| Question | Response | Comments/Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Should all voters be required to show identification before voting? | Y* | We show it for everything else, it's just common sense. |
| 2. Should the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act be amended to include "sexual orientation" and "gender identity," which could require public schools and other public facilities to open up restrooms and locker rooms to members of the opposite sex? | N* | There are only two genders: male and female. The rest have a mental illness. |
| 3. Should marijuana be legalized and sold commercially for recreational use? | Y* | There are numerus medical studies that show how Cannabis is helpful and has a medical need. |
| 4. Should increases in state government spending be limited to the rate of inflation plus population growth? | Y | |
| 5. Should Pennsylvania make cuts to the Educational Improvement Tax Credit (EITC) student scholarship program? | Y* | This is a state tax-credit program that encourages businesses to donate to approved nonprofit education organizations. With the recent spotlight on non-profits and mass amounts of fraud that come with non-profits, I believe eligible businesses that contribute to Scholarship Organizations should go directly to the school districts and have the school district award scholarships to students who earned it. |
