Issue Position: Conservative Values

Issue Position

Conservative Values: My values are a product of our families and of my Christian faith. The solid foundation that my parents and other people of faith have laid has given me a foundation on which to stand. I will stand firm on principle, to do the right thing and fight for the things we believe in. I know you want someone as a Representative who will defend our conservative North Georgia values when they come under attack in our legislature and courts. I am not scared to stand up to the liberal Atlanta mindset.

My relationship with God has always been an important part of my life. Christian principles are an important part of my everyday approach to life and to making decisions. It is the basis of my enthusiasm to display a servant --leadership approach to public office just like I have in work, family, and in community activities. I'll always be there to defend the sanctity of human life, traditional marriage, and our right to prayer.

Pro Life:I am pro-life. I support adoption as a positive solution. Government should support policies that facilitate the adoption process, thus making it easier to place children with eligible couples. I will promote and work to enact policies to this happen. I oppose taxpayer funding of abortions, the gruesome partial-birth procedure, and support laws that require parental notification and consent where minors are involved.

Today with scientific advances that were unthinkable just a few short years ago, our society will face serious moral and ethical issues. In dealing with these issues, I believe the sanctity of life must be the priority and basis upon which these policies are made. Creating life only to end it and use it for research is wrong.

Defending Religious Freedom: During the 2016 session a lot was said about pastor protection and religious freedom. You can look at my voting record. I am for both and will work to see that our values are represented in Atlanta and defended.

Protecting Prayer: Our nation was founded on religious freedom, and I believe every child and every person in Georgia has the right for reflection, meditation, or prayer during the day. I support voluntary prayer in all schools and oppose any restrictions on the exercise of that right
