECONOMY
What changes, if any, should be made to the tax code?
I think the tax code is fairly balanced right now. I don't think high earners should be taxed higher just because they had the good fortune to be rich!
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
Start with cutting the exorbitant pay members of congress receive. Stop sending assistance to war torn countries. We can barely help our own country right now.
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Neutral
This should NOT be mandatory. You should be responsible to pay SOME of yours or your family's higher education.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Neutral
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Probably none unless the "church" is run by crazy satanic worshipers or pedophiles!
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.
B. If you are able to get your own insurance as from a job, but may need extra coverage from Medicare or Medicaid.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
If there is a health care emergency. They should give the details and let the workers make their own choices.
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Keep an eye on Islamic countries. Definitely profile dangerous people that are in our country.
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.
Neutral
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?
Fully vetted people who have gone thru all the proper government channels to become legal citizens...you need to EARN the precious right to become an American citizen.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Agree
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality which is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
We base our laws on Christianity...THOU SHALT NOT KILL!
I support adding gender identity as a specially protected class in non-discrimination laws.
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
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.
I am spiritual but not overly religious. I reach out to a higher power. I tend to subscribe to a virtuous and godly life style but I am not perfect. I let people live and let live. I always ssay COD BLESS YOU because it can't hurt.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
NO DROP OFF BALLOTS. NO DOZENS OF BALLLOT BOXES ON THE STREETS. CAREFUL SCRUTINY OF MAIL-IN BALLOTS. 2,000 MULES IS REAL!
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Yes. I think it is. People make too much of a deal over RACISIM. We are all AMERICANS. It 2022...we ALL basically have the same rights. No one race needs to be more important than the other. There is too much fighting between the races...
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.

As long we are using American fossil fuels.
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
I believe that government should be an arbiter of what is best for our country and all Americans. AMERICA FIRST.
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?
Lean Conservative
Please provide publicly available information, including interviews and media reports, validating your answer to the previous question (other than your website).
I don't have any readily available. I have an interview in today's Detroit News on the front page...June 21st, 2022 by Craig Mauger. I was part of a group of Trump's "fake electors" of which I knew nothing about! I have been an art dealer, photographer and writer my whole life. Only just got into politics! You can GOOGLE me or go to my personal FB page under Michele Lundgren. Thanks.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized in either civil or criminal court for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No. Never.
What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
My legislative priorities lay at the feet of my constituents and their communities. I want to ALWAYS be available in person to address their concerns and their needs. I want them to know that I am not just taking a paycheck. I want to EARN my money as a legislator. I will make sure their phone calls and or emails are answered. Nothing is more frustrating than to feel you are not being heard. I want to make sure my district is clean and safe and a shining example to our neighbors and surrounding communities. I will never let you down.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Police officers should be personally immune from prosecution for conduct consistent with departmental policy (qualified immunity) while on duty.
Strongly Agree
I support redirecting funds from police departments to mental health and community programs.
Strongly Disagree
Police need their funding to stay with them. Let the other programs raise their OWN money!
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
18 and older. Must re-register their firearms yearly, like a driver's license!
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
