Issue Positions
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 2020.
- Do you generally support pro-choice or pro-life legislation? "Pro-Choice" (votesmart.org)
- In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket? "No" (votesmart.org)
- "Allow new and younger workers to have TRUE annuity accounts. This is often referred to as "Privatizing". This means that the worker will be able to direct their contributions into guaranteed investment accounts of their choosing. There are plenty of insurance companies with excellent credit ratings to choose from, with a wide range of programs. The worker will also be able to choose for themselves when they "retire", so if they wish to keep working past 65 and continue to make contributions, they may. They would even be able to make greater contributions to their fund if they choose. And, they would be able to pass any unused portion to their heirs." (nadinefrostforussenate.com)
- "Reduce the Federal Government (see above) in size and scope, which would produce a surplus in revenue. And remember, it's not forever. Over time the number of recipients will be reduced to zero. And at that time, the SS Administration can be virtually closed down, creating another savings in the Federal Budget." (nadinefrostforussenate.com)

The DoE uses its control of the purse strings to force States and local Districts to toe the line to whatever fad has taken hold in the hallowed halls of DC. The DoE should not have any mission other than to disburse funds to the states based on a per child basis." (nadinefrostforussenate.com)

| Pro-choice | Do you generally support pro-choice or pro-life legislation? | ||
| This is not an either/or issue. While I believe that such decisions should be between a woman and her physician, I believe that should mean an ADULT (over 18). I also cannot ignore ever expanding medical advances. I believe in the sanctity of the rights of all humans, including the unborn, and therefore tend to refrain from making blanket decisions either way. | |||
| No | In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket? | ||
| Yes | In order to balance the budget, do you support reducing defense spending? | ||
| I believe there should be no tax brackets, or income tax, for that matter. I believe in consumption taxes. And I support reducing ALL spending. | |||
| No | Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions? | ||
| I do not support the regulation of any campaign contributions. It's a free speech issue. People and organizations should be able to support any candidate they wish, without the government looking over their shoulders. | |||
| No | 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? | ||
| No country ever spent its way into prosperity. For economic growth, the Government should just get out of the way. Stop spending on pet projects for "economic growth", and stop reducing the funds that businesses have to expand their operations (thus increasing employment) by taxing them into oblivion. | |||
| No | Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards? | ||
| Emphatically: NO! No bureaucrat in DC can know what local students require. Bring the decision making back to the states, or better yet, the local school districts. | |||
| No | Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, thermal)? | ||
| No | Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions? | ||
| On one: If renewable energy is viable, the free market will promote it. If not, then it shouldn't be taking up space, or taxpayer funds. On two: Seriously? How do you "regulate" greenhouse gas emissions? Since they come from so many varied sources (including my Uncle Don), the only way to regulate is to ban. That is not going to happen. | |||
| Yes | Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")? | ||
| I would support deregulating the Insurance Industry, to allow for interstates commerce. My life insurance company is based out of Nebraska, and my Auto/Homeowner�s Insurance is based out of Maryland, but my Health Insurance has to be a Delaware Plan. I believe the free market and competition between Insurance Companies alone will drive down the cost of Health Insurance. I also do not believe in mandates of coverage, if Americans could choose their coverages on an a la carte basis, they could determine for themselves how much they need to spend. | |||
| No | 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? | ||
| I support more open borders, in the sense that we presently make it too difficult and expensive for persons to legally immigrate to our country, which encourages illegal immigration activities. Our nation needs immigration as a way of sustaining our population, as it always has. We are a nation of immigrants and will continue to be so. However, by not welcoming immigrants with much needed positive traits, we open up the black market to those whom we do not want entering our country. | |||
| No | Should the United States use military force in order to prevent governments hostile to the U.S. from possessing a nuclear weapon? | ||
| No | Do you support increased American intervention in Middle Eastern conflicts beyond air support? | ||
| When another state becomes a DIRECT threat to the US I may change my view. But for now, I don't believe we should be meddling in others' business. | |||
| 1) Reduction of Federal debt/deficit through reduction of regulatory agencies, and sprawling bureaucracy. 2) Term limits and repeal of "special privileges" for Congress. If Congress passes legislation that will affect the citizens they purport to represent, they better be ready to live under the same rules. 3) Abolition of Department of Education. |
