| Collapse all
- I am unapologetically pro-life. Every individual, born or unborn, informed or healthy, young or elderly, has been given the inalienable right to life. I will always fight for life, especially for those who have no voice.
- I am unapologetically pro-second amendment. The right to keep and bear arms was a right ensured by our forefathers and that provides for recreation and self defense, while also preventing absolute tyranny. I will always fight to maintain our second amendment rights!
- I am for the traditional family, for the traditional distinction of genders, and for quality education that prepares our children for real-world productivity, rather than being watered down by harmful political ideologies.
