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 Supreme Court of the United States struck down Roe vs. Wade. The abortion issue has been sent to the individual states. It is therefore up to state law makers and governors to make these decisions.
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?
No, the federal government does not have a role based on the recent Supreme Court decision.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Protecting the church from the state. The government should not meddle in the affairs of organized religion.
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.

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?
Absolutely! Israel is and has always been our strategic partner in the Middle East against Islamic terrorist.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
Joseph R. Biden and his administration's 'woke' policies in the military and a deep distrust of Biden's leadership.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Under so circumstances.
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.

No
Under no circumstances should public money be invested using ESG criteria.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Absolutely!! We need updated technology on both the southern and northern border. Finish constructing a barrier along the border that makes it physically harder to cross into the USA. Strengthen our 'eyes in the sky' to have better surveillance to determine the flow of illegals heading towards out borders.

After Biden has allowed 10 million illegals to stroll across our borders without repercussions, our refugee and asylum programs should be halted until the illegals are rounded up and deported.
