I am a strong pro-life person. Any medical treatment, whether I agree with it or not, should be undertaken with great care ensuring the patient knows the possible physical, emotional, and mental health consequences.

Life is a gift from God and should not be easily dismissed. This is a slippery slope we must avoid. Yes life has difficult and painful times. I watched my father struggle with dementia yet his waning months were some of the most precious.

Everyone's rights should be respected. Where our beliefs and practices are at odds we must have the ability to respectfully part ways. Currently there are some groups that want to force conformity in violation of an individual's convictions. A free society must have the capacity for a wide variety of beliefs, convictions and practices. At the same time, there must also be dignity, compassion, respect and tolerance for those we disagree with.

Strongly Agree

Yes. Israel is a valuable ally in the Middle East. Israel is a place where Jews, Arabs, and Christians live together in relative peace. The minuscule portion of land held by Israel is hotly contested simply because many people hate the Jews. We must stand against such hatred.

C. Unfortunately the system has been structured in such a way that Medicare and Medicaid cannot be eliminated without causing seniors and the poor to be left with no healthcare. Also, we must recognize that some people will need assistance. This need not be a permanent situation for all. The free market has the capacity to adapt in a relatively cost effective manner if the government does not overburden with mandates, regulations, etc. People must have freedom of choice.

Polio and other diseases have been eliminated by vaccines. However, the redefining of terms and the politicalization of vaccines had made this a controversial issue. Ultimately no one has the right to tell anyone what they must put in their body.

Strongly Agree

Many have fallen into the trap thinking there is a limited amount of success available. We should not punish but encourage success. We must encourage equality of opportunity knowing there will not be equality of outcome. We all have different skill sets, things we value, and tolerances for difficulty until breakthrough comes.

The minimum wage issue has list sight of the reality that an entry level wage is not meant to be a living wage. Currently the minimum wage has deleterious effects on inflation and job creation.

No

This is a discriminatory practice and should not be contemplated. We have the freedom of thought, speech, expression, etc. No one should be allowed to dictate what another thinks, does, or believes. The group think mentality is contrary to a free, healthy, and prosperous society.

Strongly Agree

Criminal gangs, drug cartels, human traffickers and terrorists are taking advantage of our porous border to bring harm to people and this nation. We must close the border to protect our sovereignty, shut down human trafficking, stem the flow of drugs, and ensure Americans are safe in their homes, property, and persons. Legal immigration is fine and could expanded if illegal immigration is stopped. We must know who is coming to the US and why. It is proper to defend our citizens from criminals.

Strongly Agree

As long as the government does not have the means to dictate the curriculum and content of classes I am in favor of the money allotted to a student being given to parents to spend as they see fit without government interference. Parents have the right to know what their children are being taught. Parents also know what is appropriate for their children. Teachers and administrators can openly lie to parents which is WRONG!

Strongly Disagree

It is folly to believe we do not need police. What we do not need is a national police force. Local control, interaction, accountability and relationships help keep the police a general force for good.

What part of shall not be infringed does the government not understand? The 2nd amendment was primarily written as a means for the people to protect themselves from a tyranical government. Violent criminals, domestic abusers and others may lose this right after due process of law but, the inherent right to keep and bear arms is a constitutional reality.

Yes

Teachers should be afforded the right to protect themselves and students from violent intruders. They should be given high levels of training so they and our children are as safe as possible.

No

No

To secure the rights of the people and to provide for the defense of the nation. The constitution outlines the role of the federal government. Obviously we have allowed things to get way out of control. It is time to reign in the behemoth of government.

Children cannot drive, smoke, buy alcohol, get a tattoo, etc. They should not be allowed to make decisions that will alter their lives forever. We must also examine why there is such confusion in this generation. What is happening in primary and secondary schools. What is happening in the media, entertainment and governmental realms that is fostering such confusion? The social experimentation must end.

Strongly Agree

Everyone deserves to be respected and valued even if you disagree with their lifestyle choices. As an example, hospital visitation, property inheritance rights are not predicated strictly on being married. We can acknowledge people and their inherent worth without violating millennia of historical reality. Mutual respect and freedom to respectfully disagree are imperative for a civil society.

I am a strong Christian. I believe all people are created in the image of God and as such they have inherent worth and value. No one person is of greater intrinsic value than any other. God loves all people but that does not mean He approves of everyone's conduct.

Strongly Disagree

Election integrity is in question. We must work to ensure everyone has confidence in the electoral process. We require identification to fly on an airplane, buy alcohol, drive, etc. Requiring identification to vote is not burdensome, it points to the value we place on the right to vote.

Strongly Disagree

The electoral college is a constitutional mechanism that helps ensure the rights of the minority are not trampled upon by the majority.

Since America is made up of imperfect humans there will always be streams of racism in our society. We must work to educate people regarding the reality that "all men are created equal". Racism is divisive and therefore a potential threat to a harmonious society. We have made great strides in racial harmony but there is always more to be done. There are more profound threats to domestic security such as radicalized religious and political people, the CCP, etc.

Strongly Disagree

Critical race theory is racist.

Strongly Agree

c. We must protect the environment but we also must ensure we have affordable, reliable sources of energy. In a hostile world we need to be energy independent. We also need to continue to develop other forms of energy production. We should not prematurely introduce them. Nor should we allow politicians to benefit from the funding of "pet" energy "solutions". Market forces will shape our energy future in such a way that people and jobs will less likely be harmed in the process.

Nuclear and fossil fuels are the current go to sources. Others will usurp them in the future. Thus far, there is not a significantly reliable, long term alternative. We must encourage innovation and demand that the government not pick winners/losers.
