QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
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
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I do not believe elective abortion should ever be allowed and to help prevent unwanted pregnancies I support better research into effective contraceptives.
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Disagree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.
Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
My priorities are restoring trust in Congress through term limits, banning congressional stock trading, and ending self-enrichment in public office. I will fight to reduce our crushing national debt by eliminating wasteful spending and restoring fiscal discipline, while holding powerful corporations accountable when they harm Americans or undermine competition.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Religious freedom is one of America's founding principles. Many of our forefathers came here seeking freedom from religious persecution and built protections into our Constitution to ensure that government could never dictate matters of faith. The role of the state is not to control conscience or belief. Our rights come from God, not government, and religious liberty must be protected from oppression and control.
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 - Our healthcare system is failing patients. Costs keep rising while consumers have less choice and less transparency. We need a simpler system that puts patients in control, with clear pricing, fair competition, and the freedom to choose the coverage that fits their needs. Greater competition among insurers and healthcare providers will lower costs, improve quality, and reduce the influence of special interests that profit from the current system.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
I do not trust the government to possess this information without the risk of misuse. History shows that power, once granted, is rarely surrendered. Protecting individual privacy and limiting government overreach are essential safeguards of a free society.
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
C - America First should be the guiding principle of our foreign policy. We are not the world's police, but we have a vested interest in global stability. However, we cannot effectively lead abroad if we are weak at home. A secure border, strong economy, and sound finances are essential to protecting American interests around the world.
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?
Israel is an important ally in the turbulent Middle East, but no foreign nation should influence American policy through political pressure, financial interests, or public relations campaigns. U.S. leaders have a duty to make decisions based solely on what is best for the American people. Israel should be treated as a valued ally, but by the same standards we apply to every foreign partner.
Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.
Agree
My primary concern is not terrorism, but the preservation of American values and institutions. America welcomes people of all faiths, but successful immigration requires assimilation into our constitutional system, respect for individual liberty, and a commitment to our shared civic culture. When any group, religious or otherwise, seeks to place its own legal, political, or social system above the Constitution, it threatens the freedoms that make America an unparalleled and remarkable nation.
IMMIGRATION
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
We are a nation built by immigration. All are welcome who arrive legally, embrace our shared values, put America’s interests first, and are prepared to assimilate into our civic culture.
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
The federal government exists to protect its citizens. As a nation of laws, immigration laws must be enforced. Cities that undermine this responsibility jeopardize public safety and should face appropriate legal and financial consequences.
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
Education is not a federal responsibility. Matters unrelated to protecting the American people should be left to state and local authorities. Centralizing these decisions in Washington invites waste, fraud, and abuse.
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Neutral
More information needed
VALUES
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
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I am blessed to come from generations of Christians, including pastors. God is central to my life, and I rely on Him for wisdom, guidance, and strength. I am running for office because of the stability and blessings He has brought into my life, and I want to help others experience the same. Jesus Christ showed us how leaders should serve, and I will look to Him as my guide in the halls of Congress.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
The peaceful transfer of power is a hallmark of the United States and an example to the world. Protecting election integrity requires confidence that only eligible voters cast ballots. Strong, transparent safeguards help preserve trust in our elections and protect our republic.
EQUALITY
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
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
Nuclear energy is our best option today, but we need safer, more effective waste disposal. I also support expanded geothermal research, especially for meeting household energy needs.
ABOUT YOU
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
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?
Conservative
I have been a Republican my entire life, but the party does not control me. The parties are damaging this country in their pursuit of power and control. Division gives them power and takes it from the people. I believe in small government, the sanctity of life, personal freedom, responsibility, serving God first, caring for His creation, and treating others with respect. We need principled, independent leaders guided by common sense.
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
For too long, the federal government has allowed corporations to put profit ahead of public safety. In doing so, it has neglected its fundamental duty to protect the American people. It is time to restore accountability, reclaim public oversight, and demand higher standards.
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Gun violence demands serious attention to its root causes, particularly among young men—not reflexive blame of the firearm. We should strengthen families and hold parents accountable when their negligence enables harm. Parents must be engaged in their children’s lives, rather than leaving communities to bear the consequences of their actions or inactions.
