QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.

Strongly Agree

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

High risk of death to the mother

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Taxpayers should not have to pay for poor choices

The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.

ECONOMY

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Strongly Agree

List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Agree

What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

Freedom of Religion protection under the constitution Federal Government should not interfere with religion and keep the two separate


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.

Corruption in the insurance and pharmaceutical industry needs to be investigated and addressed because this is what caused high prices.if you go to other countries without health insurance you would be surprised at how reasonable the prices are for healthcare. The US is the only country with industry driven control over healthcare costs

The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

That’s part of the problem with higher healthcare costs now


NATIONAL SECURITY

D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.

Strongly Agree


IMMIGRATION

Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?

Anyone who is vetted and comes in legally to become a citizen and contribute to this great nation

I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.

Strongly Disagree

Sanctuary cities only invite bad actors and violence that risk the lives and safety of our communities and our children


EDUCATION

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree


VALUES

2ND AMENDMENT

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

Registration of new firearms with reasonable background checks. The good guys are not the problem and the bad guys are going to get the guns anyway you look at it. It’s very difficult to stop someone who is willing to die to to injure or kill others.
