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 2024.

  • "The decision to terminate a pregnancy is a difficult and deeply personal undertaking. As a man, that is not my decision to make. Overturning Roe vs. Wade was strategically the worst political decision that the Republican party has made in the last 50 years. Overturning what was the law of the land for most American's entire lives has removed a rallying point for the GOP while fueling the fires of the Democratic party. It is clear that taking away reproductive rights is only going to alienate voters and cost the Republican party elections." (www.rickvalentineflynn4congress.com)

  • "As a gun owner, I’d like to see guns remain legal. That being said, if we don’t act now to curb the growing number of mass shootings and school shootings in our country, public opinion will swing so far against guns that they will eventually be outlawed altogether. Enacting sane gun legislation today is the only thing that can protect our right to own firearms in the future. As the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure."
