I believe that human life is precious. Every effort should be made to protect both the mother and the unborn child. In rare and tragic circumstances where a mother’s life is in immediate danger, physicians must be able to act to save her life. These situations should be guided by medical judgment, compassion, and respect for life, not politics.

Yes

Separation of church and state means the government should not establish or favor a state religion, while fully protecting every citizen’s First Amendment right to practice their faith freely. As a Christian and a public servant, it is important to govern according to the Constitution, ensuring religious liberty for all and keeping those First Amendment protections at the forefront of every decision.

To promote health care coverage that is adequate, affordable, and accessible, we must address the real problem; skyrocketing costs driven by excessive regulation and government interference. As a health care professional, I have seen patients leave Indiana to seek treatment in other states where pricing is more affordable. This is bad for Hoosiers, bad for businesses, and bad for our state’s economy. I would love to see state level income tax breaks for individuals with high insurance premiums to help offset some of the costs, making health care more affordable and keeping patients here at home.

Strongly Disagree

Government works best when it gets out of the way and allows businesses to grow, jobs to be created, and people to succeed through hard work, not government mandates.

As a business owner, I know budgets must be balanced. We can do so without raising taxes by cutting wasteful spending and programs that do not benefit taxpayers.

Strongly Agree

The United States should welcome immigrants who follow the law, respect our Constitution, and come through the legal immigration process. Immigration should be based on lawful entry, background checks, and a system that prioritizes public safety, national security, and the ability to contribute positively to our country.

Yes

Law-abiding citizens have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. Public safety is best protected by enforcing existing laws, keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals and those legally prohibited from owning them, and focusing on crime prevention and mental health, rather than placing new restrictions on responsible gun owners.

Strongly Disagree

1. Fiscal responsibility and tax relief – Legislation that cuts wasteful spending, protects taxpayers, and keeps taxes low for families and small businesses. 2. Public safety and law enforcement support – Policies that strengthen law enforcement, hold violent criminals accountable, and keep our communities safe. 3. Economic growth and health care affordability – Reforms that reduce unnecessary regulations, encourage job creation, and lower health care costs while keeping Hoosiers working and receiving care in Indiana.

Strongly Disagree

Very Conservative

I identify as Very Conservative. Publicly available information validating this includes my service as a Tipton County Commissioner, where my record reflects strong conservative principles such as fiscal responsibility, limited government, and opposition to raising taxes. My campaign platform and public statements further demonstrate very conservative positions on economic policy, social issues, and protection of constitutional rights.

My experience as a Tipton County Commissioner has prepared me well for the responsibilities of this office. In that role, I have worked on budgeting, fiscal oversight, infrastructure, and policy decisions that directly impact residents and businesses. I also bring 30 years of experience in the healthcare field, where I have seen firsthand how policy decisions affect patients, families, and frontline workers. That background has strengthened my commitment to accountability, problem-solving, and service to the community, along with a strong understanding of how government decisions affect taxpayers at the local level.

No

I always say, “the best government starts at people’s level.” I am committed to serving with integrity, common sense, and respect for the people I represent. I believe government works best when it is transparent, fiscally responsible, and focused on the needs of families, workers, and small businesses. I will continue to listen, work hard, and stand up for our values while always putting the people of this district first.

Strongly Agree

Strongly Disagree

Existing civil rights laws already protect all individuals from discrimination, and adding additional protected classes risks government overreach, increased litigation, and unintended consequences for free speech, religious liberty, and small businesses.

I am a Christian, and my faith guides my values of integrity, service, compassion, and respect for others. It shapes my commitment to serving my community and governing with humility and responsibility.

Any ideology that promotes violence or undermines public safety is a threat to domestic security. The appropriate response is equal justice under the law, strong law enforcement, and protecting the constitutional rights of every American.
