For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2022.
Pro-life | Do you generally support pro-choice or pro-life legislation? | ||
I am pro-life and I will be supporting pro-life legislation. I believe in the sanctity of life and protecting the civil rights of the unborn. I was told by the doctor that I was never going to be able to have children and God has blessed me with 4 athletic, intelligent and smart children. |
No | In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket? | ||
Yes | Do you support expanding federal funding to support entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare? | ||
I feel the elderly should be getting paid more money. The money that our elders are getting is not enough for their current standard of living. And, there should be raises according to their standard of living. I also believe that Congress should not be borrowing from Social Security funds |
Yes | Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions? |
Yes | Do you support increasing defense spending? | ||
There should never be a price on what we need to protect our Country and keep our military advanced. |
Yes | Do you support federal spending as a means of promoting economic growth? | ||
Yes | Do you support lowering corporate taxes as a means of promoting economic growth? | ||
Yes | Do you support providing financial relief to businesses AND/OR corporations negatively impacted by the state of national emergency for COVID-19? | ||
If the economic growth is because of the Pandemic. I just do not like instances where the government is taking advantage of the taxpayers money. When you lower taxes, it's a way for businesses to build their infrastructure, contribute to their employees, expand business and hire more employees. It is important that these companies get up and running to let the supply chain continue. I do not support companies taking the money and not opening. If this happens, the money should be paid back with interest. The companies should not be able to take the money and then file bankruptcy. |
No | Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards? | ||
I do not because I believe the federal government needs to balance their budget, and keep education practices with our teachers, parents, principals and students. |
No | Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, geo-thermal)? | ||
No | Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions? |
Yes | Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")? | ||
Yes | Do you support requiring businesses to provide paid medical leave during public health crises, such as COVID-19? | ||
Obamacare is not affordable for some people. |
Yes | Do you support the construction of a wall along the Mexican border? | ||
Yes | Do you support requiring immigrants who are unlawfully present to return to their country of origin before they are eligible for citizenship? | ||
There is more to this question than just saying yes. When they first come here, yes they should go back. The Dreamers are here and they have had babies and more babies. If those Dreamers are here and working and not breaking the law, there should be something done to promote citizenship. We need to know where these people are, are they taking advantage of the system, and if they are not here to make America better, they should go back to their country. |
Yes | Should the United States use military force to prevent governments hostile to the U.S. from possessing a weapon of mass destruction (for example: nuclear, biological, chemical)? | ||
Yes | Do you support reducing military intervention in Middle East conflicts? | ||
Most of these countries are allies with each other, then they want the U.S. to help them rebuild their country. We cannot be the police of the World. We cannot keep fighting for these countries while we put our soldiers at risk. |
Yes | Do you generally support removing barriers to international trade (for example: tariffs, quotas, etc.)? | ||
The United States needs to get paid their share of tariffs. |
My first priority if elected is: 1. To thank all of the constituents for choosing an honest representative and go within our District and to Washington to protect the Constitutional rights of people, while protecting life. 2. Garner financial support for building the Wall and reform illegal immigration. 3. Protect the Sanctity of Life and "Civil Rights" of the unborn. |
