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

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

All drugs used in medical procedures of any kind should be highly regulated and monitored for reactions. Groups like Planned Parenthood

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Only to save the life of the mother.

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?

Yes. The federal Government still has a role in preventing tax payers money from being spent on abortion on military bases and in foreign aid. I would ensure federal legislation prevented U.S. tax dollars from contributing to abortion. I would also push for a national Right to Life bill to protect all unborn human beings with constitutional rights.


ECONOMY

What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?

I would work to reduce federal income tax for all Americans in every tax bracket. I would also work to reduce federal spending and promote a greater supply of goods and services through deregulation in order to reduce inflation.

Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.

Strongly Agree

All student loans incurred during the COVID shutdown, when universities breached their contract with students, forcing them into remote learning, should be forgiven, but all other occurrences are the responsibility of the student.

Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?

No

Investment decisions should be made in the basis of sound monetary policy and driven by the market, not politically driven social policy.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

That phrase is not in the constitution. Our country and its laws are based on a Judeo/Christian ethic. Our founders understood that our form of government required a moral and religious people to function. The constitution provides freedom of religion, not freedom from religion.

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

Strongly Disagree


HEALTHCARE

Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?

Never.

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


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, United States should always consider what’s in its own interests when engaging in any foreign policy and should utilize diplomacy as its primary means of impacting pro-democratic behavior in other countries.

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 has been a strong partner and ally with Israel. Genesis 12:3 It is in every nations interest to bless Israel.

What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?

The military has become a social experiment where they’ve introduced LGBTQ+ lifestyle and other woke indoctrination. Instead of building patriotic warriors to defend this nation, they’ve allowed the ranks to become filled with mentally ill, out-of-shape, and ill prepared personnel unfit for duty, and many of those who were fit and qualified were forced out through illegal vaccine mandates.
