I am an educator, single mother, and founder of an international human rights organization that defends religious freedom, and I want to advocate for legislation that champions conservative values and supports the American family. Throughout my career, I have brought principled leadership, fresh and innovative ideas, and a solutions-oriented focus to my work; and this is exactly what I will bring to our leadership in Richmond.

As State Senator, Tina will focus on protecting parents rights in education and expanding school choice in Virginia. Tina understands how detrimental the closing of schools has been to the most vulnerable of students and how dangerous politicized ideologies, such as critical race theory and diminished math and science curriculum, are to our children. She's worked tirelessly against these attacks on parental rights in Virginia and will work to promote school choice, so that parents are given real education options for their children. Our children deserve the innovation and opportunity that comes from robust competition. Parents deserve more educational choices for their children and their tax dollars should follow their students.

No.

I am opposed to diversity, equity, and inclusion and have worked to get rid of it in Virginia Public Schools. I have also helped parents file a lawsuit against the state for their equity policies which discriminated against certain students and was part of the movement to oppose CRT in our schools, including by helping to launch No Left Turn in Education in central Virginia. I have provided training courses for schools and businesses to help them counter DEI and CRT.

I have spent my career defending religious freedom and protecting the conscience rights of individuals. I am opposed to transgender policies that force individuals to violate their conscience or sexualize children and believe these are harmful to the rights of children. I believe parents have the primary and fundamental responsibility of protecting their children and the state has no business interfering with the role of the parent. I will work to ensure robust protections for religious freedom in the workplace and schools to ensure that no one is forced to violate their conscience or support ideologies that do not reflect their values and beliefs.

Yes, our country is built on the people and they should always have a voice in decisions affecting their well-being.

As a fiscal conservative, I believe that our community needs to live within its means and I would engage with the community to identify what is most needed to ensure the well-being of our community, values and our future.

I do not support them.

I do not support mandated shutdowns.

The ultimate authority are the people themselves and they have a personal responsibility to choose representatives that ensure the rule of law.

No national endorsements.
