Social Values/ Moral Issues

Nothing is more important than standing up for our families and what we believe. That’s why I:

  • Voted to increase broadcast indecency fines to $325,000 per offense.
  • Voted for a law that reforms sex offender registration laws and strengthens laws preventing child pornography.
  • Co-sponsored legislation that would lock up the most violent criminals for life and would encourage states to keep their most violent offenders behind bars.
  • Voted for the Marriage Protection Amendment.
  • Voted for the “Pledge Protection Act”, which would bar certain courts from stripping out the phrase “under God” that is in our Pledge of Allegiance.
  • Introduced legislations that would require tough mandatory minimum sentences for convicted sex offenders who move into a neighborhood and fail to register with the local sheriff.
  • Voted to prevent human cloning. Private research on embryonic stem cells is one thing, but I do not support the President’s decision to allow taxpayer funding for research on new embryonic stem cell lines.
  • Voted to permanently eliminate the Marriage Penalty tax.
  • Voted to defeat an amendment that would have allowed abortions at military facilities.
  • Voted to prohibit taxpayer-funded abortions in the context of the new health care law.
  • Co-sponsored a bill to prevent all forms of taxpayer-funded abortion.  
  • Voted for “Megan’s Law”, which would require state and local enforcement agencies to notify parents if convicted child abusers move into their community.
  • Voted for a bill to prohibit transportation of a minor girl across state lines for an abortion in order to circumvent parental notification laws.

I believe that life begins at conception, and while I understand exceptions for cases of rape or incest, we have a responsibility to protect the unborn and prohibit taxpayer funding of abortion in this country. The moral and social values upon which this country was founded are still important today, and I will continue to stand up for family values in Washington.
