QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Did not answer
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
I believe every human life has inherent value and deserves protection. Elective abortion should be very limited, with exceptions to protect the life of the mother and in tragic cases involving rape.
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.
Agree
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
Did not answer
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.
Eliminate wasteful bureaucracy and duplicative government programs. Conduct regular audits of state agencies and require transparency in spending. End taxpayer-funded benefits and incentives for special interests and politically connected organizations. Reduce unnecessary regulations that increase costs for businesses and families. Prioritize core constitutional responsibilities like public safety, infrastructure, education, and veterans services before expanding government programs.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Separation of church and state means the government cannot establish or force a religion, while fully protecting every individual’s First Amendment right to freely exercise their faith. Our constitutional rights do not end when someone enters public service, a classroom, or a business. Faith has always played an important role in America’s history and values, and religious liberty must be protected from government overreach.
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?
Yes. Israel is one of America’s strongest allies in the Middle East. At the same time, America’s foreign policy should always prioritize the safety, security, and sovereignty of the United States.
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.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
Faith, family, and service are the foundation of my life. I believe our rights come from God, not government, and that every person has inherent value and dignity. My Christian faith guides how I serve others, lead with integrity, protect children and families, and stand for truth and constitutional freedoms. As a Marine veteran, husband, father, and community leader, I strive to live with humility, accountability, and a commitment to serving others before self.
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.
Did not answer
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.
Did not answer
What do you believe is the most reliable energy source that will supply the growing demand for electricity?
America’s growing energy demand requires reliable, affordable, and domestically produced energy. I support an approach led by dependable baseload power such as hydropower, natural gas, and nuclear energy.
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?
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.
Strongly Agree
Protecting children from exploitation and abuse is one of the most important responsibilities of government. Law enforcement must have the tools necessary to combat online predators, human trafficking, and the exploitation of minors while protecting constitutional rights and due process.
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?
Law-abiding citizens have a constitutional right to keep and bear arms. Public safety is best protected by enforcing existing laws, prosecuting violent criminals, improving mental health resources, and supporting law enforcement — not by restricting the rights of responsible gun owners. I oppose unconstitutional gun control measures that punish lawful citizens while doing little to stop crime.
