QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
To save the life of the mother. It is imperative that all efforts be made to save the lives of both the mother and the child.
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.
Choose not to answer
Do not support
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Agree
I support 'aid in dying' laws which legalize assisted suicide and euthanasia.
Disagree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Under what circumstances can government close churches?
I do not believe there is one
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
All U.S. allies are important; however, none are more important than the constitutional foundation of America and the American people.
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.
The medical system in America, overall, is broken and is in need of constitutional reform.
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
No vaccines or injection should be administered without the consent of the recipient or their parents.
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?
Government should refrain from involving themselves in the private sector economy.
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
No
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Agree
The U.S. should secure all their borders and revise their immigration policies.
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.
Neutral
The education of a child is the responsibility of the parents and the choices they make. Parents need unfettered options to do what they feel is best for their children. Those who use the education funding supplied by taxpayers also have an obligation to those taxpayers to use those funds effectively and efficiently to educate the children.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
I support constitutional carry. This alone increases public safety. Under the current situation, you should be an American, not an illegal alien or a convicted violent criminal.
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
However, this is the decision of the local school board. People have a right to defend themselves and the lives of others, especially the most vulnerable. With the right to carry comes a great deal of responsibility one must be willing to accept. Many are not. It is not for everyone.
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 secure the rights of the people
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
Specifically, a constitutional conservative and defender of individual liberty.
VALUES
Children are the most vulnerable members of society and must be protected from abuse, including gender ideology, grooming, and bodily mutilation.
Agree
Parents should have the right to make decisions for their minor children.
Agree
Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.
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.
Agree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Christian, believer in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Leave a place better than you found it.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Disagree
States should join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which makes the Electoral College irrelevant.
Disagree
EQUALITY
Is racism a threat to domestic security in the United States? Why or why not?
No. The use of the word "racism" has become weaponized to intentionally divide this country and cause havoc where there is none. The definition of the word racism has also become subjective.
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
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.
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.
Government has gotten too big and costly in many ways. It is the responsibility and duty of us all to be good stewards of the land, air, and water. That care comes from the heart of doing what is right regardless of the time and cost. Wisdom is seldom ever in a hurry. The people who live in these areas should always come first and their concerns should always matter.
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Oil and Gas. However, individual people should invest in their own energy sources, alternate or otherwise, for greater independence.
