Question Response Comments/Notes
1. Should all voters be required to show identification before voting? N* No poll taxes, and make voting easily accessible to all. Audits catch those who try to vote when they shouldn't.
2. Should public schools allow males who identify as females to compete in girls’ sports? U* Talk about real issues facing our community, like the cost of living crisis. They want us to argue about superficial non issues while we starve.
3. Should marijuana be legalized and sold commercially for recreational use? Y* Quit allowing every state around us to get the tax benefits. The "war on drugs" is a massive waste of taxpayer dollars.
4. Should increases in state government spending be limited to the rate of inflation plus population growth? U* I would have to educate myself further on the pros and cons of this. I do not have an informed opinion at this time.
5. Should Pennsylvania create a Lifeline Scholarship Program to provide scholarships to students in low-income households in the lowest-performing schools? Y* Investing in our own community members who want to better themselves through education or work training is always a yes, it pays off in spades.
