100% agree! Look, taxpayers shouldn’t be forced to foot the bill for abortion providers like Planned Parenthood, period. That money comes out of hardworking families’ pockets, and a huge chunk of it goes straight to an organization that’s in the business of ending unborn lives. I’m all for women’s health clinics—real ones that do mammograms, cancer screenings, and actual family planning without the abortion side hustle—but if an outfit is pushing or performing abortions, find private funding

No, zero circumstances for elective abortion. Elective means ending an unborn baby's life for convenience — money, timing, career, not ready. Life starts at conception. That’s a human being, and government should protect the innocent, not allow it on demand.Only real exception is when the mother’s life is literally at risk. Rape and incest are horrific, but killing the baby doesn’t fix the crime — offer support, counseling, and adoption instead.Fund crisis pregnancy centers and real help!

Strongly Agree

You got that right! Human life deserves full legal protection from conception until natural death—no abortion, no euthanasia, no exceptions that devalue the innocent. Every human being, born or unborn, has that God-given right government must defend. We need strong laws plus real support for moms and babies through crisis centers and adoption. That's true conservatism and basic morality. Pro-life all the way!

Strongly Agree

Human embryos created through artificial methods like IVF are still unique human lives from the moment of conception. They deserve full legal protection just like any other unborn baby—no purposeful destruction for research, convenience, or anything else. Life is life, whether natural or in a lab. We need laws to protect these tiny humans and push ethical adoption or implantation instead of discarding them. Pro-life means all human life!

Strongly Agree

I had to look this up, it is already federal law banning the interstate transport of abortion-inducing drugs, and it should be strictly enforced right now—no ifs, ands, or buts. We don’t need new legislation; just uphold what’s on the books to stop shipping chemical abortion pills across state lines. This protects unborn babies from being poisoned in the mail and holds the abortion industry accountable. Pro-life conservatives have pushed this for years—let’s enforce it and save lives!

As I see it, “separation of church and state” isn’t even in the Constitution. It means the First Amendment stops the feds from establishing an official religion or interfering with your right to freely practice faith. The Founders wanted to protect the church from government control, not kick God out of schools, the public square, or everyday life. Liberals twist it to silence Christians. True religious liberty means faith belongs in America!

Strongly Disagree

Nope, absolutely not! Forcing individuals and businesses to provide services that violate their moral or religious beliefs is straight-up government tyranny. The First Amendment protects religious liberty, including the right to run your business according to your faith. No baker, florist, or photographer should be punished for living out their conscience. Real freedom means respect, not coercion!

Strongly Agree

I have first hand exposure to this threat, working in Silicon Valley. The Chinese Communist Party is a grave threat to the United States—militarily expanding to dominate the Pacific, launching constant cyber attacks, stealing our intellectual property worth billions, and weaponizing global trade to crush American jobs. We need America First toughness: tariffs, supply-chain decoupling, military buildup, and real enforcement to counter the CCP!

The U.S.-Israel relationship is extremely important. Israel is our strongest, most reliable ally in the Middle East and the only true democracy there. We share Judeo-Christian values, vital intelligence, and cutting-edge military tech that keeps America safer. Israel stands on the front lines against Iran, Hamas, and radical Islamic terrorism. Strong support for Israel is smart strategy and the morally right thing to do!

C is the closest match for me. Medicaid and Medicare should remain available for seniors and the truly needy, but no other taxpayer-funded programs are necessary. Government shouldn’t run or expand healthcare—that leads to skyrocketing costs, less choice, and worse care. We need free-market fixes like cross-state insurance competition, price transparency, and lawsuit reform to lower costs and boost quality. Pro-freedom, not bigger government!

Strongly Disagree

WoW, Government keeping a database of people’s medical illnesses to “assess economic burden” is straight-up Big Brother overreach and a massive privacy invasion. Your health records belong between you and your doctor, not in some federal system for bureaucrats to ration care by cost. Keep government out of our private medical lives!

I’m against raising the federal minimum wage. It hurts teens, minorities & low-skilled workers by killing entry jobs. Businesses cut hours, hire less or automate. Let free market set wages, not D.C. Strong economy beats mandates!

Strongly Agree

Free enterprise and the right to private property are the bedrock of any productive economic system. When people own what they earn and build businesses without big government meddling, innovation explodes and opportunity grows for everyone. Socialism and heavy regulation kill prosperity. Economic freedom built America—I will defend it!

My top 5 priorities to eliminate government waste: 1. Fully defund Planned Parenthood and every abortion provider. 2. Slash wasteful foreign aid to countries that don’t serve U.S. interests. 3. Wipe out all DEI, woke training, and radical climate programs. 4. Shrink the bloated federal bureaucracy and kill redundant agencies. 5. End pork-barrel earmarks and special-interest handouts. Let’s make government smaller, leaner, and accountable!

Strongly Disagree

No way! Sanctuary cities are dangerous nonsense. They protect illegal immigrants — including criminals — by defying federal immigration law and endangering American citizens. These policies encourage more illegal crossings, overload our resources, and reduce public safety. End sanctuary cities now and enforce the law. Put Americans first!

Strongly Agree

I strongly support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and local communities. This bloated federal bureaucracy wastes billions while test scores drop and schools push woke indoctrination. Parents and states know best—not D.C. bureaucrats. Local control means better schools!

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should be strictly prohibited from funding American education. China and Qatar have dumped billions into our universities to push propaganda, spy, steal research, and spread anti-American views. No foreign cash in our schools—keep it American-funded, American-run, and America First!

The goal of the criminal justice system should be to protect law-abiding Americans by swiftly punishing criminals, deterring future crime, and keeping dangerous offenders locked up. It’s about real justice for victims—not excuses, soft treatment, or social experiments. Support the police, enforce tough sentences, and put public safety first! Law and order forever.

Strongly Agree

Government absolutely has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation online. Big Tech platforms have let predators and porn run wild, grooming our kids for profit. We need strong age verification laws, real parental controls, and serious accountability for these companies. Protecting innocent children must come first!

Strongly Agree

Sharia law should never be accepted or incorporated in any form into the U.S. legal framework. The Constitution is our one and only law—not any foreign religious code. Sharia is totally incompatible with freedom, women’s rights, religious liberty, and equal justice. One nation, one Constitution!

No new restrictions on law-abiding citizens are needed—none. The Second Amendment says “shall not be infringed,” period. Public safety comes from prosecuting criminals, fixing mental health, and enforcing existing laws on felons and the dangerously unstable. Armed, trained Americans deter crime and stop mass shooters. More good guys with guns equal safer streets. Guns don’t kill people—criminals do!

Conservative

I’m a proud, unapologetic conservative Republican. Limited government, free enterprise, strong borders, America First foreign policy, traditional family values, religious liberty, and protecting innocent life from conception to natural death. Pro-military, pro-Second Amendment, anti-woke, and fully committed to making America great again!

No

No

Strongly Agree

Government should fully recognize and support the fundamental right and essential duty of parents to direct their child's health and educational well-being. Parents know best—not D.C. bureaucrats, teachers unions, or schools. No more secret social transitions or ideological indoctrination behind parents' backs. Parental rights first, always!

Strongly Agree

Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse, full stop. Kids are too young to consent to puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or surgeries that cause irreversible damage, sterility, and lifelong regret. Biology is real—this harmful ideology has no place near our children. Protect kids!

Agree

Traditional marriage is the foundation of a strong society and the best environment for raising children. We must defend it!

Disagree

No way! Expanding gambling in our state is a terrible idea. It preys on the vulnerable, fuels addiction, tears apart families, spikes crime, and acts as a sneaky regressive tax on working people. Government has no business promoting vice for quick cash—we need real jobs, family values, and strong communities instead!

I stand for the sanctity of life, traditional marriage, personal responsibility, strong families, and liberty given to us by our Creator. Faith first!

Strongly Agree

People should absolutely be required to show photo ID to vote. It’s common sense and essential for free and fair elections. We demand ID to buy beer, fly on a plane, or drive a car — voting should be no different. Without voter ID we open the door to fraud and destroy trust in our system. Secure elections now!

Strongly Disagree

No way! Reparations based on race are unfair, divisive, and downright un-American. No one alive today owned slaves, and making modern taxpayers pay for historical sins is reverse racism. We’ve already spent trillions on welfare, affirmative action, and civil rights programs. Real progress comes from strong families, education, hard work, and equal opportunity—not race-based handouts that pit Americans against each other. Judge by character, not color!

Strongly Agree

Biological males should not be allowed in women’s sports or biological women’s spaces—bathrooms, locker rooms, sorority houses, shelters, or prisons. It’s unfair to real females, destroys girls’ athletics, and puts women and girls at real safety risk. Biology isn’t bigotry. Protect women and girls!

Strongly Disagree

No way! Man-made climate change is wildly overhyped by alarmists to justify big-government control and trillions in spending. Earth’s climate has always changed naturally—CO2 is plant food, not poison. Urgent political mandates like the Green New Deal would destroy American jobs, spike energy costs, and hurt the poor while China keeps polluting. Real solutions: drill baby drill, nuclear power, and American innovation—not socialist schemes!

Nuclear power is the most reliable source to meet America’s growing electricity demand. It runs 24/7 unlike wind and solar. Safe, cheap baseload energy without the hysteria. Drill oil and gas too—nuclear is the real future! Energy dominance!
