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?

Abortion should never be allowed

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

Strongly Agree

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.

Eliminate unelected bureaucracies that operate without accountability. Consolidate or abolish duplicative agencies and programs. End automatic funding increases and require measurable results. Close the revolving door between lobbyists and the government. Return authority and resources to states and taxpayers.


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?

It means the government cannot establish or control religion, not that faith must be excluded from public life. This principle has been misused to silence people of faith. Our Constitution protects religious liberty, and Americans should never be forced to abandon their beliefs to participate in civic life.


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 as safety nets, not a gateway to government-run healthcare. Federal control has driven costs higher and reduced choice. Patients and doctors, not Washington bureaucrats or corporate insiders, should make healthcare decisions.

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.

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?

Yes. Israel is a critical ally in a dangerous region and a key partner in national security and intelligence. Standing with Israel demonstrates strength, supports democratic values, and counters terrorism and instability that threaten American interests.

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?

America is a nation of laws, and immigration must be legal, secure, and enforced. Those seeking to immigrate should follow a lawful process that prioritizes public safety, national security, and economic self-sufficiency. Immigration policy should reward merit, respect family unity within the law, and allow limited humanitarian relief in clearly defined cases. Illegal immigration and open-border policies weaken the rule of law, burden taxpayers, and hurt American workers.

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.

My values are grounded in my Christian faith, the belief that our rights come from God, and the importance of family and personal responsibility. A strong nation depends on moral leadership, strong families, and individuals who live with purpose, accountability, and service, not dependence on government or bureaucratic control.


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?

Energy independence must be the goal. America has abundant oil, natural gas, and nuclear resources, yet political ideology restricts their use. Reliable, affordable American energy strengthens our economy, protects families, and prevents dependence o


ABOUT YOU

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

No

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

No

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.

Strongly Agree


2ND AMENDMENT

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

No new restrictions on law-abiding citizens. Criminals do not follow gun laws. Public safety comes from enforcing existing laws, prosecuting violent offenders, and defending the Second Amendment as a fundamental constitutional right.
