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
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I don't believe elective abortion should ever be allowed.
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.
Strongly Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
It's a fine line; when we see other religions try to infiltrate our governments and campuses, it illustrates the necessity of keeping certain elements separate and free. I believe our government is meant to protect our freedoms to worship, and as a Christian I want to continue and uphold those protections.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
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, they are our close ally in the Middle East.
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.
C Our foster youth and veterans, who I advocate for, need these programs. These programs should be only given to documented American citizens in need. Private insurance should remain the primary resource for the average family.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
That would be an invasion of privacy and an unnecessary, expensive government system.
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
As we've seen California and New York raise the minimum wage, we see that it's placing too large of a burden onto our small, locally owned businesses. I believe there should be a minimum wage, but there should be a cap as well.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Agree
When not encroaching on the greater resources of our state, like water, as we've seen with crypto mining and AI datacenters.
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
-Redirect funding to the committed areas (foster care, veterans services) -Review / hold accountable the systems that are using government funds -Reduce spending where it isn't helping
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Disagree
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Strongly Agree
That poses threats to our educational systems and priorities. There is no reason to allow this, but many to argue against it.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?
Upholding human dignity. Protecting communities and providing justice to survivors. Providing access to fair trial.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
It's time for the government to intervene and stop the exploitation of children online through significant fines and shutting down uncompliant sites.
Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Common sense laws, that allow for the freedom to own, conceal carry, and protect one's family and property.
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
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
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
While there is an obligation of communities to protect children and families, when life is going well and family is thriving it is the responsibility and right of the parent to direct their children's health and educational well-being.
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly 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.
Strongly Agree
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am a devout Christian, following the Bible and believing in the life, death, and resurrection of Christ.
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
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
We are seeing crisis created by man, like the repercussions of the crypto mining and AI Datacenters. We need to protect our resources without causing political chaos or divisive rhetoric around "climate".
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Natural resources
