Anthony Thompson completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Thompson's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Public education is critical to our long-term success. We must appropriately fund our public schools and the Area Education Agencies that support them.
- We need to build our economy from the community up, in large part to get away from the "too big to fail" dilemma. We do this by supporting small businesses. We do this by diversifying our agricultural landscape and markets. We do this by supporting good-paying jobs, because when we have a strong middle class we keep dollars circulating within our state. We do this by implementing policy that encourages competitive markets to work.
- We must protect our natural environment: our water, our soil, our forests. These natural resources provide for our sustenance and our recreation.
