Ethnie Treick completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Treick's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- I decided to run based on my volunteer work. I work with women, many of whom face systemic barriers, on economic empowerment. The issues that keep coming up are affordable housing, mental health, access to transportation, and childcare. Their stories, and the issues they're dealing with, are at the heart of this campaign. I'm passionate about lifting or lessening those barriers to make an economy that works better for everyone.
- Over the last two decades, I've been working on the grassroots level in Colorado on Democratic issues and causes. My experience with leaders and activists across my community and state, on issues such as economic equity, workforce training, clean air and water, human service and housing, public education, and reproductive healthcare ensure that I am well prepared for the role of state legislator. I served for eight years on the Colorado BlueFlower Fund Board of Directors and fought to elect Democratic, pro-choice women to state and local office to protect choice. I know firsthand the importance of reproductive healthcare. During the delivery of my second son, I suffered extreme medical complications and almost died.
- My firsthand experience and knowledge of the legislative process make me uniquely qualified to represent our diverse community at the Colorado Capitol. Over the course of six legislative sessions, I worked with numerous stakeholders, built coalitions, negotiated policy, and helped pass legislation to improve the quality of life for everyone in our state. I worked at the Colorado Capitol for six years, advancing clean, sustainable energy policies such as the Clean Air Clean Jobs Act, Renewable Energy Standard and Community Solar Gardens. During that time, I served on the Green Jobs Colorado Advisory Council and the Advisory Board of the Renewable Energy Development Infrastructure Project.
