Sarah Chaney completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2024. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Chaney's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
Collapse all
|- Low Taxes: In this difficult time with Bidenflation and the rising cost of living in Idaho, we must have a fiscally responsible government. Every dollar that I can put back in a taxpayer's wallet is another dollar that can be used to support their family.
- Education: Safe, Quality Public Schools I believe a quality education is the foundation in which all other issues rest upon. We must have strong schools that are properly funded. While choice is an important component of education, I support an all-of-the-above approach and will not sacrifice our public schools.
- Safe Communities: I stand with law enforcement and for strong borders. Safety in our communities is my highest priority. Our legislature must support policies that back the blue, tackle illegal immigration, and reduce the amount of fentanyl coming across our borders.
As a pro-life candidate, I believe it is critical to provide reasonable alternates for people who need them. Adoption is an important part of a pro-life culture. Unfortunately, there is an unreasonable amount of red tape and expense involved with legal adoption. I hope to have an impact on this issue as a legislator. While I do not support no regulation whatsoever, reform is beyond desperately needed.
