QUESTIONNAIRE*
*Additional information was received after the evaluation was assigned and was not considered in the Panel Evaluations, therefore it is for additional educational purposes only.
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
I am 100% pro-life and believe life begins at conception. I would work with Governor DeSantis to craft pro-life legislation that helps protect the lives of unborn children. There is only one exception and that is 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
There should never be taxpayer money used to promote or perform 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?
In Florida, we have to keep taxes low and protect against left-wing attempts to bring an income tax to Florida. We need to protect our income taxes holiday's as well.
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
In Florida, we're balancing our budget and putting record into reserves. We can examine ways to cut, and I'd focus off pet projects that are brought my legislators that don;t meet the needs of our state.
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?
NONE!
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.
Healthcare options should be available to purchase and the promises made to seniors should be protected at the same time.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I don't believe medical mandates are constitutional.
NATIONAL SECURITY
What should the United States do to help eradicate the threat of Islamic terrorism?
Though this is a federal issue, we should stop funding madrasas that brainwash children.
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
Israel is our greatest strategic ally and we must always support them and fight back against these type of anti-israel policies.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
We must build the wall and I support Gov DeSantis's efforts to help send agents to the border to help secure our Southern border. In Florida, we have to invest in securing our seaports, airports and any point of entry.
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Those who apply the legal way and do it through the legal process. Criminals and anyone who entered the country illegally should go to the back of the line.
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
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
I support the Gov.'s efforts to ban CRT classroom instruction.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian and my Christianity helps guide all facets of my life. As a conservative, I believe in the sanctity of life and the protecting of the unborn.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
Photo ID should be required to vote.
What laws would you propose to change present voting practices?
More oversight of ballot drop boxes and more strict penalties for voter fraud.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
No. Lawlessness is a threat to domestic security and we have to back our law enforcement and enforce the rule of law.
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
The United States is blessed with vast natural resources and there are many areas around the country where this practice can be done safely and without a negative impact to the community or environment. It will also help drive energy prices down - which right now is crippling families.
ABOUT YOU
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To provide a framework for security and public safety and a marketplace for ideas and commerce.
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?
Very Conservative
Please provide publicly available information, including interviews and media reports, validating your answer to the previous question (other than your website).
I'm a small business owner and have never run for office, so there aren't media or interviews to put. But you can see my campaign material online and as a lifelong conservative and business owner, I believe my life's work backs up my beliefs.
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.
What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
I am a small business owner and hometown conservative who will work with Governor DeSantis to fight back against the dysfunction of the Biden Administration, the crippling inflation his policies have caused, and we need to keep Florida free for generation to come.
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
We must always give law enforcement the tools and resources they need - because once you stop investing in public safety, crime rises and getting crime back down will cost taxpayers even more money.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
law abiding individuals should NOT be restricted to any constitutional right
Victims of gun violence should be able to sue firearms dealers and manufacturers.
Strongly Disagree
