QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I prefer none, but for the sake of the mother's life.
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
Since it has been ruled by the US Supreme Court that chemical abortion drugs are approved based on no reported damage to an individual, strict reporting of any adverse damage should be gathered and reported swiftly and publicly. Wyoming has passed a law to prevent chemical abortion drugs, which I will fight to preserve.
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
All life is precious and sacred, including up to the age of natural death.
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?
The free enterprise should dictate minimum wage, not the government. The Free Market will determine what an employer needs to pay its employees.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
I am opposed to ESG, especially when considering investment of public monies.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
Under NO circumstances should government close churches.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
No individual or business should be required to violate their moral and/or religious beliefs. Nothing should interfere with either the individual or business to operate as they see fit.
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. I think Medicaid is necessary for those in need, but we must be vigilant to guard against fraud.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Under NO circumstances should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations. As an employee, I have had to fight for my own medical freedom against required vaccination, something a free people should never have to do.
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?
Yes, the United States' relationship with Israel is important because God blesses those who bless Israel. Israel has continued to be a solid ally to the United States, a strategic alliance we must maintain.
IMMIGRATION
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Only those who follow established law by applying for citizenship should be allowed to immigrate to, and assimilate in, the United States. if there are cases of true requests for asylum, each case should be handled individually to determine if there has been persecution or human rights violations against the asylum seeker by the country from which he/she came.
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.
Strongly Agree
I am a strong proponent for Parental Rights, including the right of the parents to determine what is best for their child; whether public, private, or homeschool education. The funding should always follow the child.
VALUES
Children have the right to be protected from sexually explicit materials in publicly funded libraries, including school libraries.
Strongly Agree
I strongly support and am actively involved in protecting children by promoting age-appropriate books and materials. Any sexually explicit books or materials should not be available in publicly funded libraries, especially public school libraries.
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from harm, including from gender ideology and bodily mutilation.
Strongly Agree
I strongly support and am actively involved in protecting children from harm, gender ideology, and bodily mutiliation by speaking publicly on their behalf.
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Strongly Agree
I support and publicly speak on behalf of Parental Rights, which includes all decision-making for their minor children.
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
Strongly Disagree
Taxpayer funds should support NO gender services, including gender transition services.
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.
Our country was founded on Judeo-Christian law and values, which are my beliefs and values.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
I am a huge proponent of voter integrity and Photo ID is one additional layer for a valid vote.
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Strongly Disagree
It is imperative that the Electoral College remain entact as a protection for equalizing voter and state representation.
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
No, racism is not a threat to domestic security in the United States. We The People are a united people, we are One. There are some who attempt to divide our unity by claiming racism, and we must fight against such an attack. If a racist attack of accusation is successful where society buys into the lie, the people then become enemies against each other. We must all stand united against such a horrible accusation that racism is a threat to domestic security.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly Disagree
I actively oppose CRT when speaking publicly. CRT is intentionally promoted in institutions across the United States as a way to break down the strength of a united populace.
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
I continue to publicly defend women's rights and the need to protect all women's spaces.
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?
We need a diverse energy supply in the form of many different energy sources.
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?
To protect our God-given rights and protect our borders.
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
Community programs are not law enforcement.
2ND AMENDMENT
Please express your views on the 2nd Amendment.
it is the right of every legal United States citizen to purchase and bear arms and ammunition to defend themselves against threat to life and property.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Strongly Disagree
