OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Rape, incest, life of mother or baby, invisibility outside the womb.
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 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
What is your position on the minimum wage?
I believe that states and employers should have the right to set wages and pay a fair wage for the work being done. As a business owner we try to pay fair wages but ever increasing minimum wage could put us and other small businesses out of business

No

None. Religious institutions are protected by the 1st Amendment.

NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes it is important. They are the only Democratically elected government in the Middle East.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
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.
Neutral
If the State controls the dollars they control the Agenda. Thai Question does not address all the issues that education faces families should always be able to choose how to educate their children.
VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.

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

Government should not be involved in the marriage institution if other couples want to be together. No one government should have the right to say. Government should stay out of marriage.

I believe God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Never. Only citizens should vote.
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.

People need to be better educated on the electoral college. We are a Constitutional Republic. Not a Democracy.

No. The American people are decent and accepting and want equality for all.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
