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

Abortion has become a form of birth control.

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

If the mothers health is in jeopardy or if the baby wouldn't survive outside the womb.

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

Scientist call and organism life but the left call a fetus a "clump of cells" can't have it both ways.

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

Agree

a Life is a life no matter how it was conceived.

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

Strongly Agree

Yes, The Dobbs decision was the right call. States should control Abortion and if someone violates a states statue, they should be prosecuted.


ECONOMY

What is your position on the minimum wage?

I believe in a Minimum wage but not so high that employers can not meet the high cost of pay roll. Burger King is not supposed to be a career unless you're in management.

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

Strongly Agree

History teaches us that when the government leaves the market alone it does wonderful things.

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

Only US Citizens should qualify for any government assistance. Welfare isn't a life time paycheck.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

Nothing, our country was founded on religious principals. We ca not have a successful country without God!

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

Strongly Disagree

Individuals and businesses have their own moral compass and no one should be forced to do something that goes against their morals.


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.

B

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

Strongly Disagree

Your medical information should be between you and your doctor.


NATIONAL SECURITY

The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Strongly Agree

It has been proven that the CCP has put backdoors in all their electronics. Recently England's special boat unit comms and secure radios were transmitting to the CCP.

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

To me, no. In my opinion Israel is the reason there is no peace in the middle east.


IMMIGRATION

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

Strongly Disagree

Undocumented Persons have killed to many American citizens therefore I do not believe or support sanctuary cities.


EDUCATION

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

Strongly Agree

A one standard curriculum for all 50 states is ridiculous. Each state has it's own industry and students should be learning about what runs their state.

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly Agree

When foreign monies come into our educational system that system becomes beholden to the foreign investor and not American values in our educational system.


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

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

Strongly Agree

Yes. It's maddening that anyone would destroy their child's life with the parents decision not the kids.

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

Neutral

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Neutral

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I believe in my lord and savor Jesus Christ. My relationship with Jesus is what drives me daily but as a sinner I do fall short from time to time.


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

In war torn Iraq they had to present an ID and put a thumb print on their ballot. We show ID for everything else in this world, it just common sense to present an ID when Voting.


EQUALITY

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

Strongly Disagree

I did not own slaves so I refuse to pay people who were never slaves.

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

We need to protect and defend our daughters against weak men trying to invade womens spaces.


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT

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

Strongly Disagree

Weren't we supposed to be in an Ice age in the 80's?

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

Nuclear!


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?

Lean Conservative

I'm an independent conservative with Liberal views.

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

no

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

no


CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY

What should be the goal of the criminal justice system?

To prosecute everyone for the same crime equally. It is of my opinion that we currently have two tier system of Justice.

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

Strongly Agree

With the rise of social media it has been very easy for predators to have access to children under 18. I don't agree that the Government should have a say in what social media a minor has access to but the government should place huge restrictions on those convicted of crimes against children.

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

Strongly Disagree

The US Constitution is the founding law of our land and Sharia Law is not compatible with our founding documents.


2ND AMENDMENT

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

Lifetime gun ban for any felony involving a firearm or weapon. For non-gun felonies, restore Second Amendment rights after 10 years of continuous law-abiding conduct following full sentence completion. This focuses restrictions on higher-risk cases while allowing proven rehabilitation for others, balancing public safety and rights.
