Strongly Agree

believe human life has inherent value and deserves legal protection. At the same time, I recognize that difficult situations can arise, and public policy should be guided by both compassion and respect for life. My focus is on supporting mothers, families, adoption, and policies that encourage a culture that values life while respecting the law.

Agree

I believe human life has value and should be treated with dignity and respect. At the same time, I support families struggling with infertility and recognize the importance of reproductive technologies. Any policy in this area should seek to protect human life while also supporting hopeful parents and medical innovation.

I support exceptions for rape, incest, and when the life of the mother is at risk. These are difficult and deeply personal situations, and I believe policy should protect both human life and women facing extraordinary circumstances. My focus is also on supporting mothers, families, adoption, and access to healthcare so that fewer women face these difficult choices.

Disagree

I do not believe taxpayer dollars should be used to fund abortion procedures. Public funds should be directed toward healthcare services that support women, mothers, children, prenatal care, and family health. Individuals may hold different views on abortion, but taxpayers should not be required to fund procedures they morally oppose.

Agree

Laws passed by Congress should be enforced as written unless they are changed through the legislative process or overturned by the courts. At the same time, any enforcement should respect due process, medical exceptions, and applicable federal and state laws.

Strongly Agree

Free enterprise and private property rights are cornerstones of economic opportunity, innovation, and prosperity. Small businesses create jobs, drive local economies, and help communities thrive. Protecting private property and economic freedom allows individuals to build wealth, invest in their future, and pursue the American Dream.

Neutral

Working families need relief, but the answer is not simply raising taxes. We should reduce wasteful government spending, grow the economy, create better-paying jobs, lower energy and insurance costs, and make it easier for small businesses to succeed. Prosperity is created by economic growth and opportunity, not by continually increasing taxes.

Strongly Agree

The national debt is unsustainable and places a burden on future generations. Government should eliminate waste, fraud, and inefficiency, prioritize essential services, and spend taxpayer dollars responsibly. Just as families and businesses must live within their means, government should do the same while promoting economic growth and opportunity.

1. Audit Federal Spending – Conduct regular independent audits to identify waste, fraud, abuse, and duplicate programs. 2. Eliminate Duplicative Programs – Consolidate overlapping agencies and programs that provide the same services. 3. Increase Transparency & Accountability – Make federal spending easier for taxpayers to track and require measurable results for major programs. 4. Reform Procurement & Contracts – Reduce waste in government.5. Invest in Prevention,

Disagree

I believe individuals and businesses should be treated fairly and respectfully, but I also believe religious liberty and freedom of conscience are fundamental constitutional rights. Government should seek reasonable accommodations whenever possible and avoid forcing people to violate sincerely held moral or religious beliefs.

"Separation of church and state means government should not control religion, and religion should not control government. It protects religious freedom for everyone while allowing people of faith to participate fully in public life."

I support preserving Medicare and Medicaid for seniors, disabled individuals, and those who genuinely need assistance. At the same time, I believe private healthcare and market competition play an important role in improving quality, innovation, and affordability. My focus is lowering healthcare costs, increasing transparency, and expanding access without creating new expensive government-run programs.

Disagree

Healthcare research and planning are important, but personal medical information should be protected. Government can study health trends and costs using anonymous, aggregated data without creating databases that track individuals and their medical conditions. Privacy and personal freedom must be respected.

C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies, should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger.I believe America's first responsibility is to the American people. We should secure our borders, strengthen our economy, reduce our debt, and address challenges at home before sending billions overseas. We can support allies and advance American interests, assistance should be strategic, accountable, when appropriate issue a loan, NOT giveaway

Agree

The Chinese Communist Party presents significant challenges to U.S. national security, including military competition, cyberattacks, intellectual property theft, supply chain vulnerabilities, and economic influence. The United States should protect its interests, strengthen domestic manufacturing, secure critical infrastructure, defend intellectual property, and reduce strategic dependence on adversarial nations while maintaining peaceful relations with the Chinese people.

Yes. Israel is an important ally of the United States in a strategically important region of the world. However, my first responsibility is to the American people and America's national interests. I support strong relationships with our allies, including Israel, when those relationships advance U.S. security, economic interests, and stability. America should be a reliable partner, but we must also ensure that our policies and resources are aligned with the needs of our own citizens.

Strongly Agree

Terrorism and violent extremism of every and all kinds are threats to U.S. national security and must be taken seriously. I oppose all forms of terrorism, whether foreign or domestic, religiously motivated, politically motivated, or ideologically motivated. Our focus should be protecting Americans, securing our borders, strengthening intelligence and law enforcement, and confronting any individual or organization that uses violence against innocent people. USA is a violence X Zone .

First stop drug & human trafficking! deport violant Criminals. America should welcome legal immigrants who want to work hard, obey our laws, contribute to our communities, embrace the opportunities responsibilities of living in the USA. As an immigrant myself, I believe in the American Dream. immigration system should reward people who contribute, respect our values, seek to build a better future for themselves & their families.Fair legal process, an immigration system that benefits both side.

Neutral

Immigration is a complex issue that requires both compassion and respect for the rule of law. I believe communities should treat people humanely and focus law enforcement resources on criminals, traffickers, and public safety threats. At the same time, immigration laws should be enforced, borders should be secure, and Congress should work toward practical, long-term solutions for individuals who are contributing members of society.

Agree

Education decisions are best made closer to students, parents, teachers, and local communities. I support giving states and local school districts greater flexibility while reducing unnecessary federal bureaucracy. My focus is improving educational outcomes, strengthening vocational and career training, and ensuring students are prepared for success in the workforce and in life.

Agree

American education should be guided by the interests of American students, parents, and communities—not foreign governments. I support transparency and safeguards against foreign influence in our schools and universities while encouraging academic cooperation, research, and cultural exchange that benefits the United States.

Agree

Children must be protected from irreversible medical decisions until they are mature enough to fully understand the long-term consequences. Parents must play a central role in these decisions, Any medical intervention involving minors must be approached with extreme caution. Never ever without Parental permission. Individuals age of making this decision must be 21y.o at least.

Agree

I believe marriage is a sacred institution ordained by God and that the traditional family is a cornerstone of a strong society. I support protecting religious liberty & the rights of people of faith to live according to their convictions. at the same time, I believe every person should be treated with dignity respect and fairness under the law. as your congressman, I will defend our constitutional freedoms, strengthen families , faithfully represent every constituent in Florida 14th district.

I believe in one and only God, personal responsibility, service to others, honesty, hard work, and treating people with dignity and respect. My faith teaches me to be grateful, help those in need, keep my word, and serve my community. While people may have different beliefs, I believe our shared values of integrity, compassion, family, and personal freedom can bring us together.

Strongly Disagree

Voting is one of our most important rights, and election integrity is essential to public confidence. Requiring photo identification is a reasonable safeguard that helps ensure every legal vote is counted and protected. At the same time, government should make it easy for eligible citizens to obtain identification and participate in the voting process.

Strongly Agree

I believe fairness, privacy, and safety should be protected, especially in women's sports and sex-specific spaces. At the same time, every person should be treated with dignity and respect. Policies should balance fairness, safety, privacy, and individual rights while avoiding unnecessary division.Thats Why God create a man and a women, God makes no mistake.

Nuclear power is the most reliable long-term source of large-scale electricity. Combined with domestic natural gas and a stronger electric grid, it can help meet growing demand while keeping energy affordable and reliable.

NO/Never.

NO/Never

Conservative

I am a constitutional conservative who believes in faith, family, individual liberty, secure borders, fiscal responsibility, a strong national defense, religious freedom, and the rule of law. My priority is lowering the cost of living, supporting small businesses, protecting Tampa Bay, defending our freedoms, and always putting America First while serving every constituent with integrity and respect.

Strongly Agree

Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation, trafficking, and online predators. Technology companies, law enforcement, parents, and communities should work together to create a safer online environment while respecting constitutional rights and individual privacy. Protecting children should be a top priority.

I support the Second Amendment and the right of law-abiding citizens to own firearms. The focus should be on enforcing existing laws, conducting background checks as required by law, keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals, domestic abusers, and those legally prohibited from possessing firearms, while protecting the constitutional rights of responsible gun owners.
