OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Life begins at conception and should be protected until death by natural cause. It is crucial that the adoption process in our country be fixed to eliminate the barriers to entry that limit the ability for traditional family units to adopt children. We need to protect our youth from the perverted attempts to brainwash them into a false sense of morality. Our youth must be protected from the perverted attempts to brainwash them into a false sense of morality and gender ideology.
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?
There should be no minimum wage, the market should determine the wage rate.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Never! Churches should be protected from all government influence and restrictions.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
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.
Our government spends necessary resources on individuals who are able to work and simply don’t want to, or are not willing to change their self-destructive addictions. I believe that the only way to solve many of this country's societal problems is to eliminate government run welfare.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Government should never require vaccinations
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?
The United States relationship is important with Israel to maintain stability in the Middle East and Military alliance.
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
Build the Wall
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.
Agree
I would accept a school voucher program only if the government does not dictate what is taught at such schools. Allowing Christian schools to not be discriminated against and allowing for the teachings of faith within private institutions. This would require a change in the Colorado Constitution.
VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
The attack from the radical left on Traditional Family Values has disrupted the normal adolescent development of our youth. All available recourse must be utilized to end the teaching of gender ideology and the normalization of gender dysphoria. Comprehensive sex education has morally corrupted our youth and taken the rights of parents away to raise their kids in their own faith and beliefs.
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
NEVER.
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
I strongly believe that the government should have no involvement in the institution of marriage and that marriage is a sacred contract between God, one man and one woman. Any attempt to legalize or further the spousal benefits of those involved in homosexual or plural marriage (I believe this is next) should be shot down.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Child of the One True King. I am a Christian who is outspoken in my faith and my trust in God dictates my actions. The Bible is the true, inspired word of God. My faith and trust in God is at the center of my decision making. I will make decisions that align with my Christian worldview and that are Constitutionally sound. I will hold myself accountable to voting for bills that align with the Constitution, limits government and are ethically and morally sound and will vote no on bills that degrade my constituents freedoms and that are morally corrupt.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
Racism is not a threat to domestic security, but the radical ideas of ANTIFA and BLM are a serious threat to the stability of communities around the country. The ideas that racism is still deeply embedded in every aspect of American life I believe to be a false narrative which undermines the safety and security of our country and has led to riots, outrage and pillaging. The radical left does not want equality, they want to elevate certain groups over others through Selective Discrimination.
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
The very idea that schools, sports organizations and government entities would allow our young women to have their privacy and rights stripped from them, rolls back years of precedent aimed to destroy the very foundation women have worked tirelessly to build. Women deserve to be treated with the same respect and decency as everyone else, and allowing biological men into their spaces is morally and ethically corrupt.
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Which comes closest to your view? (Select all that apply) A) Stricter environmental laws and regulations cost too many jobs and hurt the economy. B) Stricter environmental laws and regulations are worth the cost. C) Stricter environmental laws undermine U.S. energy independence and deter development of reliable electricity sources. D) Climate change is real and requires urgent policy action.
C
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
I believe the only alternative energy source that has the potential to make a drastic impact other than traditional sources such as natural gas and coal is geothermal energy.
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
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The government should protect its borders from foreign invasion, allow free-market laissez-faire economy, and protect and defend the Constitution and the rights of every American citizen (especially from the government’s own interference in those rights). Government must maintain separation of powers and not rule by executive order, and more often than not, give power to states to determine the law that governs their land.
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
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Strongly Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
No restrictions should be enacted.
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
