Question Response Comments/Notes
1. The Delaware Constitution should be amended to protect the right of parents to the control, custody, and care of their children from government interference, which requires the government to prove that it has a strong, compelling reason to restrict that right, such as in cases of abuse and neglect. (HB 319, 2022) O Note: Planned Parenthood Survey Question: Do you support the ability of teenagers under the age of 16 to confidentially access safe and legal abortion? Answer: "Yes."

2. Public schools should seek to strengthen the parent-child relationship, and should not be required to implement or integrate expansive and comprehensive sex education curriculum that includes LGBTQIA+ role play, sexual practices, and identities. (HB 199, 2021) O Note: Endorsed by Delaware Stonewall Alliance. "Advocate for Gender Sexuality / Gay Straight Alliance clubs in schools elementary through college."

3. Delaware law should protect fairness and the integrity of women’s sports. (HB 199, 2021; SB 227, 2022) O Note: Sponsored HB 199, to add sexual orientation and gender identity to the Delaware Constitution.

4. Individuals and faith-based entities should have the right of conscience to freely live out their sincerely held convictions regarding human sexuality and conception, without fear of government infringement or retaliation. (HB 199, 2021) O Note: Sponsored HB 199, to add sexual orientation and gender identity to the Delaware Constitution.

5. Abortion is the act of violently ending the life of another human being. Lawmakers should work to promote the value of and protect human life from conception to natural death, versus expanding abortion access through all 9 months of pregnancy. (SR 24, 2022; HB 40, 2022; SB 235, 2022; HB 140, 2022; HB 455, 2022; SB 343, 2022; HB 460, 2022). O Note: Planned Parenthood Survey Question: What, if anything, should Delaware do to secure and expand access to abortion given the expected surge in patients from other states that have restricted it? Answer: "We are moving in the right direction, but we need to do more. Although Medicaid cannot cover abortions, we should have a state program in place to fund abortions for women who qualify for Medicaid. We should also mandate that all state insurance plans cover abortion services. And we should pass a constitutional amendment to protect the right to abortion. During the 151st General Assembly, I was proud to cosponsor and support legislation expanding abortion access and to protect abortion providers. And I look forward to working with Planned Parenthood and other organizations and individuals to ensure that women in Delaware--and women who come to Delaware for abortion services--can secure accessible, affordable abortion services."

6. Assisted Suicide, the act of deliberately assisting or cooperating in helping someone terminate his or her life, should not be legalized in Delaware as an end-of-life option. (HB 140, 2022) O Note: Sponsored HB 140, to legalize assisted suicide.

7. A State of Emergency declaration extended beyond 30 days should depend on the consent of the people of Delaware through the General Assembly. (HB 49, 2021; HB 247, 2021). -
8. The right of Delawareans to keep and bear arms, as protected by the US and DE Constitutions, should not be infringed. Better enforcement of current laws to prevent crime versus more restrictive gun control is needed to protect public safety. (HB 450, 2022; SB 8, 2021) O Note: Co-Sponsored HB 450, prohibiting the manufacture, sale, offer to sell, transfer, purchase, receipt, possession, or transport of "assault weapons."

9. To preserve the integrity of our elections, the legislature should strive to eliminate opportunities for fraud in the election process. (HB 15, 2022; HB 25, 2022; SB 320, 2022) O Note: Sponsored HB 25, to allow same-day voter registration.
