OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds or grants from federal, state, or local governments.
Strongly Agree
I support the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, which requires health care providers to provide life-saving treatment for infants who survive an attempted abortion.
Strongly Agree
Under what circumstances should abortion be allowed?
Life of the mother.
ECONOMY
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has a livable income.
Strongly Disagree
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
Taxpayer-funded public education should be guaranteed through college.
Strongly Disagree
What government spending would you reduce in order to balance the budget?
I believe we should begin with stronger audit and enforcement measures to eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse, along with top-to-bottom reviews of every agency and department to increase efficiency and reduce spending.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with taxpayer or public funds.
Neutral
Religious liberty is at risk in the United States and deserves the highest level of protection in the law.
Strongly Agree
I promise to protect the freedom of Christians to share the Gospel and to practice Biblical principles.
Yes
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Government should not interfere with the free exercise of religious belief.
HEALTHCARE
It is the government’s responsibility to ensure everyone has health insurance.
Strongly Disagree
How would you promote healthcare coverage that is adequate, affordable and accessible for all?
Government needs to make sure that any involvement in health care does not make outcomes worse, increase costs for citizens or taxpayers, or create additional burdens for patients and doctors.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The best way to maintain peace is through a strong military.
Strongly Agree
IMMIGRATION
I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Strongly Agree
State and federal funds should be denied to any public or private entity, including but not limited to sanctuary cities, that are not in compliance with immigration laws.
Strongly Agree
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
Legal immigrants who adopt our national values, follow our laws, have not broken our laws, pass the citizenship exam, and complete the rest of the current citizenship process.
VALUES
Judeo-Christian values established a framework of morality that is necessary for our system of limited government.
Strongly Agree
I support adding sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes in non-discrimination laws.

I am a practicing Roman Catholic.

ABOUT YOU
When you consider your views on a wide range of issues from economic and social matters to foreign policy and immigration, which of the following best describes you overall?
Conservative
Please provide publicly available information validating your answer to the previous question.
For years I have volunteered my time to help elect conservatives to office at the local, state, and federal level.
What education or experience qualifies you to hold the office for which you seek election?
I believe we live in a critical time for our great country. If we don’t stand up and fight to put America first, the freedoms and life we have enjoyed will not be here for our kids and for future generations. Southern Indiana needs more strong conservative voices in Indianapolis, voices who will fight for the conservative values we cherish: faith, family, freedom, and hard work. For over 25 years, I’ve volunteered my time and effort in our community, including to help elect conservative Republicans in southern Indiana. I’ve been a Republican long before it was easy or cool. I didn’t become one recently just to win an election. I’m a Republican because I believe in the conservative principles that founded this party and that have made America great (and will make it great again if we get back to them). Because I am not new to this fight, I know the players and the way things work. I believe I can hit the ground running in Indianapolis to work for the conservative values we hold dear. I have earned endorsements from conservative Hoosier leaders like Senator Jim Banks, Congresswoman Erin Houchin, Attorney General Todd Rokita, State Treasurer Daniel Elliott, State Senator Gary Byrne, and State Representative Karen Engleman because they know I will fight in Indianapolis and will be ready to do so on day one.
Have you ever been convicted of a felony or been penalized for sexual misconduct? If so, please explain.
No.
Is there anything else you would like voters to know about you?
Did not answer
JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY
I support the use of Sharia law as a basis for legislation and judicial decisions in the United States.
Strongly Disagree
2ND AMENDMENT
Should teachers be allowed to carry guns at school?
Yes
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
I support the legalization of recreational marijuana.
Strongly Disagree
In priority order, what three areas of legislation do you propose to author or sponsor if elected?
