Immigration & Border
The candidate supports strengthened immigration enforcement, explicitly backs ICE, and pledges to increase federal enforcement to dismantle cartels, stop traffickers, and remove dangerous criminals. He also favors prioritizing Americans over non-citizens for public benefits and workforce opportunities and calls for ending programs like H-1B that he says undercut American workers.
Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate opposes abortion and describes it as a moral tragedy, criticizing laws that expand taxpayer-funded abortion access and supporting protections for unborn life while advocating support for mothers. The campaign platform explicitly rejects broad abortion access and opposes Oregon’s recent expansions of abortion rights.
Climate & Energy
The candidate has publicly criticized cap-and-trade style climate legislation and has worked with or spoken for organizations associated with climate-change skepticism. His public communications record emphasizes opposition to aggressive climate regulations and frames such policies as poorly designed or economically harmful.
Public Safety & Guns
Supports law enforcement/public safety and has acted to oppose gun-control measures and organize pro-Second Amendment events, indicating backing for gun rights alongside emphasis on public safety. Specific policy details on background checks, red flag laws, or assault-weapon restrictions are not present in the cited materials.
