QUESTIONNAIRE

RIGHT TO LIFE

Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should not receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).

Agree

Taxpayer dollars should not be used to fund abortion providers.

Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?

Every life is valuable and I support Idaho’s pro-life laws

Human life deserves legal protection from conception until natural death.

Strongly Agree

The lives of human embryos created through artificial methods ought to be protected from purposeful destruction.

Strongly Agree

We should protect human life at all stages and I oppose the purposeful destruction of embryos.

The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.

Strongly Agree

I support enforcing federal laws that restrict the distribution of abortion-inducing drugs where applicable.


RELIGIOUS LIBERTY

What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?

This principle ensures government does not control religion and protects the free exercise of faith. It does not mean excluding faith from the public square.

Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.

Strongly Disagree

Individuals should not be forced by the government to violate their sincerely held religious or moral beliefs.


NATIONAL SECURITY

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

Strongly Agree

The CCP presents serious economic, military, and national security threats.

Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?

Yes. Israel is a key ally that shares democratic values and strategic interests with the United States.


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. Medicaid and Medicare should remain available to those for whom lawmakers had in mind when the programs were created, but broader healthcare should be driven by the private market.

The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.

Strongly Disagree

This raises serious privacy and government overreach concerns

Minimum wage should be a market-driven approach and I believe wage decisions are best made at the local and business level.

Agree
