Values
How we express our American values through the force of law reflects who we are as a society. These American values are based in the the Judeo-Christian ideals of the Founding Fathers. These great men included in the Constitution not only the Establishment Clause but also the Free Exercise Clause. Christina believes that there is no strict separation of church and state, and that the religious expressions of individuals should be accommodated in the public sphere.
Christina believes that the United States of America must value each life at the moment of conception. How we protect the innocent reflects on the national character. Therefore, Christina is pro-life.
Christina believes that according to the Constitution, marriage is an issue to be addressed by state laws only, and should not be a federal issue. Christina is in favor of traditional marriage, and would not extend special rights based on sexual identity.
As a supporter of equal rights for all, Christina believes that preferences based on race, gender, or any other arbitrary factor are not supported by the Constitution. As such, Affirmative Action is unconstitutional. By writing laws that perpetuate racial and gender preferences, lawmakers only continue to exacerbate the problems of the past. As an opponent of the ERA, Christina has already taken a stand against unconstitutional preferences, and she will continue to do so in Congress.
