QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

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

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Elective abortion should not be allowed. Abortion should only be permitted when there is a clear threat to the life and health of the mother.

Does the federal government have a role to play in limiting abortion, and if so what federal steps and/or federal legislation would you support?

Yes, the federal government is supposed to guarantee equal protection under the law for all persons. An unborn child is still a person.


ECONOMY

What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?

I would ban the federal wage tax and the social security tax. The federal government is more than capable of financing social security without taxing Americans. This action will see Americans bring home hundreds to thousands of extra dollars.

Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.

Strongly Disagree

America has given corporations, illegal immigrants, foreign nations, and the Pentagon trillions of dollars. They are doing it now through the cancelation of trillions for the PPP Loans. It will not hurt this nation to cancel the billions in student loan debt since we have canceled the debt of nations that have been hostile to us, and we are caring for illegal immigrants who send billions back to their homelands while taking money from us.

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

Choose not to answer


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

It means that no elected official should use the government to impose their religious beliefs on others, and the government should not promote any religious doctrine.

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Disagree


HEALTHCARE

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

The government nor a school should not require someone to take a vaccine, but they can educate people so individuals can make an informed ch. A private employer can act as they see fit, whether we like it or not.

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.

B


NATIONAL SECURITY

With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.

C

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, Israel is a long ally of the United States of America. However, that does not mean the United States should cosign any and all actions by Israel.

What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?

I believe the glaring lack of support for our vetrerans is the primary cause of the decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention.


IMMIGRATION

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

Strongly Agree

Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?

As of now, there needs to be a moratorium on immigration to the United States of America. The only exception needs to be for individuals from countries that we have decided are in need of refuge; those who are married to Americans; and those in areas where there is a shortage after corporations have shown beyond the shadow of a reasonable doubt that they have done their due diligence to fill the need with Americans. All these individuals will be law abiding.


EDUCATION

I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.

Strongly Agree

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Agree


VALUES

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.

Choose not to answer

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

Strongly Agree

Taxpayer funds should be used to provide gender transition services.

Strongly Disagree

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

Did not answer


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

The Electoral College should be abolished.

Neutral

I have to study this issue more.


EQUALITY

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

Choose not to answer

I have taught for 20 years in public schools, and I have never heard of CRT until recently. I am not sure if this premise accurately describes CRT, and I am not even sure of what CRT is so I will refrain from speaking on this matter.

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

Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.

Neutral

I belive more research is needed on this issue. There is a lot of conjecture on this matter. I will need to conduct further research myself.

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?

I live in a coastal area, and I believe tidal energy holds a mass amount of potential that is overlooked.


ABOUT YOU

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?

Lean Conservative

None of these labels neatly describe me since I take issues as they come.

What do you think is the general purpose of government?

The government's role is secure a more secure and perfect union, and that is done by upholding the highest standard of justice, and by supporting the populace from whom the government gets its power.

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


JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY

The Supreme Court should be reformed to include more seats.

Disagree

I believe if we do this then it will invalidate the Supreme Court since any party in power will simply add more seats to get a court that fits their ideology.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.

Disagree

I support addressing the issues that are causes of crimes. This does not involve redirecting funds from police departments to community programs, but also funding community programs while supporting police officers, and holding rogue officers accountable.


2ND AMENDMENT

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

I believe in keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals and those who have exhibited a clear and present threat to themselves and the public.
