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
The Constitution gives the government limited powers, they are restricted from doing anything not specifically delegated.
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.
Neutral
It would depend on what specifically you are referring to as abortion drugs and at what stage they are being used. Based on individual beliefs there are stages ranging from preventive to abortive and my answer would vary.
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
None
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?
I would support no Federal Legislation for abortion. The Tenth Amendment applies. It is not delegated to the Federal government and therefore is reserved to the States or the people.
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
I would advocate to have the Sixteenth amendment repealed and taxes be collected based on Article 1, Section 2, where it would be apportioned among the States, according to their respective number and to include all persons.
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
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
As stated in the First Amendment Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. The government has no place in religion. The people are free to practice any religion they choose or to choose not to practice any religion.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Disagree
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
NONE
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.
D. I do believe that Medicare should be defunded, but gradually for those who paid into it and are currently receiving it.
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. The United States was the first to recognize Israel when it declared independence in 1948 and we have a long standing relationship and shared values with them.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
Several reasons, in my opinion. As to recruitment, the current image of our Military is no longer one of strength and there appears to be apathy toward serving. As to retention, the standards have been lowered and active service members are frustrated with the burden this causes. As this is my opinion it could be other reasons.
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?
Due to the current invasion at the Southern Border we should suspend all immigration until we can ascertain the ramification of our current situation. Then resume legal immigration according to our laws.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Agree
with the exceptions of voucher programs and tax credits
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
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
The government has no place in marriage. Though that is my personal belief, it is not my place to tell anyone that they have to agree with me. Just as I don't have to agree with someone else's beliefs.
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 non denominational Christian and my values align with the Bible.
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
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Currently fossil fuels and nuclear energy are the most reliable sources. With the growing demand for electricity we do not have the infrastructure to sustain other sources at this time.
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 establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the Blessings of Liberty for ourselves and posterity. To be limited to the defined delegated power in the United States Constitution.
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
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
The Supreme Court should be reformed to include more seats.
Strongly Disagree
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?
None. The Second amendment says shall not be infringed, therefore there should be no government restrictions.
