| No | Do you support expanding federal funding to support entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare? | ||
| Yes | Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions? | ||
| All contributions should be tracked and reported for fairness - I would also highly support bills that would limit total contributions from inside and outside of the campaign to the maximum of the salary of the total terms limit... Example a 204,000 per year of six years would cap total solicitations of political campaigns to $1,224,000 max for all contributions including external as mentioned in the question. | |||
| Yes | Do you support the protection of government officials, including law enforcement officers, from personal liability in civil lawsuits concerning alleged misconduct? | ||
| There has to be a certain level of immunity balanced with a firm and fair discipline structure while not facilitating a level of fear from performing the necessary duties of certain tasks. | |||
| Yes | Do you support increasing defense spending? | ||
| I believe we should audit and cut wasteful spending and put more into defense and securing our country! | |||
| 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 | Do you support providing financial relief to businesses AND/OR corporations negatively impacted by the state of national emergency for COVID-19? | ||
| I would support limited support for relief; however, currently we need to re-open and stop bleeding the country by restrictive business practices that seem to only affect small businesses and churchs. | |||
| No | Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards? | ||
| ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! States Rights Tenth Amendment - the people of the state should have the right to have higher standards than that the federal government dictates. | |||
| No | Do you support government funding for the development of renewable energy (e.g. solar, wind, geo-thermal)? | ||
| Yes | Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions? | ||
| At a very minimal limit for general public safety measures, there has to be a balance in blatant pollution and the balance to providing a successful and prosperous economy. | |||
| No | Do you generally support gun-control legislation? | ||
| The Second Amendment allotted for militias and the people to amass the SAME abilities as a tyrannical government should one become apparent over its subjects. | |||
| Yes | Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")? | ||
| No | Do you support requiring businesses to provide paid medical leave during public health crises, such as COVID-19? | ||
| Public Health Crises should be alleviated by the agencies that deem it necessary and not to burden the businesses that are equally harmed. | |||
| 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? | ||
| 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? | ||
| A fair amount of the conflicts are caused by our presence in an area that we have little reasons except for resources favorable to our financial interests. | |||
| No | Do you generally support removing barriers to international trade (for example: tariffs, quotas, etc.)? | ||
| We should never allow a foreign power to have an advantage over American production we should have matching minimum tariffs on imports as exports if not import fees ten percent higher to help secure competitive advantages over foreign currency manipulations. | |||
| Top priority is to protect our future education to make Oklahoma competitive globally not locally, ensuring that education is academic based and not social dynamic / personality based trainings. Providing true protection of the unborn including IVF babies that are unused/implanted. |
