Larry Stafford on Welfare & Poverty

Libertarian challenger

No taxpyer funds for faith-based services

Q: Do you agree with the VoteMatch topic, �Allow churches to provide welfare services�?

A: Agree... as long as those services are privately funded... and aren�t financed by involuntarily taking money from taxpayers to be used by the churches.
