QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

I believe every human life has inherent dignity and deserves protection. Government’s role should be to defend the most vulnerable while supporting mothers, families, and alternatives that value life at every stage.

The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.

Strongly Agree

Human life has inherent dignity regardless of how it is created. Embryos are human beings and should not be intentionally destroyed. Ethical standards should respect life while supporting families who seek to build one.

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

I believe elective abortion should not be permitted. Human life deserves protection, and public policy should prioritize the dignity of both mother and child while supporting alternatives that value life.

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

Taxpayer dollars should not fund organizations that perform abortions. Public funds should support healthcare that protects life and serves families without subsidizing abortion.

The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.

Strongly Agree

Federal law should be enforced as written. The interstate distribution of abortion inducing drugs raises serious legal and safety concerns, and Congress should uphold laws that protect life and ensure accountability.


ECONOMY

Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.

Strongly Agree

Free enterprise and private property create opportunity, innovation, and upward mobility. A strong economy depends on individuals being able to work, invest, and build without excessive government interference.

People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.

Strongly Disagree

Raising taxes does not create prosperity. Working families are helped by economic growth, better jobs, and lower costs, not by expanding government dependency or punishing success.

The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.

Strongly Agree

Washington’s spending is unsustainable. Reducing wasteful and unnecessary spending is essential to protecting taxpayers, strengthening the economy, and ensuring future generations are not burdened with debt.

List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.

• Stronger congressional oversight of federal agencies • Eliminating duplicative and outdated programs • Reforming procurement and contracting abuses • Reducing unnecessary bureaucracy and overhead • Ending programs that fail to deliver results for taxpayers


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

Americans should not be forced by the government to violate their sincerely held moral or religious beliefs. Religious liberty and freedom of conscience are fundamental rights that deserve strong legal protection.

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

Separation of church and state means the government should not establish or control religion, while protecting the free exercise of faith. It was never intended to remove religious belief from public life, but to prevent government interference with conscience and worship.


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.

I support option C. Medicaid and Medicare should remain available for those who depend on them, but no additional taxpayer funded healthcare programs are necessary. Reforms should focus on affordability, competition, and patient choice rather than expanding government run healthcare.

The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

Strongly Disagree

Medical decisions and health information are deeply personal. Government tracking of individuals based on medical conditions raises serious privacy and civil liberty concerns and risks misuse. Healthcare policy should respect patient confidentiality and individual freedom.


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.

I support option B. The United States should selectively help countries working to grow democracy and resist tyranny when it clearly serves our national interest. American leadership must be disciplined, accountable, and focused on supporting allies while avoiding open ended or unfocused conflicts.

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Strongly Agree

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious threats through military expansion, cyber attacks, intellectual property theft, and economic coercion. The United States must respond with strength by protecting national security, defending our supply chains, supporting allies, and holding the CCP accountable.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

Yes. Israel is a critical ally and the only democracy in the Middle East. From an America First perspective, our relationship matters because it advances U.S. national security through shared values, intelligence and security cooperation, regional stability, and countering terrorism and hostile regimes. Supporting Israel strengthens American interests and our credibility with allies.

Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.

Strongly Agree

Islamic terrorism poses a real threat through extremist groups that target Americans and our allies. The United States must confront terrorism decisively while respecting religious freedom and rejecting the false idea that extremism represents all Muslims.


IMMIGRATION

Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?

The United States should welcome immigrants through a lawful, orderly process that prioritizes legal entry, background checks, and respect for the rule of law. Immigration should serve the national interest, support families and the economy, and be fair to those who follow the rules.

I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.

Strongly Disagree

Sanctuary policies undermine the rule of law and public safety by limiting cooperation with law enforcement. Immigration laws should be enforced consistently, and local governments should not obstruct federal law or shield criminal activity.


EDUCATION

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.

Strongly Agree

Education decisions should be made closest to students and parents, with clear guardrails. States set standards, protect parental rights, and ensure accountability, while courts and elections provide checks when local boards overreach. This approach reduces federal bureaucracy while preserving transparency and responsibility.

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree

Foreign government funding creates conflicts of interest and security risks. American education should remain independent, transparent, and accountable to the American people.


VALUES

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.

Strongly Agree

Children deserve protection and care, not irreversible decisions they cannot fully understand or consent to. Adults have a responsibility to safeguard a child’s physical and mental well-being and allow them to mature without medical or social pressure to transition.

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

Marriage, as a religious institution, is defined by faith and tradition as the union of one man and one woman. Government should not redefine religious doctrine or compel belief, while all individuals should be treated with dignity under the law.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am a Christian, and my faith informs my values of service, responsibility, humility, and respect for others. I believe in the dignity of every person, the importance of family, and the call to serve my community with integrity and accountability.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

Secure elections require basic safeguards. Photo identification helps ensure that each lawful vote counts and protects the integrity of the process, while still allowing states to provide reasonable access for eligible voters.


EQUALITY

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

Women’s sports and sex specific spaces exist to ensure fairness, safety, and privacy based on biological reality. Allowing biological males into women’s sports or spaces undermines those protections and harms women and girls. Law and policy should clearly preserve sex based distinctions.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?

Nuclear energy is the most reliable long term source to meet growing electricity demand, providing constant baseload power and grid stability. I support Texas’s all of the above energy approach, where nuclear is expanded alongside dependable sources


ABOUT YOU

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.

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?

Conservative

My views are consistently conservative across economic, social, and national security issues. I support limited government, individual liberty, free enterprise, strong national defense, and the protection of life and religious freedom, while emphasizing accountability and responsible governance.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.

Strongly Agree

Government has a responsibility to protect children from online exploitation by enforcing existing laws, holding predators accountable, and ensuring platforms take reasonable steps to prevent abuse. Protecting children should always be a priority.


2ND AMENDMENT

What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?

The Second Amendment protects an individual right to keep and bear arms. Public safety is best served by enforcing existing laws, prosecuting violent criminals, and addressing mental health, not by imposing new restrictions on law-abiding citizens. Government should focus on criminals and the root causes of crime, not lawful gun owners.
