Neutral

Life begins at conception but I believe in a woman's right to choose. This is a decision that should be made by a patient and their doctor. Instead I think we need to focus on education and women's health in order to prevent abortion.

Disagree

Planned Parenthood offers many services that pertain to women's health. These services are crucial and need to be funded.

I support appropriate medical care for any infant born alive. However I would want to evaluate the specific legislation, its medical implications, and existing law before committing to a particular proposal. I would also want to hear from doctors for their opinion on the matter.

I believe abortion is a deeply personal medical decision that should primarily be made by a woman in consultation with her doctor, not politicians. I support access to abortion, particularly in cases of rape, incest, threats to the life or health of the mother, and serious fetal conditions. I support this while supporting policies that reduce unintended pregnancies and provide meaningful resources for mothers and families.

Agree

It is the governments responsibility to set the conditions for people who work hard to be able to afford the basics (housing, food, healthcare, utilities, and transportation). While it is not the governments job to guarantee wealth I do believe it should address the barriers that make it more difficult for working families to get ahead.

Agree

Free enterprise and private economy are essential to provide individuals, families, and small businesses the chance to succeed. Government should protect those rights while ensuring fair competition and preventing abuse.

Neutral

Public education should provide every student with a strong foundation, regardless of their income. College and career training should be affordable and accessible, but I do not believe taxpayers should be required to fully fund a four year college education.

I would reduce unnecessary administrative spending, duplicative programs, and ineffective incentives. Government should prioritize programs that are positive to tax payers. for example education, public safety, funding prosecutors and infrastructure.

Disagree

I believe in religious freedom including the right of faith communities to define marriage according to their beliefs. However marriage should remain equally available to consenting adults under the law.

Agree

Religious liberty is a fundamental constitutional right and deserves protection. That protection should apply equally to people of every faith and to those who choose not to practice in any religion.

Yes

Yes, Christians have the right to freely practice and share their faith, just as Americans of any faith have the right to practice and express their beliefs.

Separation of church and state means government should neither establish nor prohibit religion. People should be free to practice their faith and allow it to inform their values, while government represents and protects people of all faiths.

Agree

Everyone should have access to affordable healthcare coverage. Government should help remove barriers and lower costs while preserving patient choice and encouraging competition.

I would focus on lowering healthcare and prescription costs, expanding access in underserved communities, strengthening mental health services, and increasing transparency.

Agree

A strong military is essential to deterring threats and protecting our country. Lasting peace also requires effective diplomacy, strong alliances, and responsible leadership.

Neutral

Border security is important, but there is no one size fits all solution. We should use physical barriers where they make sense. We should also work towards fixing the issues in our immigration system.

Disagree

Immigration laws should be enforced, but withholding all public funds can harm residents and essential services that have nothing to do with immigration enforcement.

The United States should welcome people who follow our immigration process. These people could be workers, families, students, and people seeking refuge. I do not believe that your country of origin, sex, or race should have anything to do with coming to the United States.

Agree

No one should face unfair discrimination because of who they are.

My faith in Christianity teaches me to treat others with compassion, dignity, and respect. It teaches me to serve my community and to stand up for people who need a voice.

Disagree

Voting should be secure and accessible. I support reasonable identification requirements while ensuring every citizen can vote without unnecessary cost or barriers. I think we need to fix our voter education in order to remind people to bring their state ID with them.

Strongly Disagree

I support maintaining the Electoral College while ensuring every eligible voter has a meaningful opportunity to participate. Our system should continue to balance the voices of both highly populated states and less populated states.

Yes. Racism can contribute to division, extremism, hate crimes, and violence. This makes it a legitimate concern for domestic security. We should confront these threats while protecting constitutional rights and ensuring every American is treated equally under the law.

Somewhat Conservative

I believe in fiscal responsibility, public safety, individual liberty, and limited government. At the same time, I believe good government requires practical solutions, compassion, and a willingness to work across party lines.

My positions are available on my campaign website and social media accounts.

My education in political science and sociology has given me a strong foundation in government, public policy, research, and the communities the government serves.

No

I am running not only for myself but also survivors of sexual assault. I know it will be an uphill battle to create change in a system that failed me but I will fight to do what is right.

Strongly Disagree

American law and judicial decisions should be grounded in the United States Constitution and our federal and state laws, not any religious legal system. This applies to all religions equally.

No

Teachers should be able to focus on educating students. School security should primarily be the responsibility of properly trained law enforcement or security personnel, while schools invest in prevention, mental health resources, and emergency preparedness.

I support the Second Amendment while also supporting measures that keep firearms out of the hands of violent offenders and others who are legally prohibited from possessing them. Gun policy should focus on enforcing existing laws, due process, responsible ownership, and improving public safety.

Neutral

I am open to looking into legalization, but any changes to the law should carefully address public safety, impaired driving, youth access, regulation, and the experiences of other states. Otherwise I would be open to legalization.

1. Sexual violence prevention and survivor support: Strengthen prevention education, improve reporting processes, expand survivor services, and ensure victims can access meaningful support and justice. 2. Affordability: Address rising housing, utility, healthcare, and everyday costs while protecting taxpayers. 3. Education and Mental Health: Strengthen our public schools, support our teachers, and expand access to mental health services to Hoosiers.
