Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
My values and belief system come from my Christian faith. I have been a lifelong and active participant in the life of my church. I am currently working with other church leaders to develop programs at the church that will inspire new generations to make faith a stronger part of their life. This effort is particularly important at a time when Christianity and its institutions are being challenged in society. Our institutions of faith are struggling to break through the distractions of modern culture and sustain our faith in God as the truest and strongest foundation for the life of our Nation and its citizens.
Considering all issues (social, economic, national security, etc.), which of these best describes you?
Very Conservative
Please defend your answer to the previous question by referencing your publicly available track record.
I have been a lifelong activist in the Republican Party and have worked to inspire a new generation of grassroots conservatives. I was elected a delegate to nearly every Republican state party convention in the past 12 years and have volunteered on many campaigns to keep conservatives in office. I have worked with leading Republicans to fight for stronger national security, including service on the White House national security staff. I have worked to advance the goals of conservatism through leadership in numerous organizations including service on the board of the Houston chapter of The Federalist Society, the nation’s preeminent association of conservative lawyers.
