# ISSUE ANSWER
U.S. CANDIDATE QUESTIONS
Please answer accordingly using the drop-down on the right of the question. The optional explanations are limited to 120 characters and will not appear on comparison guides with other candidates.
1 Do you believe the First Amendment has been used to protect the rights of minorities at the expense of violating the rights of others? No
  If anything, I think it has been used for and against all citizens. I have also seen it protect minorities.
2 Do you agree with the right of an American citizen to keep and bear arms as a right under the Second Amendment? Constitutional
  Absolutely. That right is inherent and shall not be infringed. States like Oregon have continuously tried to subvert the 2nd
3 Do you believe the government should control information that is shared on social media? No
  Absolutely not! That is against the 1st Amendment of the Constitution
4 Do you support omnibus bills dealing with numerous subjects or items in one bill? No
  I do not. The only way I would is if it only had a couple items pertaining to the same subject.
5 Do you believe the American Rescue Plan Act authorizing Coronavirus Fiscal Recovery Funds has contributed to inflation? Yes
  Giving our money away when people and businesses could have been making their own has contributed.
6 Do you believe government taking over student loans is the cause for the increase in student loan debt? Yes
  I have a student loan and it was nothing to get it. If its made available, people will use it.
7 Do you think the government green energy policy is responsible for high fuel and natural gas heating costs? Yes
  I think that is a contributor but there might also be other causes.
8 Do you support increasing domestic oil production? Yes
  We should be energy independent.
9 Do you support the construction of additional nuclear power plants? Yes
  I absolutely do. Nuclear is one of the cleanest energy sources available.
10 How do you believe energy independence should be pursued?
  1. Support a balance of fossil fuels and green energy.
  2. Support wind, solar green, and electric energy in the Inflation Reduction Act.
  3. Drive energy prices higher so families and businesses use less energy.
  4. Other, explain.
 D
  We should support all options, but we should also support domestic oil production and refineries.
11 Do you support funding for infrastructure to protect the nation's electrical grid against an Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP)? Support
  I support this, but I question why all of a sudden this has been in the news.
12 Do you believe the government is prepared to counter cyber security threats? Yes
  I work in the tech industry and understand this threat. If we hired private businesses to do the work it would be much better.
13 Do you support categorizing violent political demonstrations as terrorism? Undecided
  It all depends on what the demonstrators have done. If they are violent then yes, but only if there is violence.
14 How important is it to U.S. sovereignty to finish the border wall and secure borders to prevent illegal aliens and illegal drugs from entering the U.S.? Vital
  The wall must be finished before we are no longer a sovereign country.
15 Do you support amnesty for those here illegally through practices of chain migration, birthright citizenship, the visa lottery, and arbitrary per-country immigration caps? Oppose
  The key word is illegally. Go through the proper channels to be here legally.
16 Do you believe our national debt is a national security risk? Yes
  Yes, we owe far too much to other countries and this compromises American sovereignty.
17 Do you support restricting the sale of U.S. land to U.S. citizens only? Yes
  I do. China and other nations should not be buying our lands.
18 Which objective of the Green New Deal do you think has been most effective in achieving?
  1. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions to control climate change.
  2. Fixing societal problems of inequality and racial injustice.
  3. Reviving the economy making oil wars obsolete.
  4. Interfering with free enterprise.
 D
  The green new deal is a joke!
19 Do you support reduction in livestock and the development of plant-based meat? Oppose
  Hell no! My family are cattle ranchers and I will never eat plant based foods.
20 Do you support the National Forest Service goal to do prescribed burns every 5 years to clear out ground cover that will burn some trees that could have been harvested first? Support
  Yes, just the prescribed burns though. They work well in our area of Oregon.
21 Should the federal government return to the states land it controls that is not for the purposes authorized by the Constitution? Yes
  Absolutely. Then the state should turn that over to the Counties.
22 Do you support the federal government setting standards to restore constitutional integrity to elections? Undecided
  I do support constitutional integrity but the states are to hold and govern their elections.
23 Do you think it is permissible for people to vote in more than one state? No
  No! This is unconstitutional
24 Do you think that non-citizens should be allowed to vote? No
  Hell No!
25 Do you support a mandate for nationwide vote-by-mail? No
  Hell No!
26 Do you support teaching critical race theory in K-12 schools? Oppose

27 Should biological males who identify as women be allowed to compete in women's sports? No
  Not at all.
28 Do you support cutting government spending? Support
  Yes I do. There are far too many government agencies that overspend and have nothing to show for it.
29 Do you support work requirements to receive welfare benefits? Yes
  yes
30 Do you support replacing Social Security by gradually transitioning to private retirement plans for future beneficiaries? Undecided

  No, it is not essential.
32 Do you support submitting giving control of the U.S. to the World Health Organization when they declare a world health emergency? Oppose
  Hell No! I will fight to keep us away from the WHO.
33 How would you overhaul the health care system?
  1. Increase funding for government agencies to enforce their rules under the current system.
  2. Pass a universal healthcare system putting everyone on a government-run plan such as Medicaid.
  3. Put patients and doctors in control of the own health care making it a competitive system.
 C
 
34 Do you support a national law legalizing recreational marijuana? Support
 
35 Do you support sanctions against countries that are allowing fentanyl related substances to be directly trafficked into the U.S.? Yes
  This is just part of our border problems and should be dealt with.
36 Do you support sending funds to Israel for their defense? Oppose
  They are doing just fine themselves.
37 Do you support Israel regaining control of the West Bank? Yes
  If Israel is in a fight for that land and win the battle then they should control it.
38 Do you support continuing to send funds to Ukraine until 2032 after sending $115 billion without any limitation on how much more is sent? Oppose
  Hell No! I will not vote for any spending bills that send money to foreign countries.
39 Do you see the World Economic Forum as a threat to U.S. sovereignty? Yes
  Yes I do, we are not a world government. We are the United States
