Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
9>9 Personal answerYes, as long as they pass the same background checks as straight couples |
Social › Abortion
9>9 Personal answerPro-Choice, up until the day of birth. |
Social › Gay Marriage
9>9 Personal answerYes, although I would prefer not to have a Federal agency define the word "marriage" on my behalf, and thus leave "marriage" to religious/private groups and Civil Unions to the government. For instance, imagine two elderly, widowed sisters. They should be afforded the same tax breaks living together as a married couple, in my view. |
the Economy › Equal Pay
9>9 Personal answerNo, the current requirements in the Equal Pay Act of 1963 are already sufficient |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
9>9 Personal answerYes, require strict background checks, psychological testing, and training |
Crime › Police Body Cameras
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Drug Price Regulation
9>9 Personal answerYes; this would only be a few narcotics, and I would prefer the regulatory system to be that of Congressional and Executive approval, NOT at the hands of a sub-committee or FEMA. |

9>9 Personal answerYes, insuring people with pre-existing conditions drives up costs for everyone |
Social › Gun Buyback
9>9 Personal answerNo, this is a violation of the 2nd amendment |

9>9 Personal answerYes |
Social › Gender Transition
9>9 Personal answerYes; with parental consent of all living guardians and no Federal/Sate/Municipal subsidy, it should be their right. |
Healthcare › Mental Health
9>9 Personal answerNo, incentivize private companies to address this issue instead |
Social › Religious Freedom Act
9>9 Personal answerYes, but the owner must post a sign stating their beliefs and what they refuse |
Social › Transgender Athletes
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
9>9 Personal answerNo |

Foreign Policy › Iran
9>9 Personal answerNo, the U.S. should encourage Iran to disarm through diplomatic channels |
the Economy › Taxes
9>9 Personal answerLower the income tax rate and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations |
Elections › Mental competency testing
9>9 Personal answerNo; your competency test is earning the Vote, the "mandate" of the Citizens in these United States, and prior to taking Federal office, a doctor's examination is often published in numerous places. If we question the validity of those doctor's reports, then our problem still is not with the competency of a candidate, but rather, with the system that determines it. |
Foreign Policy › Mandatory Military Service
9>9 Personal answerNo, service should be a choice instead of an obligation |
Social › Racial Sensitivity Training
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Elections › Foreign Lobbying
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Education › Critical Race Theory in K-12 Education
9>9 Personal answerNo; Black Women are more likely to graduate from college, once enrolled, than any other demographic in the United States. Slavery was abolished by men (largely white) that opposed the evils being committed by Slave Owners (less than 5% of people from the South). Systemic Racism is a semantic creation that stands in direct opposition to the verifiable data-points, listed above. How is a nation is systemically bigoted against the people who are most likely to graduate from their undergraduate degree programs (once enrolled)? |
Immigration › Immigration
9>9 Personal answerYes, if they were born here |
Education › Student Loans
9>9 Personal answerNo, the Tax Code needs ought merely to be enforced without enormous subsidies for businesses/conglomerates/individuals that allow for people to legally avoid paying the taxes associated with their tax bracket. |

Social › Confederate Flag
9>9 Personal answerYes, each state should have the right to display any flag they choose |
Domestic Policy › No-Fly List Gun Control
9>9 Personal answerYes, if the government considers you too dangerous to board a plane you should not be able to buy a gun |
Social › Government Mandates
9>9 Personal answerYes; except for religious organizations and charities that have published, in their own literature or publically, that they oppose the use of contraception. |
Domestic Policy › Supreme Court Reform
9>9 Personal answerNo, reforming the Supreme Court is unconstitutional and would upset the balance of power |
Domestic Policy › Gerrymandering
9>9 Personal answerNo; "non-partisan, Independant" are just politically savvy buzzwords, aimed at not questioning the underlying issue, which is this: Who in the United States is this golden, perfect arbitrator? While problematic, gerrymandering requires parties win elections in Municipalities and States, in order to be able to win Federally, which is good. |
Immigration › Illegal Immigrant Detainment
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Social › Women in Combat
9>9 Personal answerYes, as long as they can pass the same physical tests as men |
Science › Mandatory Vaccinations
9>9 Personal answerNo, but hold parents criminally liable for transferring deadly diseases to other children |

9>9 Personal answerNo, social media companies are private and should not be regulated by the government |
Immigration › Border Security
9>9 Personal answerNo; increase funding to Border Patrol drastically. |

Domestic Policy › Patriot Act
9>9 Personal answerYes, but the sections involving surveillance and criminalization are too broad |
the Economy › Government Spending
9>9 Personal answerNo; lower and enforce corporate taxation, legalize, regulate, and tax marijuana, raise the tax on cigarette and alcohol sales marginally. |

9>9 Personal answerNo; but the opportunity should be readily available. |

9>9 Personal answerYes; in certain areas, where Border Patrol suggests, we should have physical barriers, but overall and most importantly, we should increase funding for high-level technological surveillance, across th entire thing. |

9>9 Personal answerYes, and we should create more social programs to help prevent and rehabilitate criminals |
Immigration › Skilled Immigrants
9>9 Personal answerIncrease |
Crime › Mandatory minimum prison sentences
9>9 Personal answerNo, and actually most States will only prosecute for Prison-time when you combine: Narcotics possession charge with both "Intent to Distribute" and/or Firearms charge. If you possess a legal firearm while convicted of being in the possession of illegal drugs, *you will still* receive a separate Felony Firearm charge.

the Environment › Animal Testing

9>9 Personal answerNo, torture is an ineffective form of interrogation |
Elections › Criminal Politicians
9>9 Personal answerYes; anyone who has the approval of the Municipality or State(s) to be present on the ballot, such that their supporters are great enough in number, ought to be allowed to take office, should they also succeed in meeting the requirements to win their race."We the People" deserve the right to choose candidates based on their merit and value to the populace. |

Healthcare › Medical Consensus
9>9 Personal answerNo, only when the advice was proven to harm the patient |
National Security › Foreign Assassination
9>9 Personal answerNo; war, despite only being Constitutionally declarable via Congressional approval, is no longer subject to these same rules, as we have clearly seen in conflict, over the last 20 years. Our enemies are primarily self-created (ISIL, ISIS, Al-Quaeda, etc), and in order to not go from conflict to Generational War, we need to bring ALL war declaration, back to Congress. |
the Economy › Domestic Jobs
9>9 Personal answerNo; government should maintain infrastructure for businesses, while monitoring worker safety with the citizens' tax dollars, not attempt to regulate businesses' executive functions. We need to create an environment conducive to luring in world-wide entrepreneurs. |

9>9 Personal answerNo; the company in question should be able to determine this based on revenues and internal policy. |
the Economy › Offshore Banking
9>9 Personal answerYes |
