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?

Life of the mother, Rape/Incest

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?

Supporting small businesses, consumer confidence and economic growth continue to be successful ways to driving wage rate increases.

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.

Anything that creates undo affordability issues for Wisconsin citizens. -Healthcare costs continue to rise. At minimum creating more transparency in healthcare and medication costs and push to lower these costs. -Regulation, lowering burdensome regulation that just create government jobs -Eliminating the woke agenda that schools can't afford and parents don't want


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

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

The First Amendment only prohibits a government established church. I am a Christian, and that faith helped establish my values. Candidates are voted into office largely because of shared values with constituents. I as many candidates will vote based on our values.


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. We must protect programs people have paid to support their entire careers such as Medicare and Medicaid. We have seen a government-run healthcare system has made healthcare more expensive to citizens, driven up red tape for healthcare providers and has in many ways only created bigger government.

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

Neutral

Tracking individuals would be wrong, but aggregated numbers would allow analyzing programs and understanding potential waste without putting a life at risk.


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?

Yes. Besides generational shared values, they are a strategic ally in the region that help counter regional threats.


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.

Agree

Parents need to have more say in their children's education. In many cases woke agendas are pushed on children without the knowledge of parents and taxpayers. This is also a transparency issue.

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.

Strongly Agree

I support the expansion of gambling in my state.

Neutral

Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.

I am Catholic and share many values of the Catholic faith

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

EQUALITY

Strongly Agree


ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
