Abortion & Reproductive Rights
The candidate states she is "pro-life" while supporting exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother. Her campaign opposes the Democratic party's abortion agenda and presents a restriction-oriented position with those listed exceptions.
Climate & Energy
No clear, detailed climate or energy policy position is presented; campaign materials emphasize protecting affordability (opposing policies that would raise utility rates) and infrastructure funding but do not endorse specific emissions targets, clean-energy plans, or fossil-fuel expansion. Public reporting notes the candidate is an energy consultant but that she did not respond to a candidate questionnaire on policy specifics.
Public Safety & Guns
The candidate expresses explicit support for the Second Amendment and for protecting the right to bear arms, and emphasizes support for police and tougher criminal-justice enforcement. The campaign opposes policies it describes as weakening public safety (e.g., provisions of the Safe‑T Act) and calls for stronger penalties for drug crimes and support for law enforcement recruitment and training.
