Aurora Sentinel Endorses Su Ryden!

House District 36: Su Ryden

"State Rep. Su Ryden brought northern Aurora voters a bonus as a state lawmaker, that as expected, became a strong voice for small business, and unexpectedly became just as strong a voice for all state consumers.

Ryden was a quick study as a first-term legislator and was able to bring her real-world experience as a small public-relations business owner to the House floor and committee room tables.

Having dealt personally with the pain of being a health-care and jobs provider, she quickly became an advocate for legislation that brings relief on the regulatory and health-care front sooner rather than later.

But she also has proven herself to be a savvy and insightful advocate for making state government easier to maneuver and more accountable.

Her dedication to being accessible through regular coffee and town meetings has made her a welcome and important part of the state House, and Aurora voters will no doubt be rewarded in returning her for another term."  © Copyright 2010, Aurora Sentinel, Aurora, CO.
