THE ISSUES
One thing you'll learn about me pretty quickly is that I'm a lawyer. And, true to form, I probably gave you more details than you were bargaining for on each of these issues.
But I also know not everyone has the time, or let's be honest, the desire to disappear down the "Sarah's Stance on All the Issues" rabbit hole. Whether you call it the TLDR or the CliffNotes version, I've included a short takeaway for each topic below. If something catches your interest, you can click through to read the full version and see not just what I believe, but why I believe it.
-
Public schools should not have to choose between fixing the roof and giving staff a pay raise. Keeping public dollars in public education is one of the smartest investments we can make in Colorado's future.
-
Groceries, housing, insurance...it all adds up. Government cannot fix everything, but it should stop making everyday life more expensive and start focusing on practical solutions that help families get ahead.
-
Safe communities start with strong constitutional principles and well supported first responders. We can protect individual rights while making sure our police officers, firefighters, and paramedics have the resources they need.
-
I cannot promise we'll always agree, but I can promise I will show up. If elected, you will still see me at community events, hear from me online, and know what I am working on long after the campaign signs come down.
-
The AI cat is out of the bag, but that does not mean we should stop asking questions. Let's innovate responsibly and make sure our neighborhoods, water, energy, and privacy are protected along the way.
-
Colorado Springs would not be Colorado Springs without our military community. We owe our service members and veterans more than our gratitude. We owe them policies that honor their sacrifice.
-
I believe campaigns should be won by conversations with neighbors, not by whoever has the deepest pockets. Transparency is how we keep politics accountable and make it possible for everyday people to run for office.
-
TABOR's goal of protecting taxpayers still matters. But Colorado in 2026 is a lot different than Colorado in 1992, and our budget should reflect the state we actually live in today.
-
Colorado Springs is growing, and that's a good thing. But our roads, water, energy, and infrastructure should be growing with us, not trying to catch up years later. Smart planning today means fewer headaches and lower costs tomorrow.
-
I believe we can secure our borders, follow the law, and treat people with dignity because the Constitution should apply to everyone, including the government.
