QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Agree
Chemical abortion drugs should meet essential safety standards (such as in-person consultation with a medical doctor) and require reporting to gather evidence on reactions and outcomes.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
The direct and intentional killing of a born or an unborn human being is always wrong. If there are medical conditions where the life of the mother or the unborn child are at risk, the role of the medical doctor is to try and save them both. This is not always possible.
Does the federal government have a role to play in limiting abortion, and if so what federal steps and/or federal legislation would you support?
Yes. Those I will represent in NJ Congressional District 3 want restrictions on abortion. Like them, I want restrictions, too.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The Federal government should not interfere in any way with religious organizations in practicing their faith including the right to speak freely in all matters including the views of political candidates as well as the endorsement of political candidates that espouse their views.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
C
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes. Their status as a free-enterprise country and long term trading partner. Their preservation of the Holy Land for Christians and Jews and sole Democracy in the Middle East.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
Several reasons for this including the military’s embrace of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies as well as the previous Covid vaccine mandate policies. According to Jake Bequette, an Army veteran, it also has a great deal to do with what is being taught to students in schools regarding our history ... shaping the views of America’s youth and making them have less respect for our institutions.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
There are no circumstances where a government body, school or employer should require an injection/"vaccination". You need to go no further than the evidence from the recent "Covid" experience and the huge rise in all-cause mortality and injury.
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.
C
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
Establish a simplified and flat tax system for individuals and businesses to limit (and eventually eliminate) the Internal Revenue Service and the impact of lobbyists. Immediately get businesses out of the tax collection business.
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Strongly Agree
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
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 people who are willing to go through a lawful process and who have taken an oath to abide by the US Constitution and its laws.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Criminal background checks. Other restrictions on commonly used firearms and ammunition for law-abiding men and women do not protect public safety but infringe on 2nd Amendment Rights and actually harm public safety.
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
The Supreme Court should be reformed to include more seats.
Strongly Disagree
ABOUT YOU
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
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To protect the natural, God given rights of each human being.
Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.
No
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.
No
VALUES
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
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Christian and my values are based on biblical teachings.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
Biological males should not be allowed to participate in women's sports or occupy biological women's spaces whether it be bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women's shelters, or prison.
Strongly Agree
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Strongly Disagree
If you ask most people to define "Climate Change" and its "global threat" you will get blank stares or an angry person.
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Nuclear Energy
