OTHER INFORMATION

QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Strongly Agree

I believe abortion is morally wrong, and taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood. Government funds should support health care services that do not involve ending a human life.

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Elective abortion should generally not be allowed. The only exception I support is when the mother’s life is at risk.

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

I strongly believe that human life is sacred and should be protected from the moment of conception until natural death. Laws and government policies should reflect this principle and work to preserve life at all stages.

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

Strongly Agree

I believe that human embryos, even those created through artificial methods, are human life and deserve protection from intentional destruction.

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

Strongly Agree

I believe that the Comstock Act should be enforced to prevent the interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs. Laws that protect human life from conception should be upheld.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

To me, separation of church and state means the government should not force people by law to follow a particular religion, like the way the Church of England did in the past. It does not mean religion has no place in public life, and I believe we should teach biblical history in schools because it is an important part of world and American history.

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

Strongly Disagree

I believe it is up to the individual or business to decide what they want to do. No one should be forced to provide services if it goes against their moral or religious beliefs.


NATIONAL SECURITY

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 presents serious threats to the United States through its military expansion, cyber operations targeting government and private systems, theft of intellectual property and trade secrets, and efforts to gain strategic economic influence worldwide. Addressing these threats is critical to protecting U.S. national security, technological innovation, and economic interests.

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

The United States relationship with Israel is important because Israel is a strategic ally in the Middle East and the region’s only democracy. Israel provides critical intelligence, military technology, and defense cooperation that strengthen U.S. national security. Maintaining this partnership helps promote regional stability and protect American interests.


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.

C I believe Medicaid and Medicare should be available for people who truly need it, but able-bodied adults should be working to pay for their own healthcare whenever possible. The system should be affordable and transparent so everyone can access care without relying on government funding, while still providing a safety net for those in genuine need.

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

Strongly Disagree

I do not believe the government should maintain a database of individuals’ medical conditions. Personal medical information should remain private, and the focus should be on improving healthcare efficiency without creating more government oversight.


ECONOMY

What is your position on the minimum wage?

I believe the minimum wage is primarily a state issue. In Georgia, I support setting the minimum wage at $12 per hour to help ensure workers earn a livable wage while keeping businesses competitive.

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

Strongly Agree

I believe that free enterprise and the right to private property are fundamental to a strong and productive economy. Protecting these rights encourages innovation, investment, and economic growth.

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

I believe we should eliminate unnecessary bureaucracy and streamline government agencies to improve efficiency, end wasteful spending on programs that do not provide measurable benefits to taxpayers, and cut excessive administrative costs while redirecting funds to essential public services.


IMMIGRATION

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

Strongly Disagree

I do not support sanctuary cities. America’s laws should be enforced, and people should enter the country legally. Those who are in the country illegally have already broken the law and should be subject to immigration enforcement.


EDUCATION

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

Strongly Agree

I believe education should be controlled by states and local communities, not the federal government. The Department of Education has added bureaucracy without significantly improving outcomes. Returning authority to states allows local leaders to tailor education to their communities, encouraging innovation, accountability, and better results for students.

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should not fund American education. No outside government should have influence over our schools, elections, or domestic policies. Keeping education free from foreign funding protects national sovereignty and ensures decisions are made by Americans for Americans.


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?

I believe the goal of the criminal justice system should be to serve and protect the people, uphold the law, ensure public safety, and hold offenders accountable while respecting the rights of all individuals.

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

Strongly Agree

I believe the government must protect children from sexual exploitation online by enforcing strong laws, holding offenders accountable, and ensuring that parents and communities have the tools to keep kids safe. Protecting children is a top priority and should not be compromised.

Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.

Strongly Agree

I believe Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any way into the legal framework of the United States. Our laws must be based on the U.S. Constitution and American legal principles, not foreign religious codes.


2ND AMENDMENT

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

I strongly support the Second Amendment and believe every law-abiding citizen has the right to keep and bear arms. The criminal justice system should protect public safety while respecting these rights. Responsible adults should be able to carry firearms freely across the state, with restrictions only for prohibited individuals and clearly defined sensitive locations. Defending gun rights is essential to freedom and community safety.


ABOUT YOU

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?

Very Conservative

I consider myself very conservative, reflecting my views on economic policy, social issues, foreign policy, and religious liberty.

Have you ever been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court? If so, please explain.

No, I have never been penalized for sexual misconduct in either civil or criminal court.

Have you ever been convicted of a felony? If so, please explain.

No, I have never been convicted of a felony.


VALUES

Government should recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being.

Strongly Agree

I believe the government should fully recognize and support parents fundamental right and responsibility to make decisions about their children’s health and education. Parents are best positioned to guide their child’s well-being, and government policies should respect and uphold that authority.

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

Strongly Agree

I believe that attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse. Children are not capable of making life-altering medical decisions, and anyone who forces or enables such actions should be held legally accountable.

Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.

Agree

I believe marriage is a union between one man and one woman, as ordained by God. I believe no government has the right to force pastors, religious leaders, or anyone to act against their beliefs. I also believe people should be free to make their own choices about other types of marriages without government interference.

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Agree

I support the expansion of gambling in Georgia. I believe it would be a valuable source of revenue for the state and could help fund public services, infrastructure, and programs without raising taxes.

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I follow the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, YHVH, and I believe that Jesus (Yeshua) is the Messiah. My faith guides my values and shapes how I live my life.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

I believe we need voter ID laws and citizenship requirements to ensure that only eligible citizens are able to vote. These protections help maintain the integrity and security of our elections.


EQUALITY

Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.

Strongly Disagree

I do not believe reparations should be given based on race. We live in a country with vast opportunity, and anyone who works hard, stays focused, and pursues their goals can succeed through their own effort.

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

I believe biological males should not be allowed to participate in women’s sports or occupy spaces designated for biological women, such as bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, women’s shelters, or prisons. Protecting these spaces ensures fairness and safety for women.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.

Strongly Disagree

I do not believe that man-made climate change is real and do not think it is a global threat requiring political action.

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

I believe fossil fuels, including gasoline, are the most reliable energy sources to meet the growing demand for electricity. They provide consistent, high-capacity power that ensures energy security and keeps costs stable for consumers and businesses
