Hello and thank you for your time. My name is Alex Ryckman. I am standing for senate district 21 because I want to be part of a movement to make a Colorado a place for everyone to be welcome, safe, and ambitious.
Alex is an active member in his community and creates waves to enact change. He is a member of Mapleton Education Association and regularly interacts with politicians to advocate for what his community deserves. He is not afraid to dig in his heels and stand alongside to say what needs to be said for his community. He has the follow through, the vision, and the work ethic to earn your vote and represent Senate District 21.
Alex is a product of Colorado public schools and universities. He is a current public school teacher who works with students, families, and community members. Education is a right for all children that not only helps families but helps grows community. He knows the impact educational institutions have had on the community of Senate District 21 and that our community deserves a fighting chance.
Alex brings people together because he walks alongside them. He has witnessed the changes, the stresses and joys, of living in Colorado for the past 3.5 decades. He deeply understands the hurdles and difficulties of the working class and respects the people who he would be representing. He understands that Colorado is very different than it was in the past. The hurdles have gotten taller and difficulties have become more drastic.
