Elective abortion should be allowed when: - The pregnancy threatens the mother's life or health. - The fetus has severe, non-viable anomalies. - In cases of rape or incest. - When the woman's mental health is at significant risk.

RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

- **Government Neutrality**: The state should not favor or disfavor any religion, ensuring freedom of worship without interference. - **No State Religion**: Preventing the establishment of an official religion or religious tests for public office. - **Personal Liberty**: Individuals are free to practice their faith without government intrusion, while public policy remains secular. - **Education and Public Life**: Religious teachings should not dictate public education or law

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.

C


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.

Israel is the United States only true ally in the Middle East.

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

- **Cultural Disconnect**: Fewer Americans have military connections, leading to less interest in service. - **Public Trust**: Events like the Afghanistan withdrawal have impacted public perception and trust in military leadership. - **Policy Changes**: Adjustments like the Blended Retirement System and perceptions of military policies affect recruitment. - **Demographic Shifts**: Changing demographics and fewer eligible recruits due to health or legal issues.
