In her own words: the Tribune questionnaire
Melling says voters lost trust when government lost touch with them, and criticizes the Legislature for following national party pressure, gerrymandering, data center policies and weakening the judiciary. She wants fair maps, clean water and air, and balanced power among branches. [1]
On affordability she wants tax burdens rebalanced; she says taxes for Eagle Mountain families rose 183 percent while data centers received tax breaks, and she proposes tax law that favors small businesses and working families. On water she supports evidence-based, urgent action and community education. She answered Against on both Constitutional Amendment A and Amendment B. The Tribune notes Maloy did not answer the questionnaire. [1]
