OTHER INFORMATION

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

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

I believe in the sanctity of life and hold true to one exception: when the life of the mother is in immediate, grave danger.

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

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

Strongly Agree


ECONOMY

What is your position on the minimum wage?

I believe in a fair wage, but I also believe it has to be business-friendly to keep businesses operating.

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.

1. Eliminate duplication 2. Strengthen purchasing oversight 3. Hold agencies accountable for audit findings


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

To me, separation of church and state means the government should not control or interfere with religious institutions, while Americans remain free to practice and express their faith, including in public life. Our government should protect religious liberty and ensure that people of every faith can follow their own beliefs.

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

Neutral

Individuals and businesses that provide goods or services to the public are generally expected to serve customers without discrimination. I, however, believe laws should consider protections for sincerely held moral and religious beliefs when determining whether a service requirement creates a significant conflict with those beliefs. The challenge is finding a balance between ensuring equal access to services and protecting individual religious freedom.


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.

C) Medicaid and Medicare should remain available, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary.

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

Neutral


NATIONAL SECURITY

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 relationship between the United States and Israel is important because the two countries have strong security, diplomatic, economic, and technological ties. They cooperate on military and intelligence matters, missile defense, regional security, and efforts involving Iran and terrorism. The countries also have significant trade and research partnerships.


IMMIGRATION

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

Strongly Disagree


EDUCATION

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

Agree

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree


VALUES

Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.

Agree

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.

Strongly Agree

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 understand that marriage between two consenting adults is legal. Personally, I feel marriage is a faith-based union between a man and a woman, not just a legal contract.

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Neutral

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I have strong faith. I believe in less government, respect for tradition, public safety, religious freedom, limited government, free markets, and a strong national defense.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree


EQUALITY

Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.

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
