QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Women decide, no exceptions.
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.
Neutral
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Disagree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Agree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
In a crisis, like a pandemic, public safety comes first. If the threat is real and rules are fair for everyone, temporary closures can be justified. But no singling out churches. Neutrality is key. Protecting lives while respecting religious freedom is the balance we need.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Agree
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

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.

ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Disagree
What is your position on the minimum wage?
It’s time for a living wage. West Virginians deserve fair pay for hard work. Boosting the minimum wage means more money in your pocket, and a stronger economy. It’s about divinity, Justice, and giving power back to the people.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Yes
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
