Senate Conservatives Fund Endorsement Questionnaire

The Senate Conservatives Fund is a grassroots organization dedicated to electing strong conservative leaders to the United States Senate. They are not affiliated with the Republican Party or any of its campaign committees. SCF "seeks to bring bold conservative leadership to Washington by supporting candidates who have the courage to fight for the timeless conservative principles of limited government, strong national defense, and traditional family values." They only support candidates who have the courage to:
- Stop Spending
- Repeal ObamaCare
- Enforce Immigration
- Defend the 2nd Amendment
- Ban Bailouts
- End Earmarks
- Protect Life
- Adopt Term Limits
|
In the 2010 election cycle, SCF helped elect five conservative standouts:
Pat Toomey (PA),
Marco Rubio (FL),
Rand Paul (KY),
Mike Lee (UT), and
Ron Johnson (WI).
