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 Disagree
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
The decision to have an abortion is deeply personal and should be made between a patient and their healthcare provider.
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
The decision to have an abortion is deeply personal and should be made between a patient and their healthcare provider.
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?
I believe the federal government should play a role in protecting, not limiting, abortion rights. The right to choose should be safeguarded at the national level to ensure that no state can strip individuals of their reproductive freedoms. I support federal legislation that would codify the woman's right to choose into law and prevent states from imposing harmful restrictions on abortion access. We must uphold the fundamental right to make personal healthcare decisions and ensure that safe, legal abortion remains accessible to everyone, no matter where they live.
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
Did not answer
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Did not answer
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Did not answer
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Did not answer
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Did not answer
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
Did not answer
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.
Healthcare funded by the government should be available for all who want it while still allowing private healthcare options. Access to affordable healthcare is a fundamental right, and a public option would ensure no one is left behind. At the same time, maintaining private options allows individuals to choose the coverage that best fits their needs. This approach strikes the right balance between expanding access to care and preserving choice in the healthcare system.
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.
Did not answer

Did not answer
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
Did not answer
IMMIGRATION

Did not answer
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Did not answer
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Disagree
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Disagree
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.
Strongly Disagree
