Shaun Murphy-Lopez completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2020. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Murphy-Lopez's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
| Collapse all
- Small Farms: The legislature is helping large livestock operations get bigger, as illustrated by their recent attempt to expedite the permitting process for large livestock farms. Shaun will support programs that put more money in the pockets of small farmers.
- Small Schools: The legislature has focused only on a Band-Aid solution to address dropping school enrollment. To increase school enrollment, we must create more economic activity, which will improve our quality of life and attract more young families to rural Wisconsin.
- Small Towns: The legislature has focused on providing benefits to wealthy investors through the manufacturing tax credit. Shaun will support tax credits that put more money in the pockets of rural residents.
