Strongly Agree

Taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund abortions. Americans hold deeply different views on this issue, and no one should be compelled through their tax dollars to support a procedure they morally or religiously oppose. Public funding should instead be focused on healthcare services that enjoy broader public support and benefit all citizens.

In cases of rape and incest as well as the health of the mother.

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree

Agreed. Human life has inherent value and should be protected from its earliest stages, regardless of how conception occurs. Human embryos created through artificial methods are still human beings in the earliest phase of development and deserve the same dignity and protection from purposeful destruction as any other human life.

Strongly Agree

Agreed. States have the right to enact and enforce laws within their borders regarding abortion, including restrictions on abortion-inducing drugs. If a law such as the Comstock Act is determined to be valid and applicable, it should be enforced according to its terms. Respecting the rule of law and the authority of states to regulate conduct within their jurisdictions is an important principle of our constitutional system.

My view is that wages should be determined by employers and market conditions, not by a government-set minimum wage. I’m also skeptical of the push toward a “living wage,” since what counts as a livable standard is subjective and changes over time.

Strongly Agree

1. Annual audits of government-funded programs. 2. Annual reapplication and/or recertification for government-funded benefits. 3. Prosecution for fraud related to government-funded programs.

To me, separation of church and state means the government cannot establish an official religion or interfere with the free exercise of faith. Every American has the right to worship—or not worship—without government involvement. The First Amendment protects religious liberty and ensures people can freely live out their beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

Individuals and businesses should not be forced to provide services that violate their moral or religious beliefs. In a free society, people have the right to choose where they work and do business, and customers also have the freedom to support businesses that align with their values. Respecting conscience rights protects individual liberty and maintains a balance between personal freedom and market choice.

Strongly Disagree

Governments should not keep and/or disseminate personal health information - even if unidentifiable - of its citizens.

Strongly Agree

he Chinese Communist Party poses significant military, cyber, economic, and intellectual property threats to the United States. America must strengthen national security, protect critical infrastructure, defend intellectual property, reduce dependence on China, and ensure our economic and military interests are protected from foreign adversaries.

Israel is America's strongest ally in the Middle East and a stable democracy that shares our commitment to freedom, democracy, and the rule of law. From my faith perspective, Israel also holds special significance as the historic homeland of the Jewish people and the birthplace of the Judeo-Christian values that have helped shape Western civilization and American ideals.

Strongly Disagree

Absolutely not. Sanctuary cities undermine the rule of law by limiting cooperation with federal immigration authorities. No community should shield individuals who are in the country illegally from lawful enforcement actions. We are a nation of laws, and those laws should be applied fairly and consistently across the country.

Strongly Agree

Education is best managed at the state and local levels, where parents, educators, and leaders are closest to students and can respond to their needs. States should have the flexibility to set policies that fit their communities rather than a one-size-fits-all approach from Washington. Despite decades of federal involvement, student achievement has not improved as expected, while bureaucracy and administrative costs have increased.

Strongly Agree

American colleges and universities should not accept funding from foreign governments. Such funding can create risks of foreign influence over research, curriculum, or policy decisions. Our education system should remain accountable to American students, families, and taxpayers—not foreign interests. Protecting institutional independence helps ensure education remains focused on national priorities and academic integrity.

Strongly Agree

Parents play the most important role in their child’s upbringing and should have a strong voice in their education and healthcare decisions. Education works best when families, teachers, and communities work together rather than decisions being centralized at the federal level. I support returning greater control of education to parents, teachers, and local communities so decisions best fit students’ needs and focus on academic excellence.

Strongly Agree

I believe minors should not undergo irreversible medical or social interventions related to gender transition. These are life-altering decisions, and children may not have the maturity to fully understand long-term consequences. Any concerns about gender dysphoria should be addressed through comprehensive mental health evaluation, counseling, and careful medical oversight, with a focus on understanding and supporting the child holistically.

Strongly Disagree

I support separation of church and state, meaning government should not impose religious definitions of marriage. Marriage is a civil/legal institution, and the government should not restrict it based on religious doctrine or define it through theology. People should be free to love and marry without government interference, while religious institutions remain free to define marriage within their own beliefs.

Strongly Agree

Yes, especially for charitable gambling and sports betting. Gambling opportunities should be regulated fairly and applied consistently across the state, rather than being limited or effectively exclusive to certain operators. Expanding legal, transparent gambling can generate revenue for communities while ensuring equal access and consistent rules for all providers.

I believe in one God and that Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again, and will return to judge the living and the dead. I value faith, the rule of law, limited government, and individual rights, including Second Amendment protections. I support fair competition in sports, including preserving women’s athletics, as well as lower taxes and a business-friendly environment that encourages growth and opportunity.

Strongly Disagree

Absolutely not. Voting is a fundamental right, and requiring photo ID is a reasonable safeguard to ensure election integrity. The goal should be to confirm that only eligible voters cast ballots, protecting trust in the system and ensuring free and fair elections for everyone.

Strongly Disagree

Heck no. America is not perfect, but it offers broad opportunity for success regardless of background. No one alive today was involved in slavery or directly enslaved. It is unjust to assign guilt or financial responsibility to individuals for events that happened generations ago, and policy should focus on equal opportunity moving forward rather than race-based reparations.

Strongly Agree

I strongly agree. Men and women are biologically different, and those differences matter in sports and in sex-segregated spaces like bathrooms, locker rooms, shelters, sororities, and prisons. These protections are important for fairness in athletics and for the safety, privacy, and dignity of women and girls.

Strongly Disagree

No. While we should be responsible stewards of the environment, I believe climate change is often framed in overly political terms. The Earth has always gone through natural climate cycles throughout history. We should focus on practical conservation and sound policy rather than alarmist claims or large-scale wealth redistribution agendas.

Nuclear energy is the most reliable option to meet growing energy demand. Advances in technology have significantly improved safety and efficiency, making it a stable, low-emission, and dependable power source. As energy needs continue to rise, expan

Conservative

No.

I consider myself conservative when it comes to protecting Americans’ rights, upholding the rule of law, and defending Second Amendment freedoms. I support a limited government that respects individual liberty and avoids interfering in personal decisions best left to individuals and families.

The criminal justice system should uphold the rule of law by holding individuals accountable for their actions and protecting public safety. It should deter crime through fair but meaningful consequences. Justice should be timely, based on the facts of each case, and applied consistently—not driven by political agendas—while ensuring truth is established and accountability is served when warranted.

Strongly Agree

Yes. One of the core responsibilities of government is protecting its citizens, especially children, from exploitation and abuse. That includes safeguarding kids from sexual exploitation online. We need a strong criminal justice system that prioritizes victim protection, enforces laws effectively, and holds offenders fully accountable.

Strongly Agree

None. Law-abiding citizens should not have their rights restricted, and existing gun laws are already sufficient. The focus should be on enforcing current laws consistently and ensuring criminals who use firearms in violent crimes are held fully accountable with appropriate consequences, rather than creating additional restrictions that impact responsible gun owners.
