For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2024.

  • "I received this heart-warming postcard from Sherri Stewart to pledge 100000% support for the Sanctity of Life. I don't know Sherri Stewart and also don't have her address. I kept wondering how I could let Ms. Stewart know of my firm resolve in fighting for the defenseless and bringing an end to this slaughter industry that profits from the most heinous crime known to mankind."

  • "REPEAL THE SIXTEENTH AMENDMENT" (maxforcongress.com)
  • "We the People must take control of our tax dollars to save the republic. If you agree, then you’ll love my plan; it actually drains the swamp. As lofty as it may sound, if We the People can get behind it, we can repeal the XVI Amendment and bring the spending approvals to the taxpayers through their tax filings." (maxforcongress.com)

  • "Our votes really don't mean anything. Why do politicians change overnight after they enter the Swamp City, D.C.? The answer lies in "self-preservation." They need money for re-election, and so they sell their souls to rake in millions. This separates politicians from their voters, who become beholden to dark money. They move away from the principle of "consent of the governed" to "consent of the lobbyist." I promise not to add a dime to my balance sheet while in Congress. The only thing I might do is write a book about my political journey." (maxforcongress.com)
  • "Did you know that supervisors/managers have legal protections called "qualified immunity?" They can falsify performance reviews, bully, name-call and humiliate employees with no adverse consequences. Employees cannot video/audio tape the abuse because it is illegal to do so. Companies find ways to lay the blame at the employee's feet to avoid legal liability. The employee has no legal recourse, or it is cost-prohibitive to seek the legal route." (maxforcongress.com)

We want to ensure our Constitutional right to own guns for self-protection and that shooting sports remain untouched, and I will defend the Second Amendment without apology or appeasement.
