QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Did not answer
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Did not answer
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Did not answer
What is your position on the minimum wage?
Did not answer
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Did not answer
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Did not answer
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Did not answer
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.
B) Americans pay DOUBLE on healthcare per capita than socialists countries like Sweden, for worse outcomes. The lifespan of Americans is seven years lower. But you don't need me to tell you our healthcare system is broken, I'm sure you've lived it.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Did not answer
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
We are directly wasting billions of taxpayer dollars to fund genocide of Palestinian civilians. It hurts Americans and innocent people.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Neutral
We should allow more legal immigration while shutting down illegal immigration that leads to humanitarian crises at the border.
EDUCATION
The state should fund education by allowing dollars to follow the child through programs which protect parents' freedom to choose their child's school – public, private, or homeschool.
Strongly Disagree
Rich elite should not be able to manipulate public funds, disadvantaging normal children. Every school deserves funding and kids deserve an opportunity to learn.
VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Did not answer
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Did not answer
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Agree
The US military spends orders of magnitude more on viagra than on gender transition medications and surgeries combined. Furthermore, gender dysphoria is a debilitating affliction and should be dealt with in the most effective, science based way, which is supporting transitioning for trans people. No other treatment has been shown to work.
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 Disagree
Marriage is a societal construct that signifies love between people and there is no logical reason to restrict it to only between men and women.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Did not answer
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Did not answer
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Did not answer
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Choose not to answer
CRT states that there are systematically racist laws and standards in society. Black and white Americans use drugs at roughly the same rate but blacks are 6x more likely to be imprisoned for it. CRT simply teaches about the data described systematic racism.
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.
Did not answer
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.
D) Our environment is an incredible gift. In Washington we have mountains, some clean air, beautiful forests -- so long as we haven't clear cut them -- and abundant marine life. But farmers here know there are droughts. In Washington we know there are fires. Salmon fishermen know our ecosystems are dying. The natural resources of our state that sustain us are rapidly depleting. It is in the interest of every Washingtonian to protect our Earth and the beautiful state that we're lucky to live in.
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Using less energy. I don't live in a fantasy world where we can keep increasing energy use forever.
