Questionnaire

General

This is a Republican primary race.  Do you promise, if elected, to abide by the RPT platform? And if not, please enumerate what problems you have.

Yes, I promise to abide by the RPT platform.

What best describes your political ideology most(circle only one).   
1.        Republican                     
2.        Grassroots                     
3.        Conservative
4.        Tea Party

A mixture of all 4. I am a REPUBLICAN voter that believes in the necessity of electing GRASSROOTS candidates with CONSERVATIVE values to fight the corruption inherent in the system. And I have certainly been TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY.

There's discussion about making major revisions to the RPT Platform. Please describe the nature of any major changes you support.

Any revisions should reflect the preservation of liberty and limiting big government. As for particulars, I would need to take every issue on a case by case basis to give anything close to a thoughful response.

Should the county GOP chair be involved with fundraising? Why or why not?

I can see the value of a chair that is seeking donations for the party but they should not be directing funds on their own accord.

Do you like the Steering Committee style of leadership currently in place or that of just a county chairman?

A steering committee is necessary. A chair should not be making decisions alone. 

Do you think the 'Republican' brand should be used by PACs in their names that may deceive voters? Why or why not?"

Absolutely not. It can too easily be used to mislead the public. 

Do you beieve that the county chair/precinct chairs should actively participate in at least one committee?

Ideally, yes. 

Are you willing to put in the time necessary to attend CEC meetings, additional committee meetings, training sessions, blockwalking, etc?

Yes, that is the job and it should be treated with the seriousness it deserves.

How do you believe precinct chairs should be involved in elections? (election judge, clerk, none?)

They should be guiding the voters of their precinct to the candidates that are best suited to help them towards a better future. I think they have a role in helping to find election judges and clerks and the like but should be able to chose to do those jobs themselves only if they wish. 

What's your position on Texas House Speaker Dade Phelan?

I don't know that much about him in all honesty, but I do appreciate that he signed the arrest warrants for the 52 Democrats that fled Texas to deny quarum and that he banned the use of the word "racism" on the floor while debating that particular bill.

Budget

Would you support legislative action to establish a salary framework (possibly related to the Gov. salary) for all taxpayer funded employees with a stipulation that elected officials be required to get voter approval to exceed that framework for their own salaries?

I would absolutely support any bill that removes the ability for elected officials to vote to give themselves raises. That power should lie with the taxpayer.

Other civil liberty

Do you support or oppose federal funding for Planned Parenthood and other agencies that perform abortions, both in the U.S. and abroad (even if they use money derived from other sources)?

I fully oppose the funding of any agency that traffics in the murder of the unborn.

Education

Do you support or oppose social programs in our schools (like C-Scope, Common Core, CRT, International Baccalaureate, SEL, etc.)? Why or why not?

I am entirely opposed to everything mentioned above. I could go on for hours with all the reasons why but I'll limit myself to saying simply that these programs are the single biggest threat to the future of this country. Leftist activists are pushing these things to make our children hate their parents, hate themselves, and hate America. They must be stopped.

Ethics

Is there anything in your background of an embarrassing nature that should be explained before your election? Arrests/Convictions? Bankruptcys?

No. 

At what point should the "right to life" or "personhood" be granted to new human beings (e.g., at conception, sign of heartbeat, 3 months of pregnancy, birth, 5 days old, etc)? What action, if any, will you take to reflect this in law?

Life begins at conception. There is no other acceptable stance on this issue. 

Should the county GOP chair be involved in any other political organizations, including PAC's, while serving a term as the chairman? Why or why not?

NO! Especially not a PAC. It invites corruption.

Immigration

What, if anything, should be done to protect our borders from illegal immigration?

I support finishing Trump's wall. I support increasing our presence at the border. I support declaring the cartels as terrorist organizations and fighting against human trafficing. I support the remain in Mexico policy. I support taking action.

Transportation

Do you support or oppose the referendum passed by both the MoCo GOP Executive Committee and SREC to allow voters, at the statewide level, to decide whether or not they want a particular toll road?

Yes I support that. I think those votes should happen in November to get the most participation.

Other

What does being a conservative mean to you?

Being a conservative means having a responsibility to stand up and do the right thing. The world is changing and it's not changing for the better. Each and every conservative, now more than ever, needs to raise their voices and speak the truth without fear.
