OTHER INFORMATION

QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

The life of the mother

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

Abortion drugs should not be legal, but while they are they should be monitored.

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.

Strongly Disagree


ECONOMY

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

Strongly Agree

This is fundamental to a free people, This principle can never be compromised.

What is your position on the minimum wage?

The minimum wage is technical government price setting. Americans believe in Limited government. A free market does an excellent job for setting the fair wage for merit based employment. Competition automatically brings up all wages in a community.

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

No

This is called government interference. Americans believe in Limited government.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Under what circumstances can government close churches?

According to the constitution and the declaration of independence and Gods Law the government does not have jurisdiction over church's. So the answer is never.

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

Strongly Disagree

The government is by law required to punish me if I harm someone. But not punish me for not providing goods or services.


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.

American Healthcare has traditional been provided by religious and private institutions. And in the past health care had a cost correlated to the product. America needs to begin to go back to these fundamental principles in health care. Each person and family needs to be able to make value based judgements on the treatments they choose. This means we need to make incremental movements to reduce government involvement

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

Never mandated . All vaccines should be consider elective, and parents and patients should have all the available facts given about the vaccine and the conversations should be open and transparent.


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?

All country's that support free markets and free citizens and elections should always be allies of America.


IMMIGRATION

The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.

Strongly Agree

We should encourage Only Legal immigration, all others should be kept out or deported.


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 Agree

This is one step in the process needed to get government influence out of the classroom.


VALUES

Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.

Strongly Agree

Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.

Strongly Agree

Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.

Strongly Disagree

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 Christian, and I believe that the virtues of the Judeo Christian faith are the building blocks of America, its constitution and all free and just societies.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

We need to verify the identity of the voter. But Amish as well as others do not have a photo ID, So requiring a Photo is bad idea, But verification is of utmost importance!

States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.

Strongly Disagree

This would create a democracy. Our constitution supports a representative republic


EQUALITY

Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?

Yes, because the liberals are advocation for reverse racism by requiring racial and gender quotas be met instead of merit based hiring and admissions.

I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

Strongly 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

CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

2ND AMENDMENT

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

We have more laws than are being enforced. Enforce the laws that protect the citizen and the innocent. If we would properly prosecute violent criminals and punish the criminal that uses a gun, the violence would quickly stop,. The people that do crimes are the problem not the tools they use.

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

Yes
