OTHER INFORMATION

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?

Elective abortion should never be permitted. In every pregnancy complication, physicians should make every medically reasonable effort to protect and preserve both the life of the mother and her unborn child. When a mother faces a serious risk of death, her life must be protected first, but care should always seek to save both patients whenever possible, rather than treating abortion as the first or only option.

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

Strongly Disagree

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

Strongly Agree


ECONOMY

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

Strongly Agree

People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.

Strongly Disagree

The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.

Strongly Agree

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

Remove duplicative departments, dissolve departments that can and should be handled at the state level, increase penalties for committing fraud and enforce the laws we have, remove illegal immigrants from welfare, SNAP, housing, and all other government benefits, and promote fiscal conservative values.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

Strongly Disagree

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

“Separation of church and state” means government should not establish or force one national religion on the people. It does not mean faith must be removed from public life or that Americans cannot bring their religious convictions into government. Our nation was founded on Christian principles, and I believe those values; faith, liberty, personal responsibility, and the inherent worth of every human life; remain essential to the strength and future of our country.


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.

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 United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger.

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' relationship with Israel is vitally important. Israel stands as America's strongest and most reliable democratic ally in the volatile Middle East, providing critical intelligence sharing, joint military technology, and a forward base against shared threats like Iran, Hamas, and radical Islamic terrorism. Supporting Israel advances peace through strength, upholds Judeo-Christian values, and protects U.S. national security interests without committing more American troops.

Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.

Strongly Agree


IMMIGRATION

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

Legal immigration only, based strictly on merit and America's national interest. The U.S. should prioritize high-skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and those who can assimilate quickly, contribute economically, and share our values while dramatically reducing low-skilled and chain migration that strains welfare systems, wages, and social cohesion. No one should enter illegally; secure the border first, end catch-and-release and sanctuary policies, and enforce existing laws without amnesty.

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.

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree


VALUES

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

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a sinner and have fallen short of the gory of God, but by His grace He sent His fully God fully man son into the world to live a perfect life and to die on the cross so that His blood could pay for my sins and I could inherit eternal life through nothing I have done on my own, but by believing on Him. God died for all and desires all to come to Him and will save all who believe.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree


EQUALITY

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

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?

Coal is the most reliable energy source to meet America's growing electricity demand. It provides consistent, reliable power that is affordable and abundant here at home. We should prioritize American coal, natural gas, and nuclear.


ABOUT YOU

Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.

I have not.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

I have not.

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


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.

Agree


2ND AMENDMENT

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

Virtually none for law-abiding citizens. The Second Amendment was enshrined to protect our God-given right to defend ourselves, our families, and our liberty from tyranny. Criminals will always find ways to get firearms regardless of laws; the focus must be on swift prosecution of violent offenders, secure borders to stop illegal trafficking, and protecting the rights of responsible Americans rather than eroding them through ineffective restrictions.
