Meredith Ryan completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Ryan's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
Collapse all
|- Whether you are a homeowner or renter or currently unhoused, I care about whether you have the resources you need. It is important to understand the limit to governmental social resources and to prioritize needful citizens here. Affordability is critically stretched for our citizens whether above or below the area median incomes. Tax structure, floors and ceilings on income contributions must be taken into account in fulfilling our responsibilities to one another as Coloradans.
- I am a strong supporter of both traditional and alternative educational resources and funding for persons of all ages. It would be a good idea to prioritize state stakeholder needs in our budget and perhaps reclaim for our taxpayers funds going elsewhere that afford other countries benefits such as healthcare and education that we don't enjoy.
- Development and utilization of alternative energy resources should be given strong support and priority when discussing energy needs and accessibility in general.
Equitable financing for small businesses and for individuals without discrimination -- eliminate usurious rate structures.
