I have no problem with Indiana's current restriction on abortion. I am a Catholic mom and I spent time being an advocate for women controlling their destinies by understanding adult behaviors have adult consequences. Over the last 35 years, I have seen women carry the stain and pain of abortion. Grieving for children they opted to abort, taking permanent solutions to temporary problems. I have high school friends who became teenage moms and some who opted for abortion. Many years later, the young moms stand by their decisions, they made it through the hardships, whispers and difficulties. I also have wept with women who, 50 years after abortions continue to have pain in their hearts. And I carry the sadness of a friend who was unable to conceive because abortion complications. I believe we have to evolve from pro-life to pro-living and ensuring state funded resources for unexpected pregnancies are fully funded--WIC, SECTION 8, INDIANA DIAPER BANKS, ADOPTION SERVICES. We are judged by how we treat those in need.

I believe there is a meaningful distinction between marriage as defined and governed by religious institutions and civil law relationships recognized by the state. Faith communities should be free to uphold their own doctrines regarding sacramental marriage. At the same time, I support civil legal frameworks that allow consenting adults to establish protections such as tenancy rights, survivorship, inheritance, and shared asset recognition under the law.

Neutral

Religious liberty is firmly protected under the U.S. Constitution and has been reinforced in recent years through court decisions. The more complex challenge today is fostering genuine religious tolerance as it intersects with LGBTQ rights, healthcare policy, and the delivery of public services. Navigating these issues requires balancing First Amendment protections with equal treatment under the law, ensuring that both religious freedom and civil rights are respected.

Yes

It means that the government operates from a position of religious neutrality, and the first amendment guarantees one's right to practice their individual faith.

Strongly Agree

I am a proud U.S. Air Force veteran, and I believe a technologically advanced, agile, and globally ready military is the strongest deterrent to conflict and the surest path to preserving peace.

Disagree

It is the government's responsibility to ensure everyone has ACCESS to health insurance that meet their needs be it private, public or state-funded.

I support using demographic data, chronic disease trends, and local provider access to develop regional healthcare plans that prioritize prevention, preserve long-term health, and ensure access to the most effective treatments for serious and catastrophic illnesses. We must modernize primary care by expanding telehealth options for routine visits, streamlining medication management for urgent needs, and reserving specialists for complex cases. By reducing unnecessary prior authorizations and inefficient referral requirements, we can deliver faster, more cost-effective care. I also support expanding Physician Assistant and Nurse Practitioner training programs while encouraging physicians to pursue advanced specialization where shortages exist. These views are shaped by 18 years working in healthcare and closely observing how patients navigate the system.

I would advocate for a rigorous review of government contracts and outside vendor agreements to ensure taxpayer dollars are used responsibly and that clearly defined performance metrics are met before funds are continued or renewed.

Immigration policy should uphold and enforce existing U.S. laws while welcoming individuals who seek to contribute productively to our economy and communities and who are willing to follow the legal process. Legal immigration plays an important role in strengthening our workforce, innovation, and long-term growth. At the same time, it is essential that our immigration system maintain strong vetting standards to protect public safety and bar/deport those who are of detriment to our country.

Yes

Teachers who volunteer to help protect their schools should be fully vetted, extensively trained by local law enforcement, and subject to thorough background checks — particularly in areas where law enforcement response times may be delayed. At the same time, the long-term goal for every school should be the presence of a dedicated School Resource Officer, ensuring that trained law enforcement professionals are on campus to safeguard students and staff.

To protect public safety while preserving due process, extreme risk protection orders can serve as an important tool to temporarily limit access to firearms for individuals who pose a credible danger to themselves or others, including those in severe mental health or domestic crisis situations. Strengthening coordination among families, medical professionals, and law enforcement can improve early intervention and help prevent violence before it occurs.

Strongly Disagree

1. Establish standardized statewide procedures for drivers during traffic stops to enhance officer and driver safety, recognizing that traffic stops remain one of the most dangerous duties in law enforcement. 2. Eliminate property taxes for Hoosiers age 70 and older whose primary residence is valued under $100,000, providing meaningful relief to low-income seniors on fixed incomes. 3. Enact an Online Exploitation and Coercion Prevention Act to strengthen penalties for sextortion and digital grooming of minors, clearly define online coercion, require rapid reporting and preservation of digital evidence by platforms, and safeguard the privacy of child victims in judicial proceedings.

Strongly Disagree

There is no place in the United States of America for the use of Sharia Law as the basis for legislation or judicial decisions.

Conservative

My conservative values are reflected not just in words, but in record and action. Through my voting history on the Hamilton East Public Library Board and the Fishers City Council, I have consistently supported fiscal responsibility, transparency, public safety, and local control. My active involvement with the Fishers GOP and the Indiana and National Federation of Republican Women demonstrates my commitment to advancing principled, limited-government policies. I have long supported veterans and first responders, honoring service and strengthening our communities. As a 19-year member of St. Matthew Catholic Church, a former Sunday School teacher, and a Promise to Keep mentor, my faith and belief in personal responsibility, family, and community stewardship guide both my leadership and my service. I share my Conservative views publicly as member of the American Enterprise Institute and as an Ambassador for Project 21 (supporting the Heritage Foundation).

I am qualified to serve in the Indiana State Senate because I meet the constitutional requirements and bring proven leadership experience. As a Fishers City Councilor, I have worked directly on budgets, public safety, infrastructure, and responsible growth, giving me hands-on legislative experience at the local level. My background in real estate and small business provides real-world insight into property taxes, housing affordability, and economic development. As a veteran, I understand firsthand the values of service, discipline, and commitment to community. Combined with my community leadership and dedication to fiscal responsibility, I am prepared to represent our district with practical experience and forward-thinking solutions.

NO

In the race for Senate District 31, I am the only candidate who is a veteran, an elected Republican serving in a city-wide capacity, and who brings real municipal-level governance experience. Voters should know that I offer proven legislative leadership, fiscal discipline, and a deep commitment to service. I have worked on balanced budgets, public safety, and responsible growth at the local level, and I understand firsthand how policy decisions impact families, homeowners, and small businesses. My broad background in local government, real estate, small business, and community leadership gives me a practical, well-rounded perspective that allows me to evaluate policy from both the public and private sector lens. As a veteran and long-time community leader, I lead with integrity, accountability, and a firm belief that government should operate efficiently and always in service to the people. I'm tough, responsible and relatable!

I am a practicing Roman Catholic, and my faith shapes both my convictions and my character. I am pro-life and believe in the dignity of every human person from natural conception to natural death. The Golden Rule and the Ten Commandments serve as steady guideposts in how I lead, make decisions, and treat others. I completed a faith-based MBA program, where I saw firsthand that faith can be foundational to business, leadership, and relationships without compromising excellence or results — in fact, it can strengthen them. My faith is central to how I operate and how I interpret the world, grounding me in principle, purpose, and service.

Strongly Disagree

ABSOLUTELY NOT Every American legal voter should have a government-issued identification. How can you bank, buy alcohol, establish utilities, prove your identity without a photo identification?

Strongly Disagree

Racially motivated extremists who seek to harm individuals, destroy property, manipulate institutions, or destabilize communities are a clear threat to public safety and domestic security. Our nation’s history includes painful examples of extremist movements using racism to spread fear and division. At the same time, one of the most serious challenges facing our country today is the broader erosion of respect for the rule of law, for law enforcement officers who serve honorably.
