Ballotpedia survey responses

Joseph Struck completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2022. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Struck's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- The General Assembly must lead by example. I will write a bill that strengthens our ethics laws on day one, increasing the waiting period to become a lobbyist after leaving office and allowing the inspector general to subpoena elected officials without permission.
- Our prison system does not nearly enough to rehabilitate offenders. The state takes on excessive costs housing returning prisoners. We need to invest in in-prison education that allows every prisoner to take classes toward an associate's degree while in prison. Those that enroll in these courses have a 40% lower chance of recidivism. I will write this bill in the first year of office.
- Obstructive zoning laws impede on the ability to build multiunit housing, and as a result we see higher rents and home costs across the state, particularly in Chicago. I intend to eliminate single family zoning laws across the state to increase housing substantially and allow more options at lower costs for all.
