QUESTIONNAIRE
RIGHT TO LIFE
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.
Agree
Under what circumstances should an elective abortion be allowed?
Under the cases of rape or incest, or where the mothers life is in danger
Abortion providers, including Planned Parenthood, should receive taxpayer funds from federal, state, or local governments (including Title X grants).
Strongly Disagree
The Comstock Act, which bans interstate transportation of abortion-inducing drugs, should be enforced.
Neutral
RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Individuals and businesses should be required to provide services even if it would violate their moral and/or religious beliefs.
Strongly Disagree
What does "separation of church and state" mean to you?
Exactly what it says. The government does not have any business in religion. The two should be separate. All people also have the freedom to worship in the way they see fit to themselves.
NATIONAL SECURITY
With regard to America's foreign policy, which view most closely resembles yours: A) The United States should intervene whenever freedom is threatened. B) The United States should selectively help countries trying to grow democracy and fight tyranny. C) The United States has become too involved in others' policies and should remain focused on issues regarding our own sovereignty unless in imminent danger. D) The United States should stay out of foreign conflicts completely.
"C" is my answer. We cannot spend American taxpayer money to be the police of the world BUT we must protect cargo traffic ways and protect against nuclear powers that could destroy the world and the United States.
The Chinese Communist Party poses serious military, cyber security, intellectual property, and global economic threats to the United States.
Agree
Is the United States' relationship with Israel important, and if so why?
The bible states that Israel will be the last nation in the end of times. As a Christian nation, we should always stand up and protect Israel.
Islamic terrorism is a threat to the United States' national security.
Agree
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" is my answer.
The government should keep a database of people with various ongoing medical illnesses to assess the economic burden of treatment.
Neutral
ECONOMY
Free enterprise and the right to private property are essential elements of a productive economic system.
Strongly Agree
People who can afford to pay more taxes should do so in order to provide relief for working families.
Disagree
The government should cut spending in order to reduce the national debt.
Strongly Agree
List your top 3-5 priorities to eliminate government waste.
1. Remove the thought that all money must be spent if in your budget by September 30th each each because your budget would be reduced the next fiscal year. This is for government agencies. 2. Reduce or stop excessive spending of money in foreign countries. 3. Reduce the number of people on welfare programs which do not need to be there. Get the government out of the welfare business except for homeless people, mentally challenged people, and seniors.
IMMIGRATION
Who should be allowed to immigrate to the U.S. and under what circumstances?
People who apply for VISAs and desire to become American Citizens. They should meet our requirements and should come to America only if they accept English and they want to be an American Citizen
I support the existence of sanctuary cities to protect undocumented persons.
Strongly Disagree
EDUCATION
I support eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and giving control back to states and communities.
Agree
Foreign governments should be prohibited from funding American education.

We don't need foreign beliefs in our education system. America Strong and America Proud!!
CRIMINAL JUSTICE & PUBLIC SAFETY
Government has a responsibility to protect children from sexual exploitation during online activities.
Strongly Agree
2ND AMENDMENT
What restrictions on gun ownership are needed to protect public safety?
Guns don't kill people, People kill people. The only restrictions on gun ownership is that convicted felons should not be allowed to own guns. There are no other restrictions. It is in our constitution and I believe in it!
ABOUT YOU
