Strongly Agree

I believe taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, whether through federal, state, or local governments or programs such as Title X. Government funding should prioritize protecting life, supporting mothers and families, and expanding access to healthcare and resources that offer real alternatives to abortion. I believe every human life has value, and our policies should reflect compassion, responsibility, and a commitment to protecting the unb

Life threatening situation only.

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree. I believe the Comstock Act should be enforced according to the law. I believe in protecting unborn life and upholding laws that safeguard the health and well-being of women and children. At the same time, I believe government should act within the Constitution, respect due process, and ensure women are treated with compassion, dignity, and care. ????????

Strongly Agree

I wholeheartedly agree! ???? Free enterprise and the right to private property are foundational to a strong, productive economy. Government should protect our freedoms—not control our businesses, property, or livelihoods. Let people work, build, create, and prosper! ??????

My Top Priorities to Eliminate Government Waste 1. Cut unnecessary spending and bureaucracy. We need to stop wasting taxpayers’ hard-earned money on bloated government programs, excessive administrative costs, and unnecessary bureaucracy. Every taxpayer dollar should be treated like it came out of our own household. 2. Demand transparency and accountability. Government spending should be open, traceable, and easy for the people to understand. No more hiding waste behind complicated budg

Separation of Church and State To me, “separation of church and state” means government should not establish or force a religion, while protecting every person’s God-given right to worship—or not worship—according to conscience. It should never mean removing God, faith, or biblical values from public life. I believe our Constitution protects religious liberty, freedom of conscience, and the right to live out our convictions while respecting the rights of others. ??????

Strongly Disagree

I believe Americans should never be forced by government to violate deeply held moral or religious convictions. At the same time, we must respect the dignity and equal rights of every person. Freedom must work both ways: government should protect individual liberty while ensuring people are treated fairly. We can uphold religious freedom, conscience, and equal protection without forcing citizens to surrender their beliefs. ??????

I believe everyone deserves access to quality healthcare, but I also believe in individual choice and preserving private healthcare options. Government should help ensure people can receive care without taking away their freedom to choose their doctor, insurance, or healthcare plan. We must also eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse and be responsible with taxpayer dollars. ??????

Agree

Healthcare Data & Privacy I believe technology and good information can help us understand healthcare costs, improve planning, and make better decisions about how resources are used. But we must also protect people’s privacy and guard against the misuse of personal health information or discrimination. We can pursue better healthcare solutions without sacrificing individual freedom, dignity, or personal privacy. ??????

Strongly Agree

National Security I agree. ???? I believe the Chinese Communist Party poses serious threats to America’s national security, including military power, cyberattacks, intellectual property theft, and economic competition. We must protect American innovation, strengthen our cybersecurity, secure our supply chains, and stand strong for American workers, businesses, freedom, and national security. We can pursue peace while remaining prepared to defend our nation. ??????

Yes, the U.S. relationship with Israel is important to me. From a biblical perspective, Israel is the nation God chose for a unique covenant purpose, and Jerusalem is a city God calls holy. ???? I believe America should stand with Israel, protect our national security interests, and pray for peace, justice, protection, and salvation throughout the region. “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” — Psalm 122:6 ???

Agree

I believe we should treat every person with dignity and compassion, but I do not support sanctuary cities that undermine federal immigration law or prevent law enforcement from cooperating with federal authorities. America can be compassionate while still respecting the rule of law, protecting our communities, and maintaining secure borders. We can do both—show mercy and uphold the law. ????

Strongly Agree

I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and returning control to states, local communities, parents, and teachers. I believe education works best when decisions are made closer to the students we serve. Parents should have a strong voice, teachers should be empowered, and every child—regardless of background—deserves access to a quality education, strong standards, and the opportunity to succeed. ??????

Strongly Agree

I believe foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education. Our schools should serve American students and families—not be influenced by foreign governments or foreign interests. Parents deserve transparency and confidence that what their children are being taught reflects American values, academic excellence, and the best interests of our students. ??????

Strongly Agree

I strongly believe parents have the fundamental right and God-given responsibility to direct their children’s health, education, and well-being. Government should support parents—not replace them. Parents know their children best and should have a strong voice in the decisions that affect their lives, while schools and healthcare providers work with families to help every child thrive. ?????????????????

Strongly Agree

I believe God created humanity male and female, as Scripture teaches through Adam and Eve. I believe children deserve love, protection, truth, and the freedom to grow without being pressured into adult decisions they may not fully understand. Parents have the God-given responsibility to guide their children, and we should always put the child’s safety, dignity, and long-term well-being first. Genesis 1:27 ??????

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree. I believe marriage is a sacred, God-ordained covenant between one man and one woman, established in Scripture. Government may recognize marriage legally, but it does not have the authority to redefine what God established. I believe we must stand firmly for biblical truth while treating every person with dignity, love, and respect. Marriage and family are foundational to a strong society. ????????

Disagree

I do not support the expansion of gambling without strong safeguards. While I believe adults have personal freedoms, we must recognize that gambling can become addictive and destructive to individuals and families. Any legal gambling should have strict restrictions, responsible-gambling protections, and safeguards designed to protect vulnerable people and their best interests. We should never prioritize revenue over people. ??????

My faith is the foundation of my life. I believe in God, the Bible as His Word, and salvation through Jesus Christ. I believe in prayer, biblical truth, compassion, personal responsibility, forgiveness, freedom, and the sanctity of life. I believe we are called to love people, serve others, stand for righteousness, and be a light in a world that desperately needs hope. ????????

Strongly Disagree

I disagree. I believe voters should be informed clearly and in advance that proper photo identification is required to vote. Election integrity matters, and reasonable ID requirements help protect the voting process while ensuring eligible citizens can exercise their right to vote. ???????

Strongly Disagree

I disagree. I believe every person should be treated equally under the law and judged by their character and circumstances, not their race. Our focus should be on creating opportunities, strengthening families and communities, and helping those facing real hardship without dividing Americans by race. We can acknowledge history while working together toward a stronger, more united America. ??????

Strongly Agree

I strongly agree. I believe women and girls deserve privacy, safety, fairness, and equal opportunity in women’s sports and women’s spaces. Biological sex matters, especially in settings involving physical competition, privacy, housing, and safety. We can treat every person with dignity and compassion while maintaining reasonable protections for women and girls. ??????

Agree

I believe we should be good stewards of God’s creation and take environmental concerns seriously, but I do not believe government should respond with extreme policies that hurt American families, jobs, energy independence, or our economy. We should pursue practical, responsible solutions that protect our environment while keeping America strong, affordable, and prosperous. ????????

I believe nuclear energy is one of the most reliable sources to meet America’s growing demand for electricity. It provides dependable, around-the-clock power with low emissions and can strengthen American energy independence. We should also responsib

Very Conservative

Very Conservative. I believe my values are rooted in faith, family, freedom, personal responsibility, and the Constitution. I support strong parental rights, traditional biblical values, secure borders, election integrity, limited federal government, state and local control, a strong national defense, energy independence, and protecting women and children. I also believe government should protect individual liberty while treating every person with dignity, compassion, and respect. ??????

No. Never.

No. Never.

The goal of the criminal justice system should be to protect innocent people, hold those who commit crimes accountable, uphold justice, and keep our communities safe. I believe victims deserve justice, law enforcement should be supported, and criminals should face appropriate consequences. At the same time, where appropriate, we should provide opportunities for genuine rehabilitation and restoration. Justice should be fair, consistent, and rooted in truth and personal responsibility. ??????

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree. I believe government has a responsibility to help protect children from sexual exploitation, predators, and harmful online activity. Children deserve to be safe both offline and online. Parents should remain the primary authority in their children’s lives, while government and technology companies should be held accountable for strong safeguards, transparency, and enforcement against those who target children. ?????????

Strongly Agree

Strongly Agree. I believe the United States must remain governed by the Constitution and laws established through our constitutional system. No religious legal system, including Sharia law, should replace or supersede American law. Every person has the freedom to practice their faith, but our courts and government must apply one constitutional legal standard equally to everyone. ????????

I believe gun ownership should be protected as a constitutional right, while public safety must also be taken seriously. Restrictions should be considered case by case, based on an individual’s actions, criminal history, and demonstrated threat—not broad restrictions that punish law-abiding citizens. We should enforce existing laws, protect due process, and keep firearms away from those who have legally demonstrated they are a danger to themselves or others. ??????
