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
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I believe abortions can be performed when perfecting the life of the mother, but during the procedure efforts should be taken to protect both the mother and unborn baby.
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
Government should focus on creating an economy where wages rise because businesses are growing, investing, and hiring—not because of one-size-fits-all government mandates that can hurt small businesses and reduce opportunity.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
· Increase transparency and accountability in how taxpayer dollars are spent. · Conduct regular audits to identify waste, fraud, and abuse across state government. · Modernize government systems to improve efficiency and reduce unnecessary costs. · Protect taxpayers by promoting disciplined budgeting and long-term financial stewardship.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
The Founders understood that America could only survive with a moral and virtuous people, and faith has long played an important role in shaping the character of our communities and country. Religious liberty is one of our most important freedoms, and people of faith should never be told they have to leave their beliefs behind when participating in public life or public service.
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
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
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
America’s relationship with Israel is critically important because Israel is one of our strongest allies and a key defender of Western values in a dangerous region. America and Israel are both nations founded on enduring ideals, and that alliance is rooted in shared commitments to freedom, democracy, and religious liberty. As a Christian, supporting a strong Jewish state and standing with Israel’s right to defend itself and its people is deeply important.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Neutral
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Agree
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
Marriage is a God-ordained, sacred and legal union of one man and one woman. No government has the authority to alter this definition.
Strongly Agree
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Strongly Disagree
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I recognized at a young age that I was a sinner in need of a savior. I made a decision to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, and experience His unconditional love, grace, and mercy. Today I have a personal relationship with Christ, spending time reading my Bible daily, praying regularly, and trusting God to guide my steps as I walk by faith.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
EQUALITY
Reparations should be given to people on the basis of race.
Strongly Disagree
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
ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
Man-made climate change is a global threat and requires urgent political action.
Neutral
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
I believe in an all-of-the-above energy strategy because energy security is national security, and America needs reliable, affordable, domestically produced energy to meet growing demand, support economic growth, and remain globally competitive.
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
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?
The goal of the justice system is to protect the public.
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
Sharia law should not be accepted or incorporated in any form within the legal framework of the United States.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
The Second Amendment is a fundamental constitutional right, and the focus should be on enforcing existing laws and keeping firearms out of the hands of criminals—not creating new restrictions that burden law-abiding citizens.
