OTHER INFORMATION
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?
In cases of rape or incest
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?
No they should not have any role in abortions. I believe that should be up to each state
ECONOMY
What actions would you take that would allow Americans to retain more of their income and wealth?
I would abolish the Irs and start reducing the size of the federal government and their agencies.
Student loan forgiveness unfairly shifts the financial burden to those not responsible for student debt.
Strongly Agree
It also takes the responsibility factors away from the student. Such as you signed a contract and have to honor it. Also it takes the skin out of the game for the student to excel and to use the knowledge they have gained
Should environmental and social issues, like ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ratings, be used as criteria in deciding where to invest public monies?
Yes
As long as the people are in control of the ratings
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Separation of church and state means that the government cannot establish a religion and force the people to accept it.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
I don't believe the government should have control over private businesses. The beauty of capitalism is if as a customer you don't agree with an owners moral or religious beliefs then you can find a business you agree with. And as the owner of a business you shouldn't have to provide a service at the cost of your beliefs or morals.
HEALTHCARE
Under what circumstances (if any) should a government, school, or employer be allowed to require vaccinations?
I don't believe a government or public school has the power or rights to demand vacinations.if a private business does and the employees choose not to work for that business anymore that would be up to the owner of said business
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 I don't believe in government funded. It is taxpayer funded which then shifts the burden to someone else. I do believe that government should offer options like Medicare and medicaid.
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 because we are not the world's police. And we are also borrowing money from China and therefore shouldn't be giving money away to other countries. I have seen where usually the guy in the middle of a conflict is hated by both sides.
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 because other than America Israel is one of the true free countries left.
What are the causes of decline in U.S. military recruitment and retention?
No patriotism because the public schools are teaching that America is bad. And the decline of the American family where the father teaches patriotism and Capitalism
IMMIGRATION
The U.S. should do more to physically secure the southern border.
Strongly Agree
We are a nation of immigrants yes but the immigrants came in legally. Followed our rule of law. And grabbed on to the American dream. Now they are demanding that we become more like the country they just left.
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Only those who enter legally want to become citizens and will become productive members of our society.
EDUCATION
I support school choice, including voucher programs, tax credits, charter schools, private schools, and home schools.
Strongly Agree
I believe the federal government should not be in control of the school curriculum at all.
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly 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.
Strongly Agree
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
I don't believe taxpayers should be burdened with others decisions.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a Protestant that believes Jesus is my Lord and Savior. I believe God is the judge of our Souls.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
You have to show I'd for everything else. Know one minds showing I'd to purchase alcohol or other products.
The Electoral College should be abolished.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
I agree with Critical Race Theory (CRT) which asserts that the institutions in the United States are fundamentally racist.
Strongly 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.
Strongly Agree
And woman shouldn't be able to participate in men's sports
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Strongly Disagree
Climate change is a government over reach.
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Fossil fuels
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?
Very Conservative
I believe in limited government.
What do you think is the general purpose of government?
To serve and protect we the people and to abide by the constitution
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.
Strongly Disagree
The Supreme Court justices are supposed to be the most un biased people and are supposed to make sure that every law written abides by the constitution. They are the check and balance of the government. They are not supposed to legislate. So I don't believe that we need more people on America's payroll
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
I support redirecting funds from police departments to community programs.
Strongly Disagree
I think the funds should be used to educate and supply the police
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
As we have seen with the states with the strictest gun laws have the worst crime rates. Criminals don't follow laws so gun laws weaken the law abiding citizens defenses and strengthens the criminal. In this country we are are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty so any gun laws say your guilty without proof
