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
Life begins at conception, emergencies should be between the birth giving parent and their doctor/family NOT politicians.
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Never, that is murder by definition.
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Strongly Agree
Absolutely correct.
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.
Strongly Agree
As much as "Artificial creation of life" may be a touchy subject, it is still a created life.
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Strongly Agree
These drugs are PROVEN to be harmful to the pregnant person and still have harmful after effects on record, they should be banned in general.
ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?
There should be NO minimum wage, your labor and pay should be between you and your employer.
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
Correct, EVERYONE should have property rights and the ability to use free enterprise to start a business!
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
1. Eliminate Government Boondoggle and Ponzi schemes. 2. Double check any and ALL legislation to do with tax payer funded programs. 3. Investigate ALL programs funded by tax payer money every 6 months to ensure proper use of funds.
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
This usually refers to the Government staying out of religion and religious freedoms, but can also refer to the taxation of a church or religious organization, can you specify?
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
Absolutley NOT. Buisiness have a right to refuse service to ANYONE, and individual workers have a right to refuse to serve if they wish at anytime to seek employment elsewhere if necessary. Our campaign for Gilbert/Hickel 2026 respects these rights STRONGLY.
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 Medicare/Medicaid programs should be for the disabled and elderly but otherwise should only be for emergency treatment. Otherwise private heathcare insurance should be encouraged but NOT mandated.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Strongly Disagree
STRONGLY disagree, this is a violation of HIPAA and a breach of EVERYONE'S 4th amendment of the United States Constitution under the right to avoid undue search and siezure of person's or their property INCLUDING their records.
NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Strongly Agree
China does have these possibilities, but currently has NOT been threatening the United States.
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
Yes, this is due to regional importance and religious significance.
IMMIGRATION
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
Absolutely NOT. This is a violation of EVERY american's security and a National Security threat, they are NOT "undocumented migrants" they are Illegal Invaders of our country and AANYONE guilty of harboring them should be brought to trial for conspiracy, sedition and/or treason!
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Strongly Agree
States and communities should have the right to educate, NO have the Government intervene in the right of the people.
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.
Strongly Agree
Completely agree, we cannot have foreign influence upon educating our children.
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
Yes they absolutely should.
Attempts to physically or socially transition a child to the opposite sex constitute child abuse.
Strongly Agree
Absolutely true 1000% this does nothing but harm the child long term.
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
Absolutely right, freedom of religion is our 1st amendment right of the United States Constitution and shall be upheld, not perverted to coincide with mental health issues or delusions.
I support the expansion of gambling in my state.
Strongly Agree
This may be a great way to generate tax revenue for the state and everyone has the right to use their money as they see fit.
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
This would take too long, but I was raised Methodist originally.
ELECTIONS AND VOTING
People should be able to vote without photo identification.

ENERGY & ENVIRONMENT
