Policy Positions

Maine Congressional Election 2018 Political Courage Test

Abortion

1. Do you generally support pro-choice or pro-life legislation?
- Pro-life

2. Other or expanded principles
- Life begins at conception. I support life from conception to natural death.

Budget

1. In order to balance the budget, do you support an income tax increase on any tax bracket?
- No

2. In order to balance the budget, do you support reducing defense spending?
- No

3. Other or expanded principles
- Why would anyone want to undermine our ability to protect our country by downsizing our military? Cut waste and prosecute fraud are great goals for the defense budget as they are for every segment of the government!

Campaign Finance

1. Do you support the regulation of indirect campaign contributions from corporations and unions?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- Not at this time.

Economy

1. Do you support federal spending as a means of promoting economic growth?
- No

2. Do you support lowering corporate taxes as a means of promoting economic growth?
- Yes

3. Other or expanded principles
- Reducing taxes and simplifying the tax code gives a huge boost to our economy! Why does anyone want to punish success with higher taxes and more regulations?

Education

1. Do you support requiring states to adopt federal education standards?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- I believe in local control where parents have a more direct say in what their children learn.

Energy & Environment

- No

2. Do you support the federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions?
- No

3. Other or expanded principles
- I do support limited government funding for research and development of renewable and clean energy.

Guns

1. Do you generally support gun-control legislation?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- No law will stop people from using guns to kill. Violence and not guns is the problem. Violence is a very complex societal problem that must be addressed in a multifaceted way. Let's start by helping to keep families together!

Health Care

1. Do you support repealing the 2010 Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare")?
- Yes

2. Other or expanded principles
- Let's allow free market practices to influence the insurance industry and not the federal government. Socialized medicine, like they have in the UK, kills children and the elderly.

Marijuana

1. Do you support the legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes?
- No

2. Other or expanded principles
- As a man of science I know that marijuana is a gateway drug and that it is a teratogen to the developing brain. It adversely impacts memory and motivation - that's why they call it "getting stoned!"

National Security

1. Should the United States use military force in order to prevent governments hostile to the U.S. from possessing a nuclear weapon?
- Yes

2. Do you support increased American intervention in Middle Eastern conflicts beyond air support?
