QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Agree
ECONOMY
I support using taxpayer funds to lobby the state legislature and/or U.S. Congress.
Disagree
It is the responsibility of city government to provide subsidized housing at taxpayer expense.
Disagree
Property taxes should be abolished.
Neutral
I have lived in other states with state income tax and even city income tax. I am open to the idea of abolishing property taxes, but right now it works for Texas until someone comes up with a better solution. I have not seen that yet.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Government should not discriminate against individuals, organizations, or business owners who affirm marriage as between one man and one woman.

I am a Christian and faithfully attend church. I enjoy digging into Bible studies, singing loudly during worship, and fellowshipping with other believers. My faith in Christ is everything to me.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

What do you think is the general purpose of government?
The government is established to protect our freedoms. In America, at the local level, the municipality is to observe and adhere to the laws of the county and state, as well as federal government, but its main job to is ensure a quality of life for citizens that ensures the path of least resistance and as much personal freedom as possible. Financially, the role of the government is to protect and defend, provide basic services and infrastructure, but to do so in a fiscally responsible way.
