Veterans and Military
As the son of a Vietnam veteran and a grandchild of World War II veterans, Ryan deeply honors those who have served.
Healthcare
Texas has the highest number and the highest rate of uninsured citizens in the nation; yet, we have turned away billions of dollars that we could be using to provide healthcare for hundreds of thousands of Texans.
Criminal Justice Reform
Texas has more prisoners than any other State or any European country, of those more than 46,000 are incarcerated for possessing small amounts (less than a sugar packet’s worth) of drugs.
Property Taxes
Texas’s over reliance on property taxes to raise revenue and the constant intentional underfunding by the Texas Legislature of our counties and school districts have forced more and more of the total texas tax burden onto property tax payers.
Public Education
Ryan has devoted the last six years to serving on his local school board and working to improve public education in House District 96. At the same time, our current leadership in the state has systematically worked to funnel money out of public education and it’s time for a change.
