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).
Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I am pro-life, however, in the case of rape or incest this may be a circumstance that may warrant an elective abortion.
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
I am not in favor of increasing minimum wage. Minimum wage was established for entry level workers and has never been meant to be a standard for livable wages.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
1) Bring credibility back to the budgeting process. Don't just spend it this year or we won't get it next year mentality. 2) Provide detailed and transparent reporting at all levels of spending. 3) Review funding sources and methodology to ensure the way we are currently funding things is the best method.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Means government should never favor one religion over another or interfere with one's beliefs.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Disagree
I think there are protection of rights in place for a reason. Civil Rights Act and Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
HEALTHCARE
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) Healthcare insurance funded by the government should be available for all who want it, along with private healthcare options.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
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?
It is important to the US for strategic, military, economic, and political reasons. We need allies in this volatile region to keep the war as far from US soil as possible.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Disagree
People should come to this country legally. Can there be some improvements made to that process? Absolutely.
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
I feel the control should be back in the hands of the states and communities. It's a redundancy of duties. Funding can be managed in a different department.
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Strongly Agree
VALUES
Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.
Strongly Agree
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Agree
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Agree
Government has no place in deciding the definition of marriage. My religious beliefs are one man and one woman. However, I also believe that it is not my place to judge others for their choices.
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Agree
We currently have gambling in our state and I'm fine with it; however, my only concern is the increase in gambling addiction with young people especially in sports betting. As someone who has worked in the area of drug testing of students for many years, I have seen the adverse effects of addiction on young people.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe in God & am of the Catholic faith. I value loyalty, compassion, honesty, and kindness. I believe in the power of prayer and doing what's right not what's easy.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
All people should be treated equally and without regard to race, sex or religion.
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
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
I feel it will be a combination of various options for energy - oil, natural gas, nuclear and hydropower all come to mind.

CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
Uphold justice, control and prevent crime, and protect the innocent.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
