Candidate's Comments:
We have a fundamental right to free speech everywhere, all the time. I don’t understand why at a work place, a college campus, or anywhere else would prevent free speech and therefore a free speech zone is not needed. All are welcome to voice their opinion - conservatives and liberals alike.

Candidate's Comments:
Parents make healthcare decisions for children all the time. While I personally don’t agree with parents who choose counseling for gender identity issues of children, I certainly would not stand in the way of parents who choose to do so. In any case, counseling is a much better choice that hormones and surgery for young children.

Candidate's Comments:
As a Catholic, I believe in life from conception to natural death. Although there may be a few exceptions for abortion (e.g. life of the monthly), in general I believe the sanctity of life must be protected.
