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 life deserves protection from conception.

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?

The free market creates a natural minimum wage and therefore no government minimum wage should be imposed.

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.

The Secretary of State chairs the Board of Commissioners of Public Lands. In the past, this board has provided loans for politically divisive projects. I will push for these loans to address critical infrastructure needs such as fixing our roads. I will work to form an easily accessible website of all the records this office holds. This will streamline business, bring transparency, and save taxpayers time and money. I will bring accountability by using best practices to prioritize efficiency.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

Did not answer


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.

Did not answer

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

Did not answer


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?

Did not answer


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.

Strongly Agree

Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

Strongly 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.

Did not answer

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Did not answer

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

Did not answer

Any mental health professional treating a patient with gender-identity or sexual-orientation issues should be required to affirm whatever the patient proclaims with regard to their identity.

Strongly Disagree


ELECTIONS AND VOTING

People should be able to vote without photo identification.

Strongly Disagree

I support the SAVE Act. This is only one step in securing our elections. Half a century ago, the legislature removed the Secretary of State's oversight on elections and handed control to unelected boards. I will fight to abolish the Wisconsin Elections Commission, clean the voter rolls and remove their cost, and put this office in charge of elections so voters have someone to directly hold accountable.


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.

Strongly Disagree

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

Fossil fuels and nuclear power.


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?

Did not answer

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

Did not answer

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

Did not answer


2ND AMENDMENT

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

I am a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment and a member of the National Rifle Association. I believe Wisconsin should become a constitutional carry state. The more that law-abiding citizens are restricted from owning firearms, the less they are able to protect themselves from criminals who ignore those same laws.
