QUESTIONNAIRE*

RIGHT TO LIFE

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Only to save the life of the mother.

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 abortion is legal, there should be doctor supervision.

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.

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?

When minimum wages go up so does the cost of goods and services.

Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?

No

Choose the best company for the job without ESG ratings.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Under what circumstances can government close churches?

Churches were closed for the public health crisis of COVID. I don't like to see the government take away the control of the people.

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.

C - FICA taxes pay for Medicare.

Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?

I do not believe in mandating unproven vaccines, but they have been proven to help control Small Pox, MMR, Tetnus, etc.


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 two countries have had a relationship since 1948 and this helps keep the Middle East more stable than it would be without this relationship.


IMMIGRATION

The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.

Strongly Agree


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.

Disagree

Having this happen would destroy the public school system and without public school, many children would not receive an education.


VALUES

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

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.

I believe in one true God with Jesus as his Son.

Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.

Strongly Agree


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 does exist, however everything that racism is blamed on is not always true.

I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.

Strongly Disagree

Some institutions may have racist tendencies, but not all as the question insinuates.

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

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?

Presently nuclear power is the most reliable source for electricity.


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 enhance life for the public good.

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?

Conservative


2ND AMENDMENT

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

I believe in the 2nd amendment.

Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?

Yes

If they have been through the proper training and have a conceal and carry license, with permission from the school district, this could be beneficial in the case of an active shooter in the building. I leave this one up to each individual school district to determine which is best for them.


OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.

Strongly Disagree

This is a gateway drug to other drugs. If this was a prescription, like many other drugs, I might possible support that, but not recreational.
