Issue Positions

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.

  • "Every life, born or unborn, is a precious gift from God. I will vote 100% pro-life and will champion pro-life causes and legislation in Congress. Unfortunately, the Biden administration has been the most pro-abortion White House in American history. This administration is trying every chance they get to use taxpayer resources to pay for and promote abortion. They want no limits on abortion, even up to the 9th month. I will protect life and also champion pro-family policies that will ease the burden of child-bearing for women and families." (www.mcdowellfornc.com)
  • "I’m ready to take on the establishment and fight to secure our border, end Biden’s disastrous economic policies, and protect the lives of the unborn." (x.com)

  • "Free, fair, and secure elections are essential to a functioning country. I will oppose all attempts to federalize elections. Not only is that unconstitutional, but politicians in DC have already screwed up enough. I don’t trust them to cut spending and secure the border, let alone administer our elections fairly. The vast majority of Americans believe you should show an ID to vote. States should only get federal grants if they require a voter ID to vote. We should also tighten restrictions on absentee voting, so that all votes are received by election day & signature verification is used to ensure voter fraud doesn’t occur." (www.mcdowellfornc.com)

  • "Our border is a complete disaster. Just last year alone, our country had more than TWO MILLION illegal immigrants (that were reported) pour across our Southern Border in addition to the crime and deadly drugs that they bring with them into our communities. For me, this issue is personal. 7 years ago I lost my brother Luke to a fentanyl overdose. No one should have to endure that heartache and grief. We must stop this madness that Biden has allowed to go on for so long." (x.com)
  • "President Trump knows I’ll have his back on fixing the crisis at the southern border." (x.com)
  • "We must secure the Southern Border and stop the flow of illegal drugs from flooding into our country. This isn’t just a talking point for Addison, it’s personal. His younger brother died of a fentanyl overdose, the same fentanyl entering our country daily due to Joe Biden’s failure at the border." (www.mcdowellfornc.com)
