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).
Disagree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Certainly in cases of rape, incest, when the life of the woman is in danger, when there is little hope of a healthy delivery, and in any other case in which the doctor deems necessary.
Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.
Disagree
The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.

ECONOMY
What is your position on the minimum wage?

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.

NATIONAL SECURITY
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.

Agree
