Candidate's Comments:
I would rather approach abortion from more effective prevention of pregnancy. I certainly believe that life begins at conception and I want to preserve life, but in a few cases (1 - 2%) especially for pregnant minors need to be attended to by parents, families doctors and bathed in prayer. I do not envy anyone involvement in these heartbreaking cases.

Candidate's Comments:
8. Males competing in women's sports puts women's rights in jeopardy. 9. Parents should be able to obtain professional counseling for children struggling with gender issues. I do not understand why any professional counselor would support the child's outcome. Usually those with body dysmorphia are moved toward general health. 10a In federal law sexual orientation is already a protected class in non-discrimination law. I'm not sure that Colorado should or has to mirror that law. 10b. Same thought as 10a.

X
14.
Parental Rights for Transparency in Education: Giving parents access to the curriculum and materials their children are learning in school and allowing them to decide whether or not their children should be exposed to certain ideas.
X
Candidate's Comments:
13. Healthy relationships are built on trust. It is unhealthy for children of all races to be taught to mistrust others based upon our past racist and oppressive lawmaking. It's 2020 not 1950.

17. As a general rule I support treatment being disclosed to parents. However, children who name parents as abusers need a different type of protection.
